"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!"

"TTLC did a great job with my roof install that had 20 years of wear and tear. Very professional throughout the entire process. The roof is now much better than the original builder-grade quality that was there before. My project manager Matthew Long was professional and gave updates throughout the project."

"I highly recommend M Construction- their roofing work on my home was exemplary! M Construction's Chuck and Mike are knowledgeable, honest, great communicators, and trustworthy. They provided me with roofing milestone dates and met every milestone. Their pricing is very competitive and they used premium materials throughout. I'm unfamiliar with the roofing process which is why it was so important to have Chuck and Mike guiding and informing me throughout. They sent me pictures of the roofing work completed each day which really put my mind at ease. I made an excellent choice in choosing M Construction and I'm so happy and grateful that I did! They did a fantastic job installing my new asphalt shingle roof, constructing and installing new soffits and fascia, and also new gutters and gutter guards. My roof is beautiful, my soffit expertly constructed and installed, and my new gutters and gutter guards got tested during the recent thunderstorms and scored an A+. I am very impressed and thrilled with their work. My neighbors observed and commented on the excellent work M Construction's team did during the roof installation, which they finished in one day. Wow- do not hesitate to hire M Construction for your next roofing job!"

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