Roofs don’t often come to mind when homeowners think of trendy remodels. The aesthetic of roofs are all curb appeal because no one is going to stand inside your living room, warming themselves by the fireplace, and compliment you on how nice your roof looks. There are other beautiful features of your home’s interior that will have their attention once they are indoors. But don’t overlook this area of your curb appeal. It might have more value that you might imagine.
Slate tile roofing is the hottest thing in roofing today, as it has been for quite some time. Slate is one of those odd trends that isn’t really a trend but more an idea that has finally been realized, like hickory flooring. The pet rock feels like a trend. So do Lava Lamps. Slate roofs do not. However, there is no reason to debate the semantics. What’s great about this new deserved attention is that slate roofs can last fifty years or more. It is a comforting thing to install and never have to replace your roof again.
