"I would highly recommend Manny and his team to anyone in need of roofing services!! Manny was great at communicating about the project and making suggestions. The team arrived on time, worked efficiently and left everything clean. The quality of their work was excellent! Another family member had used Manny in the past and was also extremely happy with their new roof!"

"We were recommended to go with Home Genius by our neighbor who was very happy with his roof installation from a few years back. What drew me to your company was the hospitality of the sales rep and his wonderful presentation. I believe we made the right decision, as our roof, unlike before, is a complete Owen's Corning system covered by a tremendous warranty. we no longer have to worry about leaks or issues because of our new beautiful roof and gutters. They even remove and reinstall your solar panels for you. Great company all around. friendly and helpful staff"

"First off and foremost, the actual installers were PHENOMENAL; they were extremely professional, did an outstanding job, and clearly communicated everything that was going on.  Even the sales agent that first came to the house to give an estimate was punctual, professional, and did not force anything in the sale.  The prices were actually very competitive and they were able to fit us in earlier than another company, so because it could be done earlier and cheaper we went with this company.
That is about where the quality of this company ended.  DO NOT USE THEM.  Since my experience I have discussed with other people who have had fences installed by the same company and they shared a lot of my pain (wish I knew this ahead of time).  On to my experience:
I was told, with over two weeks advanced notice, that my house would be the first stop on the installers route that day and I was told to expect the installers at 10:00 AM.  So, I took off of work, woke up early, and eagerly expected the installers.  By 11:30, when no installers had shown up yet and no call from the company had occurred, I decided to contact the company and ask what was going on.  After being put on hold and transferred to a "manager" I was told that the installers were having car trouble and would be there within the next 15-20 minutes.  At 12:15, 45 minutes later and now a solid 25 minutes past the time I was told to now expect them, I called the office yet again and was transferred to another "manager".  This guy was supposedly a son of the owner or son-in-law to the owner of the company.  He was pleasant on the phone but informed me that my install appointment was NOT at 10:00 AM but instead it was 1:00 PM.... wait what? So why was I lied to about the car trouble and told I was scheduled for 10:00 AM???  He had no answer for that but told me they should be there shortly and to not worry, but if they don't show up to call back and ask for him personally.  Well, at 1:45 PM when still no one was at my house I called back and mysteriously this second manager was gone for the day.  So I spoke to now a third "manager" who again assured me that the installers should be there any moment as they just left the last job.  Finally at 2:05 PM the installers showed up at my house and when they arrived they informed me that I was in fact scheduled for 10:00 AM but that they were called on their way over and told to go to my house late.  Also, I was told that they did not in fact have any sort of car trouble and that they did not have all of the installation materials since they used some up at the last job (they would get back up supplies delivered later).  The installers apologized many times for the fact that they were so "late" and felt awful even though none of this was their fault.  
The installers started and were off to a great start, however upon working on the fence I became completely infuriated about the fact that I had taken off of work and lost out on that paycheck along with not being able to accomplish anything considering I sat on my hands for over 4 hours.  So, I called the office and demanded to speak to a manager (got manager 3 again).  When I spoke with him and explained that I was extremely unsatisfied and furious that I was lied to throughout the day multiple times he was very unresponsive.  (I understand things happen, things change, but DON'T LIE ABOUT IT).  So I demanded a discount (or the $200 fee for the gate to be installed to be waived) and got absolutely no compromise from the manager.  When I threatened to withhold payment, the manager then hung up the phone called the installers and informed them to stop working.  After 20 minutes of no noise, I went out and provided the installers with some Gatorades and asked what was going on.  They reluctantly told me they were told to stop working because I was not going to pay.  Even though my yard was ripped up and they were 2/3rds done with the job they were told to not finish and to leave.  I was in full on rage mode at this point, called back and said fine put your workers back to work please I will pay the balance I just want this done.  I heard a "heh, fine" and he hung up.  Upon checking on the installers they were back to work.  When they finished the job was very well done and I am very happy with the installers and the quality of their work but overall the company is run by a bunch of stone cold liars that I will NEVER recommend to anyone ever again.  H*** I actually started this Angie's List account just to leave this feedback.

"I am very impressed with ANB Constructions. They did a complete rip off and replacement of my old roof, installed new gutters, and completely rebuilt and replaced my garage roof. Everything was done on time, and at a very reasonable price. Clean up after they were finished was perfect. I would recommend them to anyone."

"We had a leaky skylight over the bed and Tom came out that same day and fixed it! He recommended that we need to replace it since it is pretty old. The day of installation they were very punctual and did a great job! Cleaned up everything after. We will definitely use them again for our other skylights!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Middlesex, NJ

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.
