"This roofing job started off bad and continued to the finish. I wanted a professional with a few requirements. Be careful of original structure as it is prefabbed. The workers punched twelve holes in sheeting removing old roof material, requiring sheeting overlay. I requested that roofing nails not protrude through roof in patio area. They were protruding through the entire area. They left refuge sitting on the side of the driveway until I asked to have it removed. The one-week job turned into a two-month Odessey. The job was obviously a side job, piece-mealed together with little supervision little supervision. I am not confident the roof will not fail. prematurely fail. "

We have been family owned for over 30 years. We’re a 3rd generation company not a corporate company we’re a family buisness that take pride in quality over quantity. We treat our customers like family to ensure a lasting relationship. Don’t hesitate to reach out and see what we can do for each other. We have installed thousands of roofs and there’s no job we can’t handle. We’re licensed insured and bonded. Backed by BBB and Angie’s certified. Thanks for your time.

"We recently hired Gentry Construction for a brand new roof and we are extremely pleased with the result. Dana, the owner, is a true professional who ensures his team delivers quality work. Their punctuality was impeccable, with the crew starting precisely at 7 AM every day without fail. The installation itself was expertly done. My only very slight critique is that the cleanup afterward could have been a bit more meticulous to meet my personal standard. However, this was a minor issue and does not detract from the overall superb service and craftsmanship. I highly recommend them."

"The roof came out looking beautiful and we had a good rain two days later with no problems, so I'm gonna say it was done right! There were a couple of problems in the process that Salvador quickly resolved. This is a hard working crew, with a level headed boss who is fair and understanding. I hope I never need another roof, but if I do, I'll call Waterproof Roofing!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Merced, CA

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.
