Built to last for generations.
Properly selected and installed natural slate
roofing can provide a service life measured in many
decades and, in suitable conditions, more than a
century.
Why natural slate roofing?
Roofing slate is quarried from dense, sound stone chosen for toughness, durability, and weather resistance. Unlike many manufactured roofing products that may require repeated replacement, a properly designed slate roof can deliver outstanding long-term value.
Natural beauty
Variations in color, texture, thickness, and size create roofs with depth and character that manufactured materials cannot duplicate.
Architectural versatility
Slate can be supplied for uniform applications, random-width layouts, rough-textured roofs, graduated designs, and custom blends.
Proven performance
Evergreen roofing slate is evaluated according to applicable ASTM testing standards and selected for demanding roofing applications.
Colors, sizes, textures, and blends
Natural slate roofing offers a broad range of architectural effects. Evergreen Slate can assist with projects ranging from traditional single-size, quarter-inch applications to intermingled rough-texture roofs in random widths, graduated lengths, and graduated thicknesses.
We source slate from approximately two dozen quarries and offer a wide selection of natural colors. Availability can vary by quarry, size, thickness, texture, and project quantity, so early planning is recommended for larger or highly customized projects.
