A complete roof replacement by Allstate Roofing includes 6 core components.
Natural slate is quarried stone, unique in character and extraordinary in performance. It is completely fireproof, immune to rot and insect damage, and capable of lasting 75 to 200 years depending on the grade. Vermont, Pennsylvania, and New York quarries produce some of the finest slate available, and its use in New England has a centuries-long history. Working with natural slate requires specialized knowledge, skill, and tools, and Allstate Roofing brings all three.
Synthetic slate products are engineered to replicate the appearance of natural slate using recycled rubber, plastic, or composite materials. They are lighter than natural slate, easier to install, and available at a lower cost. Quality synthetic slate products carry warranties of 40 to 50 years and are an excellent option for homeowners who want the slate aesthetic without the full investment or structural demands of natural stone.
Not all natural slate is created equal. Soft, ribbon, and hard slate varieties have significantly different lifespans. We help our clients understand their options and select a grade appropriate for their project's goals and budget.
Many historic homes in the Bangor area and across Maine carry original slate roofs that were installed generations ago and still have decades of serviceable life remaining. Repairing rather than replacing these roofs is almost always the more economical and historically appropriate choice. Our team specializes in matching replacement slates to existing roofs, repairing or replacing deteriorated flashings, and addressing any structural issues in the underlying deck, all while preserving the integrity and appearance of your original slate.
Slate roofing is not a material for inexperienced hands. Improper nailing, incorrect lap distances, or inadequate underlayment systems can cause premature failures on what should be a century-lasting roof. Our team follows time-tested installation methods and adheres to the standards established by the National Slate Association to ensure that every slate roof we install or repair performs as intended.
Whether you're installing a new slate roof on a historic property, repairing damage to an existing slate roof, or exploring your options for a premium roofing system, Allstate Roofing is ready to help. We serve Bangor and communities throughout central and eastern Maine. Contact us today for a free consultation and estimate.
