"I recommend this company, and if i had to do it again i think I would choose Roman. The work seems to have been done well, the workers seemed competent and courteous. Everyone I had verbal interaction with seemed professional. The work took nearly 6 weeks from removing the old roofing to the installation of gutters and downspouts (by what i believe was a sub-contractor). However, there is a general lack of good communication skills with this company. One day, as I was getting ready for work, a small crew showed up to install the skylight tube. As there had been no warning this was going to happen on this nor any particular day, I had to get my retired brother-in-law to come over to babysit the work so I would not have to miss work. Calls and emails made to various members of the company went ignored, so i was left in the dark about schedule and progress. The gutter and downspout installation was apparently done by a subcontractor (with a different company name than Roman on his vehicles). This was another surprise appearance....and the contractor was cursing my landscaping and the fence on the sides of my property for making the installation a challenge (how many homes do not have fencing and landscaping?!). When paying the final bill, I was surprised to find that a bunch of plywood was needed for replacement, hence a higher cost than the original price quote. .......I think mainly on the shed, as later I found the shed was infested with termites. Again with the communication! IF workers found they had to replace nearly the entire plywood sheathing on a 8x14 shed because of termite damage, wouldn't it make sense to communicate this to the homeowner?! rather than replacing the wood and saying nothing? So, again, I say the work was done well by Roman, but there's room for improvement in the communication aspect, on all levels of this company."

"It was excellence service and really fast. I would recommend them because they are affordable and they finish the job one day. They are very honest because when they check my gutter, they didn't touch the good one and just replace the part that need to be replace. They clean afterwards. They are the best."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Fort Myers Beach, FL

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.
