"Franos worked with my insurance company for a year to get approval for a storm damaged roof. Complete tear off and replacement completed in 1 day. When they were finished the only sign that they were there is a new roof. No scraps or nails left anywhere! Crew was courteous, efficient and did a great job!"

"Wow. I have never had a major home project go so smoothly!! From my first phone call to get an estimate until the final installment of the roof, every step was completed promptly and without problems.. I called for an estimate and Steve Pinsler came out the very next day. Steve was easy to work with and I was always able to reach him. Steve's price was better than other quotes we had gotten for the same or lesser quality roof.He's crew pulled off the old roof and replaced it in one day. They were polite, on time, worked quickly, and did an excellent clean up job. I absolutely recommended hiring A&D Home Improvement!"

"Excellent Gutter Work! I had new oversized 6" gutters installed by Seidel Exterior Group, and I'm really impressed with the quality of the work. Udo Seidel’s team was professional from start to finish, and a special shoutout to Marty, who did the installation. He worked quickly, did a clean and careful job, and the end result looks fantastic. We have a mix of big-leaf, small-leaf, and pine trees around the house, so I opted to skip gutter guards and go for larger-capacity gutters instead—and I'm glad I did. Marty made sure everything was installed with attention to detail, and the system looks built to handle heavy rain and debris. Highly recommend Seidel Exterior Group if you're looking for reliable, high-quality exterior work!"

"What a welcome surprise to find a company that actually values quality & customer service!! This was the best possible experience we could have imagined! Not only did Mike show up on time to examine our roof for any storm damage, but he also came back to meet with the insurance adjusters to explain his findings & answer their questions. Chuck put together a fair & competitive contract that met the insurance guidelines. Once the contract was signed, Mike was here everyday to supervise the project. The roofers showed up on time, every day, working a 10-12 hour day to make sure any shingles removed were completely replaced before they left for the day to avoid any exposure to the elements of an unprotected roof. Chuck was in constant communication with me via phone or text to answer any questions & keep me apprised of the progress. Photos of the progress were sent at the end of each day. We had a surprise yellow jacket infestation in our eaves but the roofers continued to work on another part of the roof while we called in an exterminator. The gutter & downspout installers also showed up on time & completed our project as promised. Chuck & Mike work very well together & run a very professional company. I found them through previous reviews on this site & certainly appreciated those who took the time to submit their experience & reviews of the service they received from this company. Chuck told me I would not be disappointed & he was right. M Construction not only met my expectations, they exceeded them with their excellent customer service, quality construction, timely communication & willingness to go above & beyond to exceed my expectations. As a perfectionist, who values quality, honesty & excellent customer service, I can highly recommend them for your roofing project."

"They did amazing work, helped me jump a car with a dead battery to get it out of the way, and were able to do my whole roof in one day. They also cleaned up after themselves making sure nothing was left behind and that there were no old nails or debris anywhere."

"We have once again reached out to Joe Kim at J & K Home Improvements when we had a new project planned. We were completely satisfied when we replaced our siding and roof with Joe. Now Joe and his professional crew have replaced all our windows . There are never surprises or additions from when the job is quoted. Once again we are totally satisfied and delighted with their work!! It has been a stress free experience each and every time."

"They did a great job of leveling the flat roof, and integrating it with cedar shakes. We needed the work done soon, and they were on it as soon as the weather broke. I am delighted!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Great Lakes, 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.
