"During an insurance inspection we were told our roof needed attention before the policy renewal. Sean with Imperia Roofing & Exteriors came out to look at it and confirmed a few areas that needed repair. They handled the work quickly and gave us the documentation we needed for the insurance company."

"Rhinos Roofing exceeded my expectations. Miguel was able to realistically assess the job and provide me with a detailed quote. His team executed the work flawlessly. I purposely waited until the bulk of this winters rain had past before posting a review. Clearly a successful roofing job. He is also a really nice person and I have no doubt that he would be a very reasonable person to work with had any issue come up. My new roof is fantastic and it looks nice too. Pricing was reasonably as well. God Bless Rhinos Roofing! "

"I was really pleased with the new roof job Lifetime Roofing and Renovation performed for my mom's house that I decided to hire them again for my house. Tony the project manager and his crew once again knocked it out of the park. The work done efficiently and and with quality/care. My wife and I are very pleased with how the project came out. The price point for concrete tiles is what I expected given the rising costs of material and labor."

"Excellent work. Project manager spent the time to carefully inspect the existing roof, explain the results of the inspection, and provide me with options. Once the project got underway, he did an excellent job of keeping me informed of the status of the work and of any recommended changes to the original plan. Work crew was diligent."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Greenbrae, CA

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.
