FireRock Building Materials > PRODUCT > FireRock Slate Roofing
More than any other material, the roof protects the inside of a home from the elements. In addition to protection, the roof also defines the style of a home. A slate roof is the perfect combination of durability and classic style, and that™s why we offer the best slate roofing materials for the FireRock collection.

The Strength of Slate and Attributes
  • Longevity ™ A slate roof can easily last a century and usually much longer
  • Slate is unaffected by weather extremes
  • Tolerates temperature fluctuations and severe weather events
  • Some slate is Miami-Dade accepted for hurricane zones
  • Slate is very dense and does not absorb water
  • 100% fire proof: exceeds all standards for fire resistance
  • Since slate is stone, it simply doesn™t burn
  • Hail is a major cause of roof damage each year - Slate offers excellent hail resistance
  • In fact, S-1 slate has been tested to withstand class 4 ice balls in simulated severe storm conditions
  • Slate is impervious to mold, mildew and insects
  • Lightweight genuine slate roof systems can weigh less than 6 lbs per sq/ft ™ making them well suited to replace most cedar shake roofs
