Why Choose Synthetic Slate Roofing?

Synthetic slate roofing combines cutting-edge technology with classic aesthetics and offers a durable, lightweight, and cost-effective alternative to traditional slate. Unlike natural slate, which is heavy and brittle, synthetic slate shingles are crafted from high-quality materials such as polymers, recycled rubber, plastics, and steel. These components enhance durability and maintain an authentic slate-like appearance.

Key Benefits of Synthetic Slate Roofing:

Unlike natural slate, synthetic slate is much lighter, making installation easier and eliminating the need for additional structural reinforcement.
Get the luxurious look of slate at a fraction of the price. Synthetic slate provides a high-end appearance without the hefty expense.
With a lifespan of 50+ years, synthetic slate roofing is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including hail, strong winds, and heavy rain.
Many synthetic slate tiles are made from recycled materials and can be recycled again at the end of their lifespan, reducing environmental impact.
Most synthetic slate shingles meet Class A fire ratings and Class 4 impact resistance standards, ensuring optimal safety for your home.

How Synthetic Slate Roofing is Installed

The installation of synthetic slate roofing is more straightforward than natural slate, thanks to its lightweight composition. Traditional slate requires special tools and reinforced support due to its weight and fragility. Synthetic slate, on the other hand, can be installed similarly to asphalt shingles, making the process quicker and more cost-efficient. Our roofers also ensure precise installation to maximize the lifespan and performance of your roof.

Frequently
Asked Questions

If you spot water stains, drips, or damp spots on your ceiling, act quickly. Contact AC Matthews for a free roof inspection. Delaying repairs can lead to more severe and costly damage. We’ll identify the source of the leak and recommend the most effective repair or replacement option.

Gutter guards are protective covers that prevent leaves, debris, and pests from clogging your gutters. They help keep water flowing away from your home, reducing the risk of water damage and foundation issues. If your gutters frequently clog or you want to minimize seasonal maintenance, gutter guards are a smart investment. AC Matthews offers professional gutter guard installation tailored to your home.
