"I so wanted to move before we had to replace the roof on our circa 1960 architecturally interesting beast of a flat roof. But when we were doing what we thought were modest fixes to prepare for painting, we discovered a "squishy" roof and couldn't put it out. Thanks to suggestions from friends and info from Angi, we got 3 estimates from 3 great companies. All agreed the roof needed replaced, each suggested a different substance but all 3 prices were about the same. We worked with Tyler who educated us just enough to help us make an informed decision. What set the Frey estimate apart was they included a lower roof, gutters, new coping (we all know how these jobs seem to creep) and it was August and they said they thought they could get it done before the end of the year. Once you know you roof needs replaced, it seems like it rains every day and you want it done. He explained there were others before us, and Tammy kept us in the loop. Hand to God, in December, it was our turn. As promised, they got it done before the end of the year. I wasn't sure about having it done in December, but they worked quickly. We were updated about the schedule. It was Covid so we didn't have contact. When the snow melted we found very little roofing debris and they came out to pick up any materials that remained. We paid for everything, we were fine but then friends and neighbors pointed out the color we chose didn't work with the house. We chose white, but we didn't realize how much of the roof was roof and how much was white. I emailed my concerned, Tammy forwarded it to her people. Jason, John and Lyncs came back and were professional and kind and suggested a way to tone down the white. Again, I was updated and they replaced, covered over, I'm not sure what else and we couldn't be happier. It was our fault and we were fully prepared to pay for the extra supplies and time - but Frey Construction did it for no extra charge. Like I said, I didn't want to do a roof and I hope I never have to do a roof again. But if you need a roof, Frey is the company to go with. I felt they wanted to do a great job and wanted us to be happy and they did both of those things. A homeowner had to trust with a new roof. I don't think I'll ever see it, but I know it was done well. It's a quirky house with interesting architecture and a 50 year old roof that hasn't leaked. Previous homeowners thought about replacing it but didn't. I get it. We are so happy to have this in the rear view mirror and grateful to everyone at Frey's. If you think you might need to replace your roof, don't wait til August to contact roofers. But if that happens to you, go to Frey."

"Chad and his crew were absolutely amazing. From the first sales call, until the last nail of completion, I knew we could count on him. He had been referred, and we immediately felt comfortable with Chad, as he patiently explained the value in a significant undertaking - this roof will be there another 200 years, the quality is just that good! The work was on-time, professional, and the crew did a great job of cleaning up when they are done. We plan to use Metal Roofs Direct for other roofs when the time comes!"

"Brandon is a real professional who cares about his customers from every aspect of a roofing job. I called for a bid on a rental property and he was at the home within an hour and gave me an estimate over the phone; scheduling the job for only 1 1/2 weeks out. Job was complete on time and my tenants were very pleased with the whole crew from their professionalism to the clean up (His exact words: I couldn't even find asphalt dust on the ground) I will call them with any other job I have in the future; and recommend them to anyone even the picky customer!"

"If you need a roofing job done right away and done well, hire L.I.C. General Roofing Solutions. We had an old garage roof that badly needed replacing and I sent a request for quote through Angi. They responded and called me that evening! The next day he visited the property and gave us quote, then 2 days later, started and finished the job in 1 day. There were unforceen rotten boards that we had to replace, so the final cost was higher, but that’s to be expected. Overall, a very responsive, experienced, and professional company. Would recommend!"

"Awesome! The person that we worked with was willing to go above and beyond to help us. I have a feeling this is true with the company in general. Very personable and professional at the same time. Flexible, hard working, knowledgeable, and they seem to be honest. While we haven't had any work done as of yet, RMZ is definitely the first place I will call for all matters relating to my roof and gutters!

"Again, this is in reference to the quote process. We have gone with another vendor for the roof replacement. Salesman was knowledgeable, prompt, and courteous. I think the information he gave about his product to be correct, and I believe his product is very good. The only information I might question is that he claimed his aluminum shingles have the highest fire rating, but this usually isn't the case since aluminum softens starting about 400F. None-the-less, I'm certain it is much more fire resistant than any conventional shingle. But the sales was low-key, high pressure. Very slick presentation. Stressed all the things wrong with the roof (said it needed replacement very soon and had lots of problems) as well as being complex. Multiple times talked about how heavy the existing shingles were (as if the roof wasn't designed for asphalt shingles). Gave a quote of about $60+K, but immediately offered 10% off if we maintain a sign on our front lawn for several weeks and another 10% if they could do the roof at their convenience, bring the cost to $50+K. If decking needed to be replaced, they'd do it for $75 per sheet in addition to the contract price. Finally, said the discounts were only good about 3 days. Seems like the $50K price is the real price, with a 10% extra for rush jobs. The salesman job seems to want to make an offer and try to get you to commit quick. At the beginning of the presentation, he even asked if we had already talked to other companies (we hadn't). Possibly if we had, he might have taken a different tact. Their web site has a "Sign up for a chance for a free roof". People that buy a roof from this company, are not only paying for their own roof, but for the company's PR as well. Bringing in other companies for quotes, we were told the roof is in good shape (should be replaced in the next few years), and that it would be simple installation. Other quotes came in at the $29K to $31K. Decking sheets were priced at $45 to $60. I seriously think Metal Roofing Systems will provide a good product, and professional installation. But be certain to do your own research and get a few quotes for your job."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Columbus, WI

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.
