Slate Roof Costs & PricesSlate roof costs are the highest in the industry, ranging in price from $15 to $35 plus per square foot fully installed. Slate roofs are usually reserved for historic or very high end homes due to the considerable cost that goes into reroofing with slate tiles. While slate roofing is very pricey, it also offers amazing longevity that can actually make it one of the best long term values - if you can get past the initial price tag.
Cost Of The Slate TilesThere are several options, sizes and thicknesses for slate tiles that all price out differently. In general, the longer and/or thicker the tiles, the more expensive the cost (and usually the longer the expected and warranted life span of the tile). Here are some general material price ranges for slate roof tiles.
Cost For The InstallationThe cost for the installation of slate tiles will range anywhere from $5 to $10 per square foot. There are several important reasons why the install price is higher for slate than other materials, including metal roofs. Principal among these is that slate roofing projects require considerable skill and knowledge - a requirement that consumers have to pay for.
Lower End Slate RoofsLower end slate roofing projects using a thinner, smaller tile and not requiring a very complex installation will range in price from $15 to $22 per square foot fully installed. See out slate roof calculator for additinal pricing information.
Mid Range Slate RoofsMid range slate roofing projects using a medium size and thickness slate tile and requiring some customization on the install will range in price from $22 to $28 per square foot fully installed.
