Reviews
"Great site! The most comprehensive site on natural slate roofing I've found. A must visit for anyone that wants to learn about this material. Bought a copy of "Slate Roofs, Design & Installation Manual". Highly recommended for design considerations/details and also for installation practices. Practical for every company that is involved in a roofing slate project. Most gorgeous roofing product on the market, so many color/thickness/layout options. Can be as simple or artistic as you want! And, it's the longest lasting roof you can buy! 5 STARS!!!"
"The NSA is a phenomenal association with some of the best members in the industry you will want to know! The website is massively helpful and even has a mobile field guide to help answer your questions on the fly. Tom Stortz has done an excellent job leading the association and continues to make strides to bring the slate industry into the spot light!"
"Slate roofing is revered by homeowners and installers, it is a beautiful long lasting product that adds class and prestige to every structure it protects. The National Slate Association is about promoting the use and proper installation of slate roofing. Leave a legacy behind, install a slate roof that your grandchildren's children can admire long after you are gone, do it with pride, do it right. Don't Fake It, Slate It."
"A dynamic and historic organization that has served the natural roofing slate industry since 1922! It is great being a member and board of director to such a devoted association in promoting the use of one of the most historic and prominent roofing materials in the world."
"The NSA has been a great resource for our roofing company. The NSA manual provides a wealth of information regarding the quarrying and installation of natural slate. We’ve found the detail drawings to be useful on both historical and modern buildings. We would highly recommend joining the NSA if you're an architect, material supplier or contractor working on slate roofs."
