"They were subcontracting from another company. Menno was great. They did a good job. They did excellent work. They were pleasant to work with. They continued to work. They didn’t take time off and go sit around or anything like that. They did the job. They did it efficiently and did it well. We were pleased with their work. With regard to price, he was subcontracted, so the price was through the other company that was subcontracting."

"It was a very good experience overall. We really appreciated their expertise in window installation. The quality of the windows was premium and will last for years to come. The owner was friendly and did a great job explaining the different window products and helped us choose windows that met our needs. We also used Key Exteriors to replace our roof and they got the job done quickly and efficiently. We're thrilled with the results!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Laotto, IN

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.
