Synthetic roofing uses engineered materials as an alternative to traditional roof coverings. For Broken Arrow projects, Infinity Roofing and Construction reviews the roof condition, records visible aging or damage, and discusses whether a synthetic system fits the structure and the planned replacement. DaVinci is among the trusted roofing manufacturers the company installs.
Synthetic roofing can give a property the profile of slate or shake without assuming every roof needs the same material. Infinity first looks at the existing roof, structure, slope, transitions, flashing, ventilation, and the exact synthetic product being considered.
Synthetic roofing is often considered when the goal is the visual character of slate or shake. The right choice still depends on the building, roof shape, selected product, and how that system handles the details on your specific roof.
Before material selection, Infinity evaluates visible roof conditions, prior repairs, penetrations, flashing, drainage paths, ventilation, and other factors that may affect whether replacement or a different roofing approach makes more sense.
“Synthetic roofing” covers different products. The proposal should name the selected manufacturer and system, identify the intended profile, and follow the requirements that apply to that exact material rather than using one generic installation approach.
Broken Arrow roofing systems have to deal with strong sun, summer heat, thunderstorms, hail, and wind-driven weather. Local National Weather Service forecasts help show why material selection cannot be separated from installation details. Infinity looks at the roof’s slope, transitions, drainage paths, flashing, ventilation, exposed edges, previous repairs, and the selected synthetic product before the project scope is finalized.
A synthetic roof is more than the visible tile or shake. The approved scope should coordinate the deck, underlayment, layout, fastening, edges, flashing, ventilation, accessories, and manufacturer instructions so the finished roof works as one system.
The deck must provide a suitable base for the approved roofing system. Existing conditions are reviewed before work, and concealed deterioration found after tear-off is documented before any added deck work is authorized.
The specified underlayment and approved protection at vulnerable areas work beneath the finished synthetic material. Their placement should match the roof geometry and the manufacturer’s installation requirements.
Synthetic tiles or shakes need the correct exposure, alignment, spacing, and fastening pattern for the selected product. Layout decisions also affect the finished appearance across long runs, hips, ridges, and intersecting slopes.
Valleys, sidewalls, headwalls, chimneys, skylights, pipes, and roof edges need flashing and trim details that coordinate with the synthetic system rather than being treated as afterthoughts.
Existing intake and exhaust ventilation are reviewed along with penetrations and roof openings. Any approved correction needs to work with the new roofing material and the roof’s actual geometry.
Cleanup, debris removal, final review, selected accessory details, and closeout information should all be defined so you know what the finished project includes beyond the field material.
Base scope should identify the approved tear-off, deck evaluation, underlayment, selected synthetic roofing material, fastening and layout requirements, flashing and edge details, ventilation work shown in the proposal, cleanup, and final review. Roof-specific additions can include deteriorated decking, structural correction, specialty trim or flashing, unusual wall and chimney details, code-related changes, or owner-requested upgrades. Infinity documents concealed conditions and reviews the additional work before it is added to the project.
Synthetic products vary in profile, size, weight, installation method, accessory requirements, and availability. Those differences can change labor, waste, detailing, scheduling, and cost, especially on roofs with valleys, walls, dormers, chimneys, or other complex intersections.
Roof area, pitch, access, tear-off conditions, deck repairs, product choice, roof complexity, cuts and waste, specialty flashing, ventilation work, disposal, and permits can all affect the final price.
Material ordering, roof geometry, delivery timing, weather, access, concealed deck conditions, approved scope changes, permits, and inspections can all affect when the work is completed.
Clear driveways and gates, move vehicles away from the work zone, protect fragile items and attic belongings, and identify access concerns before tear-off and material delivery begin.
Every Infinity inspection and maintenance visit includes photo and video documentation. For a synthetic roofing decision, that visual record helps connect material choices to the roof that is actually there, including penetrations, transitions, prior repairs, flashing, and areas that may need more attention.
Infinity installs roofing systems from manufacturers that include DaVinci as well as GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, and Malarkey. The final proposal should identify the product selected for your project and the installation details that apply to it.

These answers cover the choices that matter before a synthetic slate or shake look is written into the roofing proposal.
Synthetic roofing is a broad category of manufactured roofing products designed to create specific profiles, including slate-like and shake-like appearances. Materials, dimensions, fastening methods, ratings, and installation requirements vary by product, so the exact system should be identified in the proposal.
Yes, many synthetic products are designed around slate or shake profiles, but appearance varies by manufacturer, product line, color, exposure, and roof shape. Review the actual product and color selection rather than relying only on a small screen image or category name.
Infinity’s supported roofing manufacturers include DaVinci. Availability and suitability should be confirmed for the specific project, and the proposal should identify the selected product and the details required for that roof.
No. Do not assume every synthetic roofing product has the same impact, wind, or fire rating. Ratings belong to specific tested products or assemblies. Review the current manufacturer documentation for the exact material being considered.
It may be possible when damage is limited and matching material is available, but the surrounding roof, fastening method, flashing, underlayment, access, and product condition all affect whether a focused repair is practical.
Expect an onsite evaluation, measurements, a review of roof geometry and visible conditions, product selection, scope development, and confirmation of ordering and permit needs. If tear-off later reveals concealed deck damage, it should be documented before extra work proceeds.
Schedule an onsite evaluation to document the current roof, review synthetic roofing options, and build a written scope around the material, details, and conditions of your Broken Arrow property.
