"Excellent service and follow-up. The roof was completed in one day and the gutters and downspouts two days later. Nick kept us informed throughout the process."

"The ShakeGuys replaced my cedar roof with DaVinchi Select Shake. The sales lead Chris P invested a lot of time taking me through options and answering questions. Tracey N was on top of communicating the scheduling of everything. Josh F the project manager did a great job overseeing the work, which went smoothly and on-time. The crew did a top notch professional job installing the new composite shake on a complex roof profile. Several neighbors commented on how professional they were, with minimal disruption.. They cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. Don't take short cuts when it comes to a new roof. Call the ShakeGuys and get it done right. They did an awesome job."

"We needed a roof replacement and were looking for a company we could trust. Berg Roofing did a great job on our roof from start to finish They delivered exactly what was promised at the price quoted, with no high-pressure sales tactics. We also appreciated that they provided a list of local homes with the shingle colors we were considering, which made the decision much easier. Working with Nick made the process simple and stress-free. He was responsive, kept us informed about scheduling, and clearly explained our options and pricing. On installation day, the crew arrived right on time, worked efficiently, and left the property spotless when they were done. Their workmanship was impressive. We?re extremely happy with the results and would confidently recommend Berg Roofing to anyone seeking reliable, high-quality service."

"Efficient and Communicative - Eugene provided all the detailed information about the roof replacement process/ shingle options/ warranties and was always available for questions. His crew completed the replacement in two days and cleaned up around the home. I would rehire for any future work."

"Robert was right on time to my home in Bartlett. He is very easy to talk to. He explained his pricing and what he was going to do very clearly. After he climbed up on the roof he was able to assess the situation fairly quickly. It was a pretty simple repair he was able to do it right here on the spot. His price for the job was very reasonable. It ended up being something very small. I really appreciate Roberts honesty. He didn't try to sell me any extra work. This is a truly outstanding company. I wish that more repair/construction companies were like this one. I have saved his company as one of my favorites in Home Advisor and when I need roofing, gutter soffit repair they are definitely a people I'm going to call."

"I couldn't be happier! The guys at Rapid Response were very thorough and fast replacing my roof, and they did an excellent job cleaning up the debris all around the house before they left. I am very pleased and will be hiring them again for siding next spring!"

"In May 2020, A&D Exteriors completed 2 large projects for my wife and I: 1) they replaced our asphalt shingle roof, and 2) they installed vinyl siding to replace our cedar siding. We are extremely pleased with how both projects turned out! Kevin Kowalski was the project manager for both projects, and he was a pleasure to work with. He came to our house to evaluate what we wanted done, and he emailed us detailed proposals for each project. The prices were very competitive, and we signed the proposals to move forward. From start to finish, Kevin kept us informed about the status of things, and he always answered our questions promptly. A&D Exteriors also has a designer, Heidi, and she came out to give us her ideas, including helping us choose colors. The roof replacement was done first, and it was completed in 1 day. Eugene was the foreman of a large crew of 7. They came at 7:30am and were done at 3:30pm. Importantly, the crew did a terrific job of cleaning up. Something we particularly liked was that they didn’t put a fixed dumpster in our driveway, they used a dump trailer on wheels to avoid doing damage to the driveway. The dump trailer was dropped off the night before, and was taken away the same day after the roof replacement was finished. The siding project was next, and Arthur was the foreman of a crew of 2. The 2 of them did an amazing job putting up the vinyl Board and Batten vertical siding and the LP SmartSide engineered wood trim to closely match the existing look of our Tudor style house. The work was completed in 4.5 days, and the house looks great! They also did a thorough job of cleaning up. We give A&D Exteriors our highest recommendation!"

"Excellent Gutter Work! I had new oversized 6" gutters installed by Seidel Exterior Group, and I'm really impressed with the quality of the work. Udo Seidel’s team was professional from start to finish, and a special shoutout to Marty, who did the installation. He worked quickly, did a clean and careful job, and the end result looks fantastic. We have a mix of big-leaf, small-leaf, and pine trees around the house, so I opted to skip gutter guards and go for larger-capacity gutters instead—and I'm glad I did. Marty made sure everything was installed with attention to detail, and the system looks built to handle heavy rain and debris. Highly recommend Seidel Exterior Group if you're looking for reliable, high-quality exterior work!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Barrington, IL

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.
