"Solarshield Metal Roofing was very professional from the sales team to the contractors from start to finish. Everyone I spoke to was eager to help with any questions I asked and had an understanding whether it was their department or not. They were very respectful of my property and finished in a timely manner. Once the job was finished it was like they weren’t even there aside from a stunning new roof."

"Robert and his crew were wonderful. Extremely responsive and the workmanship was great. We have a 100 year old stucco home and they were able to match the texture. Also extremely reasonable pricing. Really can’t say enough good things about Robert and his guys!"

"Mike came out and inspected the roof. He sent me an estimate and kept in close contact. They were able to do the job earlier in the month than expected. The work was quickly and professionally done, and when Mike received my check he emailed me to give me an overview of the state of my roof and possible work to be done in the future. It was a pleasure to work with him."

"Our house was built in 1941. It is a two-story red brick house that was coated in at least eight layers of white lead-based paint.  At the time that we bought the house, it was in a state of disrepair. The paint was peeling off in places.  The woodwork was falling apart. The wood on our screened porch needed to be replaced and the porch needed to be rescreened.  The entire house and a detached structure/shed either needed to be painted or to have the paint removed from the bricks and the woodwork and trim repainted.  
My husband and I were torn between repainting the entire house or stripping the brick and repainting only the trim and woodwork.  We knew that if we striped the brick, we wanted to have a very specific strip and peel product used on the house.  We did not want to have the house sandblasted.  
We solicited bids on both projects from at least three different companies. Ultimate Custom Painting's bids on both projects (repainting the entire house or striping the brick and repainting just the trim and woodwork) were higher than all of the other companies.  In spite of this fact, we decided to hire Ultimate Custom Painting to remove all of the paint from the brick using a peel and strip method, repaint all of the trim and woodwork, and paint and rescreen the porch.  The striping and painting was also done to a detached shed.  Our decision was based on a few factors.  First, after talking to Rick, I felt that he most clearly understood the project and the result that we were looking for.  Additionally, Rick also seem to be the only painter who had extensive experience using this particular peel and strip product on a project of this size and scope.  Finally,  we liked the fact that Ultimate Custom Painting is EPA-certified to deal with lead-based paint.  We decided that the extra expense was more than justified by the expertise and the quality of the work that we anticipated receiving from Ultimate Custom Painting.  We were not disappointed.
Ultimate Custom Painting's crew spent 3 to 4 weeks working on the exterior of our house. The project involved applying the peel and strip product to all of the brick, letting it sit for 24 hours, and then removing the product and the underlying paint. Once the brick was done, the trim was replaced or repaired  as needed and then painted.  Finally, the screened porch needed to be repaired, painted, and rescreened.  
All striping and painting was completed beautifully.  The house looks amazing.  The crew took great pains to ensure that the application was even and consistent across the entire house. The woodwork was done beautifully.  Old shutters that had numerous layers of paint on them were each individually stripped, primed and repainted. They look like new.  The woodwork that needed to be repaired or replaced was done and then it was primed and painted.  Overall, the house looks amazing and we are constantly receiving compliments from neighbors and from people passing through the neighborhood.
The crew that worked on our house was great.  The communication was fantastic.  They never made any assumptions about what I might or might not want. Anytime a decision had to be made I was consulted.  I always knew when they were going to be working and what they would be doing.  
My only negative experience with the entire project involved the carpentry work on the screened porch.  The carpenter that was used on this project was not nearly as skilled as the painters.  The work on the porch was shabby compared to the 
work that Ultimate Custom Painting was doing on the rest of the house and compared to what other painting companies had told me that their carpenters would do.  For example, when the carpenter rescreened the porch he used nails that were too long and went through the walls of the porch.  His solution to this was to cut off all the nails on the inside of the porch and leave sharp metal edges over the entire interior of the porch.  When the painting crew discovered this, they did everything possible to remedy the situation including filling the holes with caulking and repainting places that were showing through.  Additionally, small pieces of decorative woodwork that should have been repaired and replaced on the porch were left off altogether.  Finally, I had a wood picnic table on the porch that was used as a work surface during the project.  This didn't bother me until the house was finished and everyone had left.  I then discovered more than six 2-inch wood screws that had been screwed down into the top of my table.  While my picnic table is not aesthetically the most beautiful table out there, it held great sentimental value to me.  I was upset to see that anything had been screwed into it without my being notified ahead of time.  More importantly, the screws had been left there for me to remove.
While I would never hesitate to use Ultimate Custom Painting again and I recommend them to to anyone who asks for a painting company, in the future I will request that a different carpenter be used or hire my own carpenter for the woodwork repairs.  Overall though, I cannot speak highly enough of this company and the work that they did.  This was an incredibly difficult project with many unknowns at the outset.  The crew handled it beautifully and my husband and I now have a exterior of our house that we love every time we enter the driveway."

"Everything went great from initial estimate through cleanup! This company was referred to me by a friend whose metal roof they had installed. Everything they did was professional, courteous & on time from beginning to end. The estimate was honest, accommodating and low pressure, the office was friendly, the workers were prompt & worked hard. Everyone was super easy to work with. Plus they did the work that some others weren’t interested in looking at bc it is a shared garage."

"It went quite well, considering the weather. The owner and his help had to work through rain, snow and especially mud. But they worked on and the end result was quite amazing. First, I couldn't believe how well built the deck was. I think it could withstand an earthquake. The steps and a landing are of the same high-quality workmanship. I am very pleased with the whole project and would not hesitate to use them again."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in East Vandergrift, PA

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.
