"Our contact was Jon Dibble. He said gutters were in good shape (except for one section that they would repair) and that we only need to replace gutter guards. They also cleaned out all gutters, all 296 feet of them. Would recommend for all exterior work."

"We love our new roof. It looks amazing! The clean up was great. The crew was very professional. The sales representative was extremely knowledgable and helped us throughout the entire process.  We had a great experience with this company. The decision was easy... Jeff Home Improvements!

"Braxton with American Roofing and Metal was able to secure us a full roof replacement when no other company would even try after it was rejected the first time from State Farm. I struggled for months fighting with them myself until I was referred to American Metal and Roofing. Braxton came out within a few days and assured me he would help me get this taken care of. He was thorough with his documentation, called our insurance company daily to hold them accountable, and kept us updated every step of the way. In one month he accomplished what we couldn't in the previous six. Can't say enough good things about this company! Would give them 10 stars if I could!"

"BHC replaced the roof on my house recently due to damage from a bad wind storm. Brandyn and crew did an amazing job! He helped me navigate dealing with insurance and even worked with them directly to get everything settled. When his crew left after finishing the work, the cleanup was impeccable, It looked like they'd never been here (aside from the new roof), as it should be. They even came back out to do another yard sweep for nails to make sure none were missed the first time. I can't recommend them enough!"

"there was an initial scheduling snafu; office scheduled appoint on inspector's day off.   
Inspector was on time, took pictures of roof, and reglued some shingles.   He suggested a new roof.

In Fall 2015 Brad from Beams Roofing inspected my mother’s house for storm damage.  Brad was very respectful and knowledgeable and worked great with my insurance company.  He felt the insurance company’s quote was too low and submitted revised measurements to obtain an additional $600.  The weather became too cold to replace the roof so we agreed to wait until Spring.  In Spring I called to schedule the installation but Brad was no longer with the company so I met with owner Wes Beams.  Mr. Beams went over insurance paperwork and wrote up a new contract (some items slightly higher cost than in the Fall).  I was a little concerned when several line items were left out of the new contract, but as I pointed them out, Mr. Beams wrote them back in.  I was also surprised when he said I would have to pay for all the material upfront (because I’ve always heard not to do that – even from my insurance company).  Due to the high rating on Angie’s List, I went ahead and agreed and provided $4200 up front.  The work was expected to take less than day, and since my mother has Alzheimer’s and we would need to make special arrangements, it was agreed the work would be done on a Sunday (they do not typically work on Saturdays).   It was also agreed that if the roof took longer than a day we would get notice (because we would need to make arrangements for mom).  On installation day we returned home at 5:00 pm and the workers had left, but the roof was not done.  We had not heard from Beams, but Monday morning the workers began hammering at 7:00 am.  This was a hard day for my mother, since we were not given ample notice to make arrangements (they were supposed to schedule a time for a 2nd day – we didn’t know they were coming Monday morning).  There were legitimate reasons the roof didn’t get done in 1 day (damp ground, replacing some rotten wood), but I wish the communication had been better.   Upon completion of roof, Mr. Beams called me the next morning to tell me he had talked with my insurance company and that I was to go ahead and pay him for the remaining cost, and when my cancelled check came back to give him a copy and he would file it with the insurance company.  That set off a few warning bells for me.  I said okay, but hung up and called my insurance company.  They had no record of speaking with him (they said they log all calls), and that this would never be the proper procedure.  They agreed to let me conference in Mr. Beam while they explained how the insurance filing worked (fax in completion details and they would issue a check in a day or two).  I met with Mr. Beams that same evening so I could go ahead and pay him our deductible share, along with some money for the boards they replaced.  I had the checks ready for him based on our contract, but Mr. Beams spent 20 minutes re-adding things up again and again, eventually agreeing that the checks I provided were exactly what the contract said.  He had a terrible attitude that evening.  He said I should pay the last $1800 the insurance owed because the contract was between me and him – not the insurance company.  I had already given him almost $6000 (most of it up-front), so I’m not sure why he was so upset over waiting an extra couple of days for the last $1800.  I told him it was my understanding that most roofing companies worked with insurance companies since not every homeowner would have the money to pay for roof installations up front and then get reimbursed.  He said he doesn’t usually work with insurance companies, and then proceeded to spend 20 minutes bashing the roof on my own house (which I had told him I had installed a couple of years ago).  He then complained that he lost money on our roof, did me a favor by working on a weekend, that he was going to go back to my insurance company and ask for more money because the measurements were wrong (his company measured).  In my opinion he was acting childish and trying to deflect from the fact he caught called out for saying the insurance company said for me to pay for the roof and get reimbursed.  Used car salesman is the impression I was left with. The roof itself looks good as far as I can tell.  They cleaned up after themselves, so no complaints in that area.

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Brooks, KY

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.
