"Kevin was very professional and answered all my questions easily. Green Valley was by no means the cheapest quote we received, but we felt comfortable they would do quality work. If the cheapest price is your only concern, then Green Valley is the wrong company for you. We were foremost concerned with quality, and we were willing to pay for the quality we expected. After all, the warranty on a metal roof is only as good as the company who installs it, so I wanted a company that is local and stands by their work. And, they had better financing options that our bank, which was impressive. Kevin was great, and he showed us exactly what brands they used for skylights (Velux) and metal shingles (Decra XD), and he showed us samples of the products and why they were better quality. And, it wasn’t just talk, the samples matched exactly with what materials were used on the jobsite. Believe me, I checked, lol! Green Valley delivered exactly what they said they would. Kevin answered my questions about how they handled jobs that didn’t exactly go according to plan (because customer service definitely matters when things go wrong). A metal roof is a big financial investment, and I wanted to make sure that Green Valley recognized the amount of trust necessary for that kind of expense. Kevin set a great, positive tone for the company. We felt comfortable enough to sign that day, even though I had two more appointments with other roofing companies. The crew that came out to tear off and replace the asphalt roofing was AMAZING. They tore off and replaced the entire roof on the house and garage, installed the giant skylight and my beloved sun tunnel, cleaned everything up, and were done IN A DAY AND A HALF!! I was shocked they were that fast. They cleaned up every single time before they left for the day, and they constantly checked for any nails, which I appreciated since I have dogs. They arrived promptly every morning and were professional and thoughtful to work clean at all times. David came back for the final inspection of the roof, and I thought he would do a cursory, “Ok, looks great, thanks bye” without really looking things over. Boy, was I wrong. David was up on the roof inspecting and touching up here and there for the better part of two hours, and it was hot as **** out. That’s the attention to detail that I chose Green Valley for over the other companies out there. If you are spending this much money, you want someone who is more picky than you are, and for this reason, David is amazing. One small thing that was a little frustrating was the fact they installed the sun tunnel at an angle, not straight down as we had previously discussed. Being hunched over in an extremely hot and cramped attic, trying to make the sun tunnel line up in the kitchen was not fun. Fortunately, David had ordered me the extension kit, just in case, so I was able to correct the problem myself. Regardless, I love that sun tunnel so much, and my only regret is that I did not get another one for the living room or office. It lets in so much light, but without the heat from a skylight! Win win in the summertime! I LOVE MY VELUX SUN TUNNEL! I am so happy with it. We are already talking about replacing all the windows in the house, and I will definitely be calling Green Valley when we do. I have recommended Green Valley to my friends and family, and I would use them again, without hesitation."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Gladstone, IL

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.
