"I needed a small section of tiles on my roof replaced but all of the companies I spoke to said that they are old and don?t manufacture them anymore, so they would only offer new tile installment. California Building Professionals went the extra step and called boneyards until they found a match and installed it for me. They saved me a lot of money and time with the extra effort that they put in. Really appreciate all the help"

"Bill came over to my Mom's house and did a complete inspection of the roof. My Mom was concerned that she might need a new roof before the rains come.  Bill was so nice and honest with his discussion with my Mom and me.  He said that she had at least another 10 to 15 years of life left on her roof.  I asked if I could pay him for his time and he said no thanks.  
I have so much respect and appreciation for Bill and Jordan roofing, that when either I or my family needs a roof, I will use them !!
And I will recommend them to my friends !!

"I absolutely love my traditional tile roof! It adds such a classic charm to my home, and I feel confident knowing it will last for decades with minimal upkeep. The insulation is fantastic, it keeps my house cooler in the summer and nice and warm in the winter, which has even helped lower my energy bills. The installation team did a wonderful job, and I appreciate the quality craftsmanship. It was a bit of an investment upfront, but knowing I wont have to worry about replacing it in my lifetime makes it well worth it. If you want something beautiful, durable, and long lasting, I highly recommend going with tile roofing!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with a fantastic roofing company, and I could not be more impressed with their service from start to finish. From the initial consultation to the final inspection, the entire process was seamless and professional. The team was punctual, courteous, and clearly knowledgeable about their craft. They took the time to thoroughly explain the options available to me and helped me select the best materials for my home, all within my budget. The work was completed on time, and the crew worked efficiently without cutting any corners. My new roof looks great, and I feel confident knowing that it was installed by such a skilled team. I also appreciated the attention to detail and the cleanup after the job. They left my property looking spotless, and I never had to worry about debris or nails being left behind. Communication was excellent throughout the entire project, with regular updates and quick responses to any questions I had. I highly recommend this"

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Tarzana, CA

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.
