"David from Clearview Roofing was fantastic in helping replace the roof at my daycare center. We had a huge leak, and he was incredibly speedy with the repairs. He took care of everything from A to Z, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!"

"Our experience with Roofing Angels was second to none! We were dreading the thought of replacing our roof, thinking it would be a stressful, drawn-out process, but Daniel and his team made it completely hassle-free. From day one, the communication was excellent. Daniel kept us updated throughout, ensuring that we knew what to expect. The crew was professional, polite, and worked incredibly efficiently. They completed the entire roof replacement in a timely manner, staying on schedule despite some unexpected weather delays. What really stood out was their attention to detail. They didn’t cut corners and ensured every aspect of the installation was done with care. They also did an amazing job cleaning up—I was worried about finding stray nails in my yard, but they left the property spotless. The price was competitive, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. I would 100% recommend Roofing Angels to anyone needing a new roof."

"I called around to a bunch of companies, and most made things sound complicated or too pricey. Green Ladder Roofing was the complete opposite. They handled everything, from financing to cleanup, and kept me in the loop the entire time. The roof came out so clean and well done that it feels like a brand-new house"

"My project was for new roof n gutters, I had to have my old 3 layers of shingles removed. The team that demolished old roof shingles did a good job. Although it was a messy task, plastic sheeting was laid down n all material was disposed off. New plywood was laid down, there were a couple of spots that the plywood was not laying completely flat n was addressed. New shingles were installed in 2 days n look great. For the new seamless gutter install, the existing fascia needed painting but Newhaus wanted an extra 4,000.00 dollars to do it. So I hired a separate painter to do it for less than half the price. The gutters proposed were not the style I wanted n had to have them switch to what I wanted. The new gutters were installed n look great. Overall I am satisfied with the quality of the work n materials used although there were a couple leaks at corners that has to be re-sealed. However dealing with Newhaus could have been better, upon signing the contract online I did not hear from them for over a week to let me know the status or when work would start. I had to text the original sales guy to ask what was going on. The were also a couple of times workers did not show up when scheduled or were late from time that they were supposed to show up."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Altadena, 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.
