Raising the Roof: Slate Tile Roofing

In our occasional series "Raising the Roof," we take a brief look at roofing styles. Today: Slate.

Slate tile provides homes with an organic, reflective beauty. This durable material comes in a variety of colors, thicknesses and textures. We use quality slate products from manufacturers including Ludowici. You can’t get any more natural than slate. It’s quarried, not manufactured, and its composition causes it to readily split into thin slabs. Slate is the result of pressure and heat that transformed existing rock. It naturally occurs in varying colors due to variances in its chemical composition. Colors include black, grey, green, red and even purple.
