Aesthetically Pleasing and Durable Wood and Slate Roofing
Since wooden and slate roofs last longer than roofs made from less durable materials, you have to replace them less often. This means you get a beautiful roof while saving money!
It is significantly easier and less time-consuming to replace individual slate and wooden roof shingles than other materials. So, your maintenance schedule will be less frequent!
