"Chris Sheets and the team at JD Hostetter did a full roof replacement and siding repair at our house after a storm in 2020. Then they did a full exterior paint job and added shutters in 2022. Both jobs were first rate and we couldn't have been happier with the service and the workmanship. I highly recommend them exterior house work."

"We had an addition put onto our house last year. There were endless delays, the project took much longer than estimated, and the equipment brought in tore up the yard and driveway. When cutting into the house the wall to my daughters bedroom and the living room were punched through and suffered water damage, which they magnanimously painted the one wall to cover. The yard and driveway were never addressed because it “isn’t part of the contract”. Hence, the outlet pipe for the sump pump was simply run about ten feet straight out from the house, a foot above ground. Speaking of which, the sump pump is pretty much UNDER THE BEDROOM FLOOR. The final straw for me was when I requested plain ceramic light fixtures in the closet, and was given shoddy, overpriced plastic fixtures, with the excuse being that the ceramic ones weren’t available anywhere. I’m not going to say that I was lied to, but it took me all of a trip to Walmart to find them, and replace them myself. When I presented the contractor with the cheap lights, I got a guilt trip about how he was going to have to eat the cost of them. Pity. Shortly after construction, I had an unrelated plumbing problem and contacted the plumber we used, and Apex demanded a cut before I could get the work done. Said it’s how he keeps his guys “loyal”. I ended up paying an extra $80ish for precisely nothing. So here I am, some 14 months later and still finding little problems cropping up and fixing them at my expense as they do. I’m not happy, but based on previous interactions, I guess ‘happy’ just wasn’t covered in the contract. To be fair, the overall construction is satisfactory I suppose. It looks nice and doesn’t creak in the high wind that we get here. The roof and windows don’t leak and the floors are solid, but on the other hand the walls and floor are cold as **** in winter (work was completed in summer, so who knew), and the pipes and air ducts are poorly (see also: not) insulated, which I didn’t even think was a thing. Hence, the entire section is more or less an icebox after November. Apparently I didn’t know enough to protect myself in this situation. Hindsight being 20/20, I would not use this company again."

"Nick rang my doorbell and offered a free roof inspection noting that there had been hail damage on other homes in the area. He took detailed photos, reviewed them with me and offered to work with my insurance company to get a roof replacement approved. Everything Nick said and did was truthful and helpful. The roofing crew did a great job and took care to prevent damage or leave any trash or debris. I would highly recommend Roof It Forward to anyone. The only cost to me was my insurance deductible. Great job Nick and Roof It Forward!!!"

"Carlos, the owner, responded to my request quickly, gave me an estimate, and completed the job the very next day. The following day, it rained heavily with no evidence of roof leakage. Carlos was willing to show me why the roof was leaking and showed me what he did to ameliorate the problem. I would definitely hire him to either repair a roof or even to replace an entire roof. This person knows roofing. I will recommend him to any of my neighbors if asked. Ken M."

"All-American Restoration is hands-down the best company I have ever used for roofing. Brad is an amazing person and treats his customers with respect. We used him a few years ago to roof our house when we were selling it and found out in the inspection it had hail damage. The timing for the work was critical because were also moving to a new house and needed it done fast. His crew was out literally the next day and had it done the same day. We also used him to repair our existing roof due to some wind damage. He worked me in the schedule and fixed it before rain was expected. If it would have rained before the repair, it would have been catastrophic. His prices are very competitive. He is a good person and will treat you right! I HIGHLY recommend him."

"Eads gave us a solution that another company could not. Our roof didn't need replacing, which is what the other company wanted to do, but it did need the water leak repaired and I wanted to improve ventilation in another area of the roof. The initial response was very good and Chase rearranged his schedule to meet with me right away and discuss my problems. The work was high quality, in my opinion, and I'm confident we made the right choice going with Eads Roofing. There were some delays in communication on occasion but the work was done in a reasonable amount of time and everyone was great to work with."

"It has been an absolute pleasure working with Ryan and the guys at blue ladder. We knew we were gonna need repairs and had talked to a place or two beforehand, and we're getting absolutely nowhere, and a little desperate if I'm being honest. One day, out of the blue, Ryan showed up and offered to take a look. Within just a few weeks, we had a new roof. And throughout all this winter they have fought with the insurance to make sure we got all our siding replaced. They really came through, and I cannot recommend them enough. Please give these guys a call!"

"Indy legacy builders recently completed a new roof, gutters, and copper roof above our bay window. Dave provided a preliminary assessment of our roof and estimate. After filing an insurance claim Dave came back to our home and met with the adjuster to discuss the hail damage found on the roof and gutters. There were multiple supplemental attachments provided by Dave, that I submitted to insurance as the insurance company didn't account for certain variables and material costs. Scheduling was flawless with Indy Legacy Builders. They removed our old gutters, replaced rotten fascia, and trim. We had painters come out and paint the new trim and siding before the new roof and gutters were installed. Dave's crew were early to the job and worked into the evening completing the roof in less than 36 hours. Gutters, and the bay window copper roofing were installed to finish it off. All landscaping was covered well for the demo and magnets were rolled all around the house and landscaping to remove any excess nails from install. The shingle warranty was promptly sent over to us for our records. Dave worked with us and insurance to get the job done. I recommend Dave to my friends, family, neighbors, and clients. You will be in good hands."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Fortville, IN

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.
