[quote=Anonymous]Builder here. The general consensus is that there really is a significant price difference between slate and synthetic. The labor is the same - its the same process - although granted the synthetic is not as heavy. So, folks use synthetic if their roof framing cannot support the weight of real slate. In your case that is not the case so I'd suggest you look hard at using real slate. Can you get any re-use from your existing tiles to help offset the cost ?[/quote]
