"So Disappointed. Chris Binion, the owner of Spectrum Roofing in Metairie was a friendly and responsive man during the sales process. Unfortunately, he disappeared after our roofing permit inspection failed. Per the St. Tammany parish inspectors and officials, he failed to submit the appropriate geo photos to them, demonstrating a proper roof with 2 layers of underlayment, etc. One unfortunate result of Spectrum Roofing's sub-par work is that we are now unable to renew our property insurance or sell the house. We can only assume that Chris did not install our roof properly. I'm fact, the parish told me this is the first permit application they have on file from Spectrum Roofing. So in addition to reporting Chris to the Louisiana State Licensing Board, It seems we now have to hire a new roofer to both remove Spectrum's failed roof and then reinstall a new roof. This time, I will not pay until I have a final roofing permit in hand. A hard lesson to learn."

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