roofing advice by Pauline on August 11, 2022 @22:51

I've been looking for a special piece of roofing advise. Finally, I selected slate roofing for my new house and made the decision to use it. I need to learn more about the slate roof installation for my research on that. I am aware of the information that was obtained online. I do, however, need to be aware of the additional information that I might overlook during the process. If you have experience with slate roofing, please provide your honest opinion.

Very expensive install for both materials and labor. Requires extra support on roof framing to accommodate weight. May require engineer to evaluate walls and foundation to accommodate weight. Average roofer today has very little or no real experience installing slate.. While they last an incredibly long time,......and look beautiful,....I wouldn't put one in.
