"Hiring Felipe (Flash Roofing) for my stone coated steel roof was an absolute pleasure. Having a long of history of hiring contractors over the years (electrical/landscaping/insulation/plumbing/remodeling/handyman, etc), I have learned to become very cautious. After completing extensive research of Decra stone coated steel roofs (including instillation) Felipe thoroughly answered my list of questions in fullest detail leaving no question of his (and Victor's) enthusiasm for what they do, how they do it, and why. HE BREAKS IT DOWN TO THE SCIENCE!!! Not once did I detect resistance/hesitation from my questions, including when going up on the roof multiple times during their install. After receiving 3 local Denver estimates, Felipe was 5K less in cost and the best part; He included wider gutters to accommodate the new slope of the roof, 4 additional soffit vents, eliminated all attic vents with a ridge vent, replaced all existing vent caps with brand new ones (painted to match the roof color), and "Ice and Water Shield" the entire roof! In addition, he coordinated and met with the with the Solar Panel company at my home to proactively review/discuss their boot racking systems and proper ways to walk on the roof during solar panel install. With the money I saved compared to other local bids, I was more than happy to buy pizza for his crew! A big Thank You to Filipe and his entire detailed crew!!!!"

"I am very pleased with the roof installed on a property I recently sold. Ben, the account manager involved was very professional, and the crew involved was excellent. The job was completed faster than anticipated, and the current homeowner called me to state how pleased she was with the new Owens Corning roof, and the terrific service provided by RoofCorp. Clean up was pristine and prompt."

"Rex Roofing did a great job replacing my old T-Lock shingles with modern architectural ones. The work was done at a fair price and in a timely manner. Most importantly, the company owner, Joe Reinhard, was instrumental in helping me navigate a time-consuming and difficult insurance claim and appraisal process. I canâ t think of a better or more knowledgable advocate to have when dealing with an insurer thatâ s less than willing to honor their coverage obligations. I canâ t recommend these folks highly enough!"

"I had a great experience with Level Up Roofing LLC and would highly recommend them to anyone needing roofing services or a full roof replacement. From the very beginning, they were professional, responsive, and easy to communicate with. They took the time to explain the condition of the roof, what needed to be replaced, and why. I never felt pressured, and everything was laid out clearly before the roofing work started. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and showed real attention to detail throughout the roof replacement process. What stood out to me most was how respectful they were of the property. They kept the work area clean and made sure everything was picked up once the job was done. The finished roof looks amazing and feels solid and well-built. If you’re looking for a dependable roofing company that delivers quality work and great service, Level Up Roofing LLC is a company you can trust for roofing and roof replacement needs."

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Lakewood, CO

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.
