Synthetic slate manufacturers claim:<\/strong> \u201cLighter than natural stone: this makes it possible to install the material on roofs that would not be able to support the heavy weight of the real stone. [Synthetics] do not require any additional structural support.\u201d\u00a0 link here<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
SlateTec responds:\u00a0<\/strong> Lighter than traditionally installed natural stone, SlateTec weighs less than six pounds per square foot: this makes it possible to install genuine slate on roofs that would not be able to support the heavy weight of the traditionally installed stone. SlateTec does not require any additional structural support.<\/div>\n

Here are a few points to consider regarding weight savings and natural slate roofs:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

-Our\u00a0Lightweight Slate Roof\u00a0System uses only the highest quality slate available, Vermont S1 Grade Stone.<\/strong> Check out the Greenstone Slate quarry here: www.greenstoneslate.com<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

-A SlateTec\u00a0Genuine Slate Roof weighs\u00a0less than six pounds\u00a0per\u00a0square foot<\/strong>! So no additional structural engineering is required.<\/em><\/p>\n

-Our Slate Roofs are equal in form and function to that of a\u00a0traditional slate<\/strong> roof\u00a0installation. We cut roof weight, we don\u2019t cut corners.<\/em><\/p>\n

-The SlateTec Patented Interlayment is weaved into every course of slate creating\u00a0<\/em>a powerful leak\u00a0barrier<\/em>. This provides protection from leaks even if a piece of slate is missing<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

-We offer all of the classic slate\u00a0colors\u00a0and\u00a0color blends<\/strong> available on traditional installations. We also provide hand-picked custom color blends to match any style of home. See our color page here: Colors<\/em><\/p>\n
