[quote=Anonymous]Slate roofs will last 80 to 100 years, but if your house was built 80 to 100 years ago, it might be time to replace! We replaced the slate roof on our 1935 colonial a couple of years ago (after repairing it a few times, but the roof was in bad shape and we regularly had leaks). We went with Cetainteed Landmark Shingles (in the colonial slate color), which have a lifespan of around 30 years. I believe the cost for our roof was around $11,000, but that also involved replacing a skylight and our roof presented some other challenges. I think if you opt to put in a new slate roof, the cost will probably be double. [/quote]
