F-Wave Designer Slate in American Blends Charcoal with two new Velux skylights

Project Overview
The slate look without the slate problems
The Challenge
Hail damage gave this Little Canada, MN homeowner the chance to upgrade to a premium roof. They wanted the look of natural slate without the weight, granule loss, or maintenance.
What We Did
- Installed F-Wave Designer Slate shingles in American Blends Charcoal
- Fabricated custom black metal rake edge for a clean finish
- Installed two new Velux skylights
- Built a custom EPDM rubber saddle to protect a problem area
The Result
A high-end slate look with serious impact resistance, brighter rooms from the new skylights, and custom metalwork tying it all together. See more of our work in Little Canada, MN and across the northwest metro.
