"Sammy and his team were professional, clean and efficient. Turned up on time, worked quickly, and produced a great result. I had a chimney rebuild and the team were able to salvage and reuse the old bricks. The chimney looks great. The price was competitive. They even paved a crack in my front steps with the leftover cement."

"I had a large job with an 8 bedroom home and a 150 year old, 2 story barn. I got several estimates and these guys came in with a good price, and more important, a very complete description right down to the flashing, the ice dams, the underlayment, ridge vents and 50-year GAF shingles. They arrived close to dawn and worked til sundown, usually about 12 hours. Everything was neat and organized and the result is beautiful. I don't know if the house will last as long as this roof!! They were easy to deal with and the communication with the office was outstanding. Financial arrangements were easy. I would not have wanted to use anyone but this company."

"We had a wonderful experience with Home Pros. They did a superb job removing our old roof and installing a new beautiful cedar roof. The crew was fast, extremely professional, and neat. They took care to protect our plants, and cleaned up after each days work. Most important is that they did an excellent installation of a complex roof. Anthony Marks is a rare roofer who actually cares about the final result and the client experience. "

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Branford, CT

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.
