"I had an older three tab shingle roof that needed to be replaced. Mr. Anthony was fantastic. He explained everything he was going to do before hand so that I would understand. I needed to have my roof replaced quickly because my insurance company was about to drop me if I didn't get it replaced. Mr. Anthony replaced my roof promptly and helped give me the documents and pictures I neededfor my insurance. I got a great roof and I'm pleased with the quality and service."

"It went fantastic! They went above and beyond to get my roof replaced. Not the very cheapest but not the most expensive. Always get 3 estimates and choose one in the middle, right? Almost always works! Had a little carpentry that had to be done and they did that as well. Excellent work all around! If you need roofing, be sure Mac Bros is one of your estimates! Should have posted this sooner but it kept slipping my mind."

"I sourced Copper Roofing, LLC as they came highly recommended from a dear friend. These guys are AWESOME! They ended up replacing almost every roof in my neighborhood through their referral program, which I was paid $300 per roof they installed. They specialize in Atlas chalet shingles, which are an obsolete, discontinued product which there is a current class action lawsuit against. Give them a call for all your roofing needs, tell them Mark sent you!! ?"

"They did a good job installing insulation, drywall, doorframes and doors, and molding. The floating and painting was professional as well. Because they were coming from Baton Rouge, the traffic ate into their time on the job. This caused the project to take longer than we’d hoped. Over all, an honest and professional business. I wish them the best."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Springfield, LA

A slate roof features thin tiles of natural stone installed over a solid deck and underlayment. Formed under intense heat and pressure, slate is exceptionally durable and delivers a distinctive, high-end look. Because the material weighs far more than asphalt, most homes need added structural support before installation. 

While upfront costs are higher and routine inspections are a must, many homeowners choose slate for its unmatched longevity and curb appeal.

Slate stands out for its 50- to 200-year life span, low maintenance, and classic aesthetic. It’s fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and often boosts resale value. 

On the flip side, slate runs far more per square foot than asphalt, weighs up to four times as much, and demands a contractor who specializes in the material. Tiles can crack on impact, and repairs cost more because the work is slow and precise. If your budget and structure can handle it, slate delivers top-tier performance for generations.

Natural and synthetic slate aim for a premium, stone-like appearance, whereas asphalt focuses on affordability. Real slate runs $10 to $30 per square foot installed and lasts up to 200 years; synthetic slate costs $10 to $15 and tops out at 50 to 100 years. 

Standard asphalt averages $3 to $8 per square foot and needs replacement every 20 to 30 years. If you want the slate look without the full price tag—or extra roof weight—synthetic is a solid middle ground.

With routine inspections and prompt repairs, a natural slate roof can last well beyond 100 years; some hard-slate installations reach the 200-year mark. Soft slate falls in the 50- to 125-year range, and synthetic products last 50 to 100 years. 

Remember, flashing, fasteners, and the underlying structure may need attention sooner than the stone itself. Severe hail or fallen limbs can also shorten life span, so schedule periodic checkups with a slate-qualified roofer.

If you plan to stay in your home long term—or want a standout selling point—slate delivers strong value. Although installation costs are high, owners often recoup 60% to 70% at resale and enjoy lower replacement cycles than asphalt. The stone’s durability, energy efficiency, and timeless curb appeal also appeal to eco-conscious buyers because fewer roofs end up in landfills. Just be sure your framing can handle the weight and that you budget for occasional specialty repairs.

Skip the DIY climb if you have a slate roof. Slate may be tough against the weather, but a single misplaced step can crack a tile and create a leak path. The surface also turns slick when wet, upping the risk of injury. Professional crews use staging and hook ladders that spread weight across multiple slates, protecting both the roof and the worker. To inspect or repair slate, call a roofer who specializes in the material.
