Be Original with Slate Roofing

When building new homes, Austin residents must decide what type of roofing they wish to have. There are a lot of options out there, some more common than others. One option that you don’t see a lot is slate roofing, and that’s really a shame since slate roofing is so very long-lasting. There is really no limit to how long slate roofing can last if you take proper care of it, but it is known for outlasting more modern roofing types. The only downside is that slate roofing can be a little on the pricey side, which is why it has waned in popularity over the years.

If you don’t mind shelling out the extra money, however, you can be rewarded with a strong, regal looking roof that will set your home apart from all the other houses on the block. Of course, finding a builder that offers this somewhat rare roofing type can prove difficult, but if you can, then go for it!
