Exquisite home--Could you please provide information about the shingles?

13 years ago

I love the variation in the color of the shingles. Could please provide manufacturer/brand and style or any other information that would help me track them down? Thanks very much for your time.

Unfortunately I do not have the exact name of the product. The product is a flat clay tile roof. A local roofing company or a material supply house can assist you in achieving the same look with a similar product. Best, Markay Johnson Construction.

K B - Decades of experience in high end roofing business would say that is most likely a slate roof, probably at least 1/2-3/4" thickness, variegated colors of weathering/semi weathering grays, with some very high iron content slates, exact color reference name/blend typically varies by quarry

Thank you for your enquiry. I do not have the exact name of the product used. Please visit your local roofing supply store to find the best material match. The roof is a slate roof and is a blend. Best, Markay Johnson Construction
