"Joe Zuver and his crew did a fantastic job of replacing almost all of the windows, and all of the old worn out cedar shake shingles on my father-in-law's house.  This was a large job with over 30 squares of siding, and 6 large Anderson double-hung windows, replacement of  rotted out trim, a layer of foam insulation under the Certainteed Cedar Impressions siding, aluminum wrapping of all the fascia boards, and many other small details.  Joe came to the house several times to make sure his estimates were accurate prior to starting the job.  At no time did Joe ever put any pressure to buy anything or to use his company.  He was courteous, professional, and very accommodating to us and what we wanted to have done.   His crew worked many long days for almost two weeks from morning until almost dark and the job was completed as promised.  All leftover materials and trash were picked up every day, and placed in a dumpster which was hauled away after they finished.  All along the way,  Joe or one of his foremen kept all of us informed as to when the work would begin and what order each step would be completed.  The job was completed in two weeks and my father-in-law could not have been happier with the results.  Joe's final cost was many thousand dollars less than several other company's bids, but I am certain he did a much better job than what we would have gotten from these other companies.  I would have absolutely no hesitation to highly recommend his company to anyone.  If other home remodeling companies performed their work in  the same fashion as Joe Zuver, there would be fewer complaints about them.  Thanks Joe for a job well done."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Lawrence, KS

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.
