1. 100 Year Warranty: How many items in your life have a 100 year warranty? Some slate comes with a 100 year warranty for the stone and may actually last more than 150 years.
2. Fireproof:Having a slate roof means you don't have to worry about your roofing material catching on fire. Go out in your yard and try to set a rock on fire--same thing. And, a slate roof may save you money on your homeowner's insurance.
3. Uniqueness: How many homes in your neighborhood or town have a slate roof? Probably not too many unless you live near historic older houses or upscale newer homes. Install a slate roof, and your home may become an instant landmark. People may even use it when giving directions, as in, "go past the house with the slate roof." Immediate prestige!

All joking aside, a slate roof may be the ultimate in roofing products and should be at the top of your list as a roofing option. A slate roof is beautiful, durable, and may increase the value of your home.
