"They did a very good job and would definitely recommend. They did a thorough job removing 3 layers of shingles including cedar shake, installing new plywood and a new layer of shingles. Even with rain delays the job was done without hiccups and in a timely manner. No hassle."

"Mike and his crew were very professional and cleaned up nicely! I had a small roof job that needed to be done, so figured I would be looking at a crappy roof for the summer, since roofing season is already beginning. Mike came out on Monday, looked at the job and also determined it to be a small job. So small that he could have his crew out here Tuesday, the VERY next day to do the work. He required no money up front and took my check as payment after the job was complete and I was satisfied! I would definitely hire him again, heaven forbid I need to, but I was very happy with his promptness and his crews work."

"We just had Scarpone and Sons replace our roof in the middle of winter!! They chose the perfect day to rip off the existing roof and replace it in a little over a day. Lucky for us it stopped snowing just long enough for them to do what they do. They were efficient, fast, and did an excellent job. The roof no longer leaks and we are so happy! I highly recommend them to do YOUR roof. In fact we recommended them to a couple that were thinking of replacing their roof."

"American Exterior replaced my shed roof,and they did an excellent job. The sales rep arrived at my home on time and provided a quote for job within a short time The quote was well within my budget so I scheduled the job. The employees showed up on time and had the job completed within 3 hours or so. When finished they did an excellent job of cleaning up the job site. I wouldn’t hesitate to have American Exteriors do more work at my home"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Buffalo, NY

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.
