"Contacted several roofing contractors in the area. His quote was near the low end. I am a contractor, so I know what to expect. He showed up on time and provided an estimate quickly. Gave a truthful response to when he could start which could have cost him the job, but I waited. Finished the job in three days with a crew of seven. Removed all debris and swept for nails around the house and driveway. Replaced two layers of shingles (approx. 4K sqft), five skylights, five sheets of damaged plywood, jacked up one roofing rafter, installed all new flashing and vent jacks, and replaced all reverse board and batt on chimney. At no charge, he installed 60 feet of gutter screens which matched the gutters! It felt like a friend came to do the work. Two weeks later and he called to make sure we were satisfied."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Kentwood, LA

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.
