How Long Will a Slate Roof Last?

Greetings From Vermont - Source of fine slate and slate roofing

The New England Slate Company specializes in providing quality slate roofing for repair work, slate roof restorations and new slate construction. We maintain an extensive inventory of most common sizes and colors of new slate. We will match an existing slate roof when requested and offer a custom slate-cutting service for special shapes and patterns. Our slate roofs are protecting buildings across North America and around the world and as always, your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed.

One of the most interesting and impressive slate stories of the past decade is that of North Country Black. After decades of sporadic activity, the Glendyne Quarry, sole producer of North Country Black, has grown into the largest single-source slate producer in North America. The list of projects which use this premium ASTM S-1 Black is world-class in both scope and historical significance. Prominent Architects and Historical Preservationists throughout the world are recommending this slate for its color, consistency and longevity. Read about the North Country Black installations on Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Savannah, Georgia and Memorial Hall Tower at Harvard University.
