"I had a few companies come out and they wanted to sell me a new roof. My roof is only two years old. They did not listen to my request for the work I needed.I would hire this man again , he’s honest. I had a boot loose. He fixed it and caulked it that’s all I needed."

"The roof was done in a timely manner, and it was well done. From the tearing off of the old roof, clean up, and the new roof, it was very well done. I would highly recommend this service as I was very pleased."

"Honestly Kevin and his team outperformed my wildest expectations. They were incredible to work with, explaining the process and helping me make the most cost effective decisions as a first time homeowner rather than pushing me into the most expensive options. They performed an excellent job, replacing the roof in a single morning and doing a perfect cleanup job. Kevin himself even came back the next day to do a walk around to make sure his team got every last screw. It also rained that night so he checked the roof in the attic to make sure everything was perfect. There is no other company I will ever trust with my roof."

"Everything was going great at the start of the project with the demo of the old deck in March 2016. However the craftsmanship of the carpenter was not very good, boards were rough cut and the gaps between the deck boards were inconsistent. Luis then stained the deck as promised, however this was too early to stain and the deck boards start seeping sap. It was unusable, we asked him to repair which he did, and they did a great job of fixing and re-staining the deck boards."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Alto, GA

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.
