"Ty Crawford came out and met with my wife and I on two separate occasions. He was very pleasant, informative and thorough in his presentation and providing an estimate. He was the first source we spoke with. After meeting with several other competent and reputable service providers over the next couple weeks, we called him back, spoke further and decided to choose Shingle King to replace our roof. Ty had kept in contact twice during the couple of weeks while we looked at other potential providers. No pressure tactics, just a quick friendly phone call to see if we had made a decision yet.
His was not the lowest of the four estimates we received, but we had a comfort level speaking with him, discussing work ethic, and reviewing the project that we needed done and the quality of materials he would be using. (Each of the other providers we received estimates from also presented themselves and their services very well). There was simply a comfortable feeling, especially after signing the contract that we had made the right choice. It was a good fit for us.
We had a couple weeks wait until other projects were completed and weather had cleared before our work commenced. The roofing crew did an excellent job removing the old roof and installing the new. We had chosen to alter the color of shingles and also decided to have a Groove Vent cut into the roof and eliminating the unsightly ventilation boxes, which Ty had mentioned were too few for proper air flow. Work was promptly performed over two days. Crew members were courteous and did a fine job of cleaning up after the work was completed.
Once finished the roof looked great! The shingle color selection was spot on matching the new color theme we had chosen. We are very pleased with the work that was performed and Ty's follow-up make sure we were satisfied both with the service and quality of craftsmanship as well as the appearance of the roof.
A very good experience for us!"

"Initiall call returned in one day  and service was completed as promised.  crew of carpenters was excellent and fun to have working... certainly saved us  from a lot of labor that we were not quite willing to do ourselves.

UPDATE-6/6/15:

We used this company in the past for a roofing job that has since gone wrong, without appropriate follow-up or resolution from Bazell Maintenance & Remodeling. The door portion of the job in this review was originally very good, but as of now, you can hardly get the door open without yanking the knob off. I have yet to receive any resolution on this issue, either."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Wayne, OH

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.
