SlateTec installation – Genuine Slate, Less Weight!
Beauty and longevity of a slate roof, but not the extra weight!
The SlateTec slate roof system is an innovative lightweight approach to installing a genuine slate roof. Using their very rugged interlayment, a SlateTec roof uses far less slate overlap than in a traditional installation.
Cedar shake replacements and asphalt re-roofing solution
The SlateTec system will reduce roof weight roughly 40% because it requires less slate—the key to its cost effectiveness. The reduction of roof weight (less than six pounds per square foot) also lowers structural costs, contributing further to the system’s high value. You can upgrade to slate without the concern normally associated with a slate roof’s structural support requirements.
The SlateTec system features Greenstone Slate® S1 rated slate in any Vermont color and slate grade.
Important SlateTec benefits:
- Reduces weight to under six pounds per square foot
- S1-rated Greenstone Slate®
- Overall roof cost reduction. Very similar to traditional installation techniques but with less slate overlap.
- All the traditional slate roof options are available including: random widths, color blends, drop downs, and staggers.
- Patented, rugged interlayment.
