"I purchased a house in Charlevoix and during renovations in the middle of winter learned my roof was in much worse condition than our inspector reported. Green Horizons, and Steve the owner, were extremely responsive and fair and were able to install a beautiful metal roof even during periods of heavy snow. Steve kept absolutely every promise and it was one of the easiest home repair projects I have ever had. Although it was an expensive roof, it looks great and should last for many decades, so I don't regret the cost the least bit."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Lake City, MI

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.
