"Our neighborhood was hit by a devastating hailstorm in 2022. The vinyl siding on the north sides of everyone's house was pocked with holes and gashes, roofs catastrophically damaged, broken windows, battered cars, tree limbs everywhere. Certainly, we had all seen storm damage much worse than what found after our storm, but we all braced for the challenges ahead: clean up, repair and even rebuild. As we picked up the pieces around our yards, contracting companies descended on our neighborhood. Dealing with the insurance end of the equation was already becoming a marathon--but the looming questions, who should we choose to repair our home, who will do the job well became a worrisome preoccupation for us and all of our neighbors. Our former neighbor, Ben F, drove by one day, and seeing me in the yard cleaning up, he stopped by to check in with us. Ben listened empathetically. He told us he had started to work for Craftsmen and asked us if we wanted him to give us an estimate. Ben told that us he had been impressed with the team at Craftsmen, that he had found a workplace guided by principles of integrity. As he put together the estimate, Ben was thorough and thoughtful, answering our endless questions with considerable knowledge and good advice. We trusted Ben as a friend, and after looking at other companies, we decided to go with Craftsmen--not only on Ben's recommendation, but on other positive feedback we received from people who had worked with them through the years. Over the course of a year of work, there were some issues that arose, perhaps not surprisingly, but each time and overall, Craftsmen listened to our concerns and acted fully to resolve them. But what made the difference was the consistent assurances we got from Phillip P, one of the company's owners, that Craftsmen would correct any issue to our satisfaction--a promise that our patient contractor, John B, followed up on, as we likely drove him crazy with anxiety filled texts. Steven S at the office ensured that we were scheduled for our repairs and any follow ups that came after. Ben’s hard work, Phillip's word, John's follow-through and the teamwork at Craftsmen all mattered! This experience has taught us that in the process of home repair and restoration (and I imagine in renovation too), you cannot let the idea of the perfect get in the way of the good. And Craftsmen delivers the goods! We have finally, and thankfully, come to the end of repairing our home! We 100% recommend Craftsmen if you are looking for a solid, local company that operates on principles of integrity and that goes the extra mile to ‘make it right.’ Craftsmen, like other companies following the hail event, met a different sort of storm—a storm of people needing repairs. The unusual circumstance meant that Craftsmen had to learn how to navigate a disaster event along the way. But as they learned best practices in the aftermath of our storm, they stood by their work. Now, as we stroll through our neighborhood, we often note how lucky we were to have made the best choice! Thank you, Phillip, Ben, John, the men and women on the construction and window crew, and everyone at the office for your dedication and hard work!"

“Having successfully completed over 8,500 roofing projects since their inception in January of 2015, Lexington Blue Inc. and its Founder, Rev. Dr. Brad Pagel, have successfully cornered the market for Professional Roofing Installation and Insurance Restoration Services in both Kentucky and Southern Ohio, making them the #1 Rated Company in the region. With a 97% approval rating across all collective internet rating platforms, they are poised to open six more locations in 2025!”
"AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COST. This is the worst company in the entire state and if you allow them onto your property or entertain the possibility of using them to repair your roof IT WILL BE THE BIGEST MISTAKE YOU WILL EVER MAKE. The con starts right from the start with the door hangers and company info they use to promote their company. They DO NOT have an A+ rating with the BBB - in fact read all the complaints that have been filed with the BBB about this company. They are a NOT a member of the National Roofing Contractors Association - this was confirmed by the NRCA who advised they were issuing a warning to Lexington Blue to remove this claim from their advertising. Pay no attention to the reviews that are on their website. They are padded with a lot of ratings done by the staff and owner. We found out about that info from two of their staff after they left the company. To get real understanding about the type of operation Lexington Blue runs, read the BBB complaints, read the YELP reviews, read the Google reviews - Read the Reddit’s that about this company - their bad service, their false advertising - their out of control sign campaigns - it will make you sick to see what this company is doing and make you question how they have been allowed to remain in business and continue to mislead customers, take their money and not do the work or if they do the work it will be sub par and will just lead to further repairs and damages to your home. I was one of those homeowners who answered the door in August of 2024 and fell for their false credentials and matching polo shirts and the reviews on THEIR website. They inspected my roof, called my insurance company, filed a claim and callled or texted Everyday to see if my insurance company had sent the check for the claim yet. As soon as the check came they showed up at our door. Requested the full amount of the claim and advised that they would file for the supplementals and they would perform the room repairs in the next 4 to 6 weeks. I could go on and on and give you a detailed overview of the nightmare that would follow but let me give you the quick overview of what has occurred and what we are still dealing with almost 7 months later. Hundreds of unanswered telephone calls and text message, more lies and broken promise that you can even imagine, discovering the hundreds of dissatisfied customers that they have and are currently scamming. Finding out that after the 4 to 6 weeks had passed that their was a queue of over 300 customers ahead of us and they would call when we were next in line. After the false advertising and missing their deadline I asked for my deposit back and advised them I would go elsewhere and being informed that it take 6 to 10 weeks and they charge 15% for cancelling a job. If you do get a refund even a partial one it can bounce when you put it in your bank (read the story of what that customer went through and their reviewof this company). Getting letters from this company saying that we had been approved for the supplemental claims and gave directions to call them when that check arrived so that they could get that money as well so that the repairs would happen on time. This was 12 weeks into this ordeal and after calling our insurance company we were advised that it was all a lie and they had filed for nothing. They ignore Letters of Demand even after getting it via certified mail. I am 66 years old and have a home that my mother and I own. She is 86 years old and has advanced Parkinson’s. We are having to hire an attorney and sue this company to get our money returned to us so I can have the repairs done to our roof that is going to require even more repairs than it did when this all started. Please avoid getting conned by this group. Read about the owner, stay clear of the employee Danny Liponi - he will lie and con you out of every cent he can and then just stop taking your calls. This should not be possible for this company to be allowed to remain open"

A slate roof is made of thin, even slices of natural slate stone laid over the roof frame and base layer. Slate is a hard, durable rock formed over millions of years from clay and volcanic ash under extreme pressure deep within the earth. Slate roofs are extremely heavy, even when the shingles are thin, so your roof will likely need reinforcement before your contractor can install the slate. These roofs offer a luxurious, high-end look and can last for decades, but they're costly to install and require regular maintenance.
Slate roofs offer several advantages over other roofing materials. Slate is easy to maintain, reliably lasts for decades, and is extremely durable. It offers a high-end natural look that's energy-efficient and provides a good return on investment. However, a slate roof is considerably more expensive than many other options. It's extremely heavy, may require structural reinforcement, and is complicated to install. Although it is strong, the tiles can crack with impact damage.
Real slate comes from natural stone. Synthetic slate comes from various sources made to look like slate. For either hard or soft natural stone, expect to pay $10 to $30 per square foot, each of which will last 50 to 200 years. If you choose synthetic slate, budget $10 to $15 per square foot. These options will last 20 to 50 years.
Slate roofs last for decades when properly maintained, with natural slate enduring from 50 to 200 years. Hard slate lasts 100 to 200 years, soft slate lasts 50 to 125 years, and synthetic slate lasts 50 to 100 years. The support structure and fixings often require replacement before the slate tiles themselves. Extreme weather, such as tornadoes and hail, reduces the overall lifespan of the roof.
Slate roofs are a valuable investment that boost property appeal and resale value. You receive an ROI of 60% to 70% when installing a slate roof. This roofing material is environmentally responsible because it is natural and lasts up to 200 years, keeping replacement waste to a minimum. In contrast, asphalt roofs expire after 20 to 30 years, which leads to increased waste in landfills.
Walking on your slate roof is not safe and you should avoid it. Don't tread on a slate roof because doing so risks damaging the tiles and risking your safety. Slate roofs are delicate despite their durability, and the weight of a person can crack the slate or cause unexpected slips due to a slick surface when wet. Professional roofing crews utilize specialized equipment to access and work on the roof without putting pressure on individual tiles.
