"The crew was very professional and did the work quickly. Nolan did a great job explaining the process to us and made us feel very comfortable in navigating the roof replacement. We had a lot of fun with him and the roof was installed quickly and in a timely fashion."

"Simply put, Bob (the owner) and his crew were awesome in every measurable way. They score a 100 points on a 10-point scale as far as we are concerned. To begin with, Bob responded to my voice-message within an hour or so...he visited the project location the next day, and provided his written quote within 2 business days. Bob also maintained communication during the period from my initial call to the morning that the work began. Based on DELL'AQUILA PLASTERING's current workload at the time, a tentative date less than 2 weeks out was agreed upon, subject to us completing other work (wiring, plumbing, etc). Bob maintained excellent communication, and called to confirm the start date and arrival time. Bob and his team arrived at 8:30am as promised. Once the drop-cloths were installed from the entrance to the bathroom by the workers, there was a continuous flow as the work moved right along. The project was completed on time and under the budgeted estimate (WOW!). Cleanup was exceptional, as there was nothing that would indicate that a sheet-rock and plaster project had just been completed. Combine all that I have said above, with the friendliness and professionalism of Bob and his Team, and the timeliness and quality of the work completed, and you have a FIVE-STAR COMPANY ready to complete your project!"

"This was a challenging project from a sequencing standpoint and they handled their scheduling well, giving us a ballpark date, then a date to start work and then they followed through. The painters followed the carpentry and brick cleaning scopes and were ready to start in August.  We had a very definitive schedule we had to keep and they had to balance with the other contractor working both before and after them. The brick cleaning created efflorescence on the bricks and stains on the stonework. (UCS had completed this just last year, and although it previously looked great and held up very well, the lintels were now streaked pink and red.)
UCS was able to come out and complete the painting in October, after the efflorescence on the bricks cleared.  (We did not want them to paint too early if we had to get it cleaned again.)  We were unable to remove the stain from the stone ourselves, so we had Ultimate Custom Painting paint these.   This was an agreed upon change order, as it was not anticipated or included in the original scope of work and they also completed this within our needed time frame (the next day!).
As the base scope, they painted the door frame, transom trim, trim on  windows, gutter, and newly exposed or created dormer woodwork, a fairly complex design with several scallops, flutes, and trimmed, inset boxes, using 3 colors. They prepped the 120-year old wood and caulked the final painted surfaces as well.  They also performed repairs to the wood work that was exposed from August to October while we tried to contact the other contractor - there was a hole in the dormer and they installed the missing scallop part that had fallen into the gutter! They did not charge us for these repairs beyond the scope.
 It turned out beautifully.  It works very well with the work they completed last summer (paneled door, railing, lintels.)

"Our old house on the Northside of Pittsburgh was in need of an exterior facelift and a new front porch to replace the one that had collapsed. I met with Dave LaBovick of Exceptional Exteriors and we agreed upon a price, which my wife and I found quite reasonable. The work on the vinyl siding began about a week later and took only a half a day to wrap up. The job was done to our complete satisfaction, The before and after is like night and day. Another crew arrived a few days later to do the porch and sidewalk. They began work on a Thursday afternoon and were finished 24 hours later. Once again, we are very happy with the result. In both cases, they removed all debris and left-over building materials associated with the job. We are not only completely satisfied with the work that Exceptional Exteriors did for us, we are looking forward to hiring them again for our next home project."

"We used The Construction Company to renovate the main living space in our home. They removed a load-bearing wall between our office and family room, replaced the flooring, added a new window and constructed built-in storage tailored to the space. They did all of the painting, trim and electrical work (adding recessed lighting and even mounting our TV/components). John was able to provide suggestions we hadn't thought of to use the space more efficiently, such as reducing an opening to the room, adding a barn door that would maximize the available space for furniture, and constructing a built-in desk area in an otherwise awkward space that was created by our powder room. We couldn't be happier with the result! Not only did the end product exceed our expectations, but John was extremely professional. Our initial estimate was submitted quickly, the contract was detailed, and they began work on our project in a timely manner. Once work commenced, there were no breaks in the project until it was complete. The only time the cost exceeded the estimate was when we wanted to add to the scope. They were reliable and respectful of our house, taking steps to contain the mess to the extent possible. John always remained flexible and collaborative as the project progressed. Beyond being multi-talented, they were just good, pleasant, trustworthy people, which is important when you're embarking on a project that will take some time to complete. We will absolutely use The Construction Company again, and would recommend them to anyone!"

"Marvin and his team (I met 3 crews of about 15-20 very hardworking guys and a couple of women!) who did a great job. First, the roofing guys worked to remove the old shingles (and they were constantly cleaning up as they progressed as this created a full dumpster of spent material), did any necessary roof surface repair as they went, and then put on the new singles in 2-3 days on a large multi-sectional roof. Meanwhile, the carpenters were preparing and finishing any necessary trim/soffit/dormer/etc. repair work, even coming on Saturday to finish their work. Then, within 3 hours the next week, the gutter guys had cut the new gutters on-site and had them installed. Amazing coordination between the crews, project management and office staff. I also had the pleasure to meet two of the sales staff at the front end, John and Justin, who came out to check on the jobs, as well as Marvin who looked at the roof carefully at the outset, and was in constant contact or on-site with his teams. I have observed 3 roofs put on my home and several other houses in the past year, and Marvesta was the most impressive company I observed and had the pleasure to work with. If I didn't have a brick house, I'd have them back to do siding too!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Latrobe, PA

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.
