"Keith Roofing is great! Very professional and knowledgeable when it comes to roofing problems. They specialize in old homes in the Capitol Hill/Georgetown area. After renovating our home a couple years back we had new windows installed in the brick frame. Recently we've had mold accumulate above a doorway on top of which there is a green roof and a window. While we thought the problem was from faulty caulking where the green roof sits, the rep from Keith Roofing instantly pointed out that it was quite common for windows in these old houses to leak! He took it upon himself to caulk both the green roof and the window FOR FREE as a favor. We are sure to be using Keith Roofing in the future! If you have an old brick home in DC you have to use Keith Roofing. They know their stuff!"

"We had a roof leak and Amazing Skylights made quick work of it. They were very helpful and responsive and saved us from further water damage. It's been six months and no recurring issues. We had a great experience with them."

"My overall experience with Ribba Construction was great and I am happy I selected them for my project. Because of the damaging winds 7 months ago (March 2018) and a terribly wet 2018 summer; the demand for roofers is crazy outrageous. With shortage of roofers and constant inclement weather, some roofing companies were 60 days out just to have an estimate appointment and another 6-8 weeks from the time a contract was signed before work could start. Some roofing companies imposed a contract minimum of $2,500. Other roofing companies were not **** small leak roof repairs, instead they were only doing entire roof replacements. I literally worked my way from the A’s on Angie’s List down to the R’s. Along that journey, many of the vendors I contacted just did not care about my active leak as it was to small of a job as described or my job did not meet their new criteria for work. I was happy when I contacted Ribba Construction as the scheduler showed concern about my project and the active leak issue despite the job being smaller than usual. Ribba sent HB to take a look at the problem. HB arrived as scheduled and was friendly and professional. He provided a timely estimate when promised. He even took pictures to show me his findings as I am not going onto a steep pitched roof 3 stores high to inspect damage. Through the years of owning the house, I have had several roofing company do some inspections/estimates/maintenance/repair work on my roof, but this is the first time anyone took time to alert me to a potential unrelated roofing problem which is not visible unless you are on the roof. HB alerted me to a 3” wide pipe full of water. To me it appeared to be a plumbing stack pipe, but later it was determined that it was a dead end pipe that went from the roof down 3 stores to the basement. The builder left the pipe opening exposed to rain and for 18+ years collecting rain water, and now it was overflowing at the top of the pipe on the roof. Just 1 day later after HB showed me the roof problems and the vent pipe full of water; another roofing company came and gave me an estimate for repair work. This company said nothing about the overflowing vent pipe or missing shingles HB had found. I even gave them a change to fess up and asked the about the condition of my vent pipes. I was told all was well on the roof, and that all I needed to stop leaks some caulking. I am so thankfully, HB took time to alert me to an unrelated problem. The HB carefully and thoughtfully performed the work. I am happy with the results and believe others can benefit from the honesty and hard work from those employed by Ribba Construction."

"Their work was excellent and timely. They took the time to explain the roofing process clearly to a complete novice. The same can be said for each time I hired Home Matters over the past few years and I will definitely hire them again in future."

"These guys are the best! They seriously care about their customers and really strive to make sure they deliver a great product. They were on time, quick, and clean. My new roof looks fantastic, and we are really glad we went with this local company. Buying a roof is not a "fun" expense, but I really feel like we got our money's worth: a quality new roof in 1 day, and then new trim capping the next day. They even installed new bathroom exhaust vents and HVAC exhausts. Our house looks brand new. You might get a cheaper rate elsewhere, but these guys do not skimp on quality of product, 50-year warranty, or craftsmanship. They even come back to inspect and follow up to make sure we are completely happy with the services provided! Talk about great customer service! The whole experience was so easy. The salesman/inspector was not pushy, and provided a very reasonable quote for what we needed. They also replaced all our rotted wood in the roof/trim."

"Their consultant was on time and very knowledgeable. I ultimately decided to move forward with a new Roof and replacement windows. My Roof was done roughly 2 weeks later and my windows were just completed. I am very pleased and look forward to the energy savings this winter. The architectural shingles really look good and have gotten me a lot of compliments from my neighbors."

"Tom, Steve and the whole team at Certified were terrific. We needed to replace our roof before installing a solar array, and they got the job done in record time without skimping on quality or professionalism. The new roof looks great and I would definitely recommend them to anyone in the DMV."

"Tomas M from JW did a great job. Needed replacement for part of the frame of front door. He did a fantastic job in matching the replacement panel to the rest of door. He also painted the entire frame and replaced some additional wood that we damaged at top of frame and caulked it all. Also had a basement door frame sanded and repainted. He was very good at keeping me informed of the process."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Lanham, MD

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.
