"After insurance was finally in agreement everything went pretty smooth. We had a somewhat complicated type of labor installation required for our storm damaged sheathing on the roof(bitumen torch down for flat roof most of the cost for roof) and we also required shingles needing replaced on main part of home. They were persistent keeping to the insurance requirements and dealing with them for quotes. We noticed a few parts of flashing off centered bit Michael made sure were quick to get this fixed. Michael was great to work with handled everything very professionally. He even tried hard to help us get the trees still standing paid to us for lumber vs out of pocket as we got on tree removal mode with the close calls we had.Note to others with wood siding hunter green looks extremely great for shingle color!!!! Would definitely hire again!"

"Anthony’s Roofing and Construction is a phenomenal company that we highly recommend to anyone who needs repair to or replacement of their roof. Tony was responsive to our first contact, took pictures of his inspection and explained what we needed and why. He and his team were professional, quick, and focused on quality work. We love our new roof, which also addressed some problem areas from previous poor workmanship. Tony was present for the day and a half project - he and his team are committed to delivering quality work at a reasonable cost - they are excellent and put the customer first! Exceptional!"

"We chose J and W Roofing to help us with hail damage after our insurance company, State Farm, recommended them. The owner, Mr. Wells, came to see if we had hail damage and also gave us an estimate. He then walked us through the process of making our insurance claim. He also arranged to be at our home on a Saturday to meet with the insurance adjuster. The same week we received our check from the insurance company, they began on our roof and completed it all in one day (we have a 2,400 square foot house with architectural roof). They cleaned up that day, and then returned later in the week to do a follow-up clean-up (including magnets) and inspection. Our roof looks great! They appeared to be a Christian company (Mr. Wells led us in prayer prior to meeting with the adjuster) that was fair, fast, and reputable. We would definitely recommend them to others!

"They did a good job installing insulation, drywall, doorframes and doors, and molding. The floating and painting was professional as well. Because they were coming from Baton Rouge, the traffic ate into their time on the job. This caused the project to take longer than we’d hoped. Over all, an honest and professional business. I wish them the best."

"We reproduced the leakage. The water was entering the room from the roof between the exterior and interior wall. He surveyed the shingles in this area and put a roof sealant glue product around the shingles to reinforce and eliminate any gaps. After succeeding rains, we have NOT seen a recurrence of a leak."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Livingston, LA

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.
