Readyslate graces and protects a one-of-a-kind lakeside retreat in Quebec

Perched by the tranquil shores of a lake in Quebec, Canada, this cozy residence stands as a testament to the perfect marriage of nature and architecture. The homeowners, integral to the design process, prioritized enduring beauty and long-term resilience.

They chose Readyslate, our innovative real slate roofing system, for their 2,600 square foot roof. This decision not only adds to the unique stature of their one-of-a-kind home but ensures that the structure will endure for years to come.

Rydell Roofing, a franchise with 17 locations in Canada, was entrusted with the installation of this project. Despite it being their first experience with Readyslate, they quickly fell in love with the product.

When asked about what sets Readyslate apart, Austin from Rydell Roofing remarked:

Readyslate’s differentiation from other products is the character it adds to the home. You cannot get that anywhere else. It is so obvious that it’s natural.

Our team was consistently present throughout the entire installation process, ensuring a seamless experience. Morgan Cathey, Readyslate US Product Manager, provided support by offering information and technical assistance, from initial inquiries to the final touches.

Austin explained how insightful and cooperative the whole process was:

Morgan was very helpful dealing with concerns. He came all the way to Canada and stayed for two days. During the installation, all doubts were handled.

Crafted from six pieces of real slate, Readyslate not only showcases exceptional resistance to rust and fading but also harnesses the inherent qualities of slate. As the product weathers the passage of time, it gracefully evolves, acquiring a distinctive character that adds to its unique charm.

Readyslate has been specifically designed for a straightforward installation process, ensuring that roofing professionals can work efficiently and with ease, even if it’s their first time with the product—this project serves as a perfect example.

Nestled against the picturesque backdrop of the lake, this residence acts as a retreat to enjoy the tranquility of nature and immerse yourself in the breathtaking views of the serene waters.
