Roof Positive is Northeast Pennsylvania's premier installer of luxury roofing systems — specializing in authentic quarried Vermont natural slate, innovative READYSLATE® pre-assembled natural slate panels by Cupa Pizarras / Vermont Slate Co., and world-renowned Ludowici architectural terra cotta clay roof tiles. Luxury roofing represents the pinnacle of architectural beauty, permanence, and historical craftsmanship. For estate homes, historic properties, lakefront residences, and upscale properties in Clarks Summit, the Abingtons, Waverly, Mountain Top, the Back Mountain, and the Poconos, these materials offer centuries of proven durability, natural fire resistance, and unmatched elegance. Headquartered in Clarks Summit, our experienced crews have the specialized knowledge required to install and maintain these historic and heirloom systems.
Luxury roofing demands mastery of traditional building science and modern waterproofing. For natural slate, we install hand-split S-1 grade authentic Vermont roofing slate in unfading greens, purples, mottled tiles, and semi-weathering grays, fastened with solid copper roofing nails over heavy waterproof underlayment and copper valley flashings. For homeowners seeking the timeless look and longevity of real natural slate without the structural weight of traditional thick slate, we install READYSLATE® — the patented modular real-slate roofing system featuring 4 pieces of hand-quarried natural Spanish slate pre-assembled over a waterproof bituminous HDPE membrane backing, delivering a Class 4 impact rating at a fraction of the install time. For terra cotta, we install authentic Ludowici clay roof tiles — including Spanish barrel, Scandia, French interlocking, and classic shingle tiles backed by Ludowici's legendary 75-year material warranty. All luxury installs include custom copper flashing, snow guards, and our non-prorated lifetime craftsmanship warranty.
Northeast Pennsylvania is rich with historic architecture and prestigious residential communities where authentic materials are essential to preserving property value and aesthetic pedigree. Many historic homes in Scranton's Green Ridge and Hill Section, the Abingtons, Waverly, and Wilkes-Barre were built with original slate or clay tile roofs that have lasted 80 to 100+ years. Natural slate and terra cotta never rot, burn, curl, or fade; they are completely impervious to NEPA freeze-thaw cycles, rot, and insects, and they carry Class A fire ratings. Whether restoring a landmark estate or crowning a custom luxury build in Mountain Top or Lake Wallenpaupack, an authentic slate or Ludowici terra cotta roof is an heirloom investment that outlasts multiple generations.
