"Very responsive and always polite. Crews did a careful job removing the roof, keeping noise to a reasonable level, installing and cleaning up. The only down was an unplanned increase in the amount of replacement wood needed but perhaps that cannot be fully anticipated before seeing the state of the roof. Very good service, they handled everything."

"I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Lifetime Roofing and Renovation, specifically under the leadership of Project Manager Yonas Mesmer. My recent experience with their services was nothing short of outstanding. From the outset, Yonas and his team demonstrated professionalism and efficiency that is increasingly rare in todayâ s construction industry. They were thorough in their assessments, ensuring that every detail was accounted for before work began. Throughout the project, the team maintained a pleasant demeanor, which made the experience much more enjoyable. They communicated clearly and effectively, keeping me informed of progress and any necessary adjustments. It was evident that they valued my input and worked collaboratively. One aspect that truly set Lifetime Roofing apart was their commitment to cleanliness and care. Each day, they meticulously cleaned up the worksite, which I greatly appreciated. Additionally, they went above and beyond by replacing inadvertently disturbed plants during the project. This thoughtful gesture, while not required, demonstrated their dedication to customer satisfaction and attention to detail. In summary, I highly recommend Lifetime Roofing and Renovation and Yonas Mesmer for any roofing or renovation needs. Their professionalism, efficiency, and exceptional customer service make them a stand-out choice."

"We are first time homebuyers and the house we bought needed a roof I had a few quotes from other companies but just wasn't the right ones. I found American Cool on Angi's list and when Orli reached out she was the only one who wanted to meet at our house to go over what needed to be done she climbed up on the roof and did her thing. That's when I knew we found the right company. American Cool Roofing did an amazing job! From start to finish, the experience was smooth and stress-free. Orli, the project manager, is truly outstand-ing--professional, attentive, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is done right. You can tell they really care about their customers and treat you like family. I highly recommend American Cool Roofing to anyone looking for quality work and a company that truly puts their clients first! Affordable pricing!"

"I asked 4 different companies for an estimate to replace the shingles. Three of the contractors walked the roof and emailed an estimate. Not Apollo, after Simon walked our roof, he provided a presentation of work needing to be done, had samples of the material they use and answered all my questions. Apollo's quote was in the middle of the other ones I received but because Simon took the time to look and discuss the job, he was able to give me a detailed quote on the spot which made me feel confident in choosing Apollo Roofing. The work was completed in a week with the best crew. The roofers were courteous, kept the area clean and were approachable with any questions I had during the installation. We also had them install new gutters and down spouts. The roof is beautiful and new gutters with down spouts complement the great workmanship"

"We had a partially flat roof that had a known issue with a leak where it met a vertical wall. On inspection we learned the old tar and gravel surface as a whole generally had issues requiring attention, as did the nonexistent or inadequate flashings. Looking for a roofer, we found Lifetime had the best price and high reviews. When Tony and Dylan came out to look at the situation and discuss fixes, we found that they listened well and came up with great solutions to the parts of our roof that needed repair and did not try to oversell us to fix the parts of our roof that were in good repair. Lifetime pulled the permit and got the team to work right away under the supervision of project manager Tony. He ably supervised the team and communicated progress daily in person or by email/text or both. He answered our questions and made sure the crew cleaned up, including ensuring they honored the city’s restriction on gas-powered blowers. All in all a job well done for a reasonable price. Thank you, Tony and team!"

"I needed to get my roof repaired due to the high winds. A lot of shingles had flown off and I did not want to go through the water damage experience again. I reached out to Atom builders and they sent out their project manager, Mike. He was the best there is and thoroughly explained the entire process. The roof was done in 1 week and it looks magnificent. I highly recommend Atom Builders to anyone looking to get their roof replaced or repaired"

"Very professional company to work with. Was having leaks over the years after multiple handy man repairs, but those usually dont last especially after the hurricane we just had. When it was time to re-roof, I came across Clear View. Communication was excellent. There was not a single time someone didnt answer my call or call me back ASAP to answer any questions I may have had. Their price was right in line with the other estimates I had received, so it really came down to who can provide me with the most trustworthy work. They were on top of the project from start to finish, and completed the job exactly when they projected. Ive already recommended them to my neighbors and family members, Overall, I would work with them in the future. Definitely"

"Because I needed only a repair after a tree limb damaged the roof, many roofers either would not bid or I would have to wait for any repair. Universal did the repairs over several days by sending over crews after they had finished a prior job. Worked out well."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Albany, CA

Cedar shakes and wood shingles might seem similar, but they have some important differences. Cedar shakes are hand-split, giving them a unique, textured appearance that adds rustic charm to your roof. They're great for homeowners who want a distinctive look. Wood shingles, conversely, are machine-made, providing a smooth, uniform appearance for a more modern look. Shakes tend to be more expensive due to the craftsmanship involved but offer exceptional beauty and resilience.

A well-maintained cedar shake roof can last up to 60 years. However, factors like severe weather and improper ventilation can reduce its lifespan. You should consider replacing your roof if you notice persistent leaks, visible water damage, curling or splitting shakes, moss growth, rot, or missing shakes. Regular inspections can help you determine when it's time for a replacement.

When hiring a roofing contractor for your cedar shake roof, asking the right questions is important. Make sure they are fully certified and have extensive experience with cedar installations. Verify that their team is licensed, bonded, and insured. Ask for details about the materials they use, such as the type of underlayment and fasteners, and how they ensure proper ventilation. Getting multiple written estimates can help you compare options and choose a contractor who offers quality workmanship at a fair price.
