Slate Roof Installation and Repair

Slate Roofing

Slate is one of the oldest and most enduring roofing materials in the world. Beautiful, natural, with proper slate roof installation, it outlasts nearly everything else. Available in a range of colors, sizes, and origins, no two slate roofs are exactly alike. Tile Roofs of Texas installs and restores Brazilian slate and other premium slate systems across Houston and Southeast Texas.

A proper slate roof installation is a generational investment. With the right underlayment and copper flashing, it can protect a fine home for well over a century with minimal maintenance. The slate is what people see, but flashing and underlayment are what make it last, directing water away from the areas most vulnerable to intrusion. On a slate roof, those components should be copper and the highest grade materials available. Installed correctly, they separate a roof that performs for generations from one that causes problems within years, and Tile Roofs of Texas holds both to the same high standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a slate roof installation cost compared to tile or metal?

We’re glad to walk through real numbers for your home or plans. Compare clay tile and standing seam metal.

How long does a natural slate roof last?
