"Elite roofing was very responsive, punctual, professional and went above and beyond when replacing our roof. They removed 2 layers of shingles and installed our new GAF architectural shingles. It looks great! They cleaned up after themselves and removed and reinstalled the gutter guards in the process too."

"Jesses Renovated our bathroom, after having a branch stabbing our roof and causing the whole ceiling to our bathroom to fall in. Jesse is quite vertical with his wide range of abilities to tackle any job needing to be done. My husband and I are quite pleased to of had him on the job. He repaired our roof and cleared out the fallen ceiling. Also replaced our ceiling, painted, replaced walls with water damage. We plan on having Jesses do other jobs around our home. We are very pleased with his work. Thank. you so much Jesse. Great job done. Glen & Judy Strickland"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Lexington, NC

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.
