Our new house was designed after a 100 year old train station, which would originally had a real slate roof. After extensive researching for real slate, not only did we not think if was practical from the money stand point at $65,000, materials only, it would also not be practical because of water and breakage.

We only made one mistake in this whole process and that was going with a cheaper product XXXXXXX. By starting our garage first we knew we were in trouble after only 3 feet had been installed. Calling the distributor for XXXXXXX, gave us no help at all, The 'XXXXXXX' slate shingle would curl up on the ends. To this day 4 months later it still looks awful! Their warranty which was suppose to be for 50 years wasn't even good for 50 days. No one came out to look at the roof or help us in any way. They just told us over the phone we installed it wrong. It took me 84 days to receive a cheque for materials that were never even sent to our job. To this date we are still out almost $11,000 in a product that we will have to remove from our garage and put into the trash.

The same person that installed the XXXXXXX slate on our garage also installed the Authentic Roof on our house. Authentic Roof looks so much like real slate that we are amazed. We hope to follow this letter with some pictures of both the XXXXXXX slate and your Authentic Roof slate. The brick is not yet finished, but when it is, I will send more pictures.
If you have anyone that would like to share my pictures with, or my story, please feel free to do so, call me anytime.

Thanks again.
