"Sequoia Roofing did an excellent job from start to finish. Once again it is proven to me "you get what you pay for". I got multiple estimates. Sequoia was not the least expensive. Mike Rochholz answered all my questions before, during and after. Communication was clear. Helped me choose the replacement tile. I knew what was going to be done and when I was on their work calendar six weeks ahead. Started on Monday and finished on Friday. Attention to details and professionalism of crew earn high praise, too."

"I dealt with Leon De Anda for my roof work. Leon was honest and professional and very informative about what could be done with my roof. He offered me a few options and also asked me if there were anything specific I wanted done. I basically described what I wanted and he curtailed his bid to what I was looking for at the best price. I liked the fact that he was honest and straight forward without playing any games or try and screw me over. In the end, I decided to get a whole new roof, down to even getting all new plywood. The men who came to work on the roof were competent and professional. They went to great lengths to only bother me when it was necessary. Everyday they made a mess but at the end of the day they would always clean it up. I thought they were very professional. Leon was not at my house everyday but he was always just a phone call away. He was very accessible. Once the work was completed, Leon and myself walked around the property and inspected the work. He made sure that I was completed satisfied before everything was finalized. Protecta Roofing made a big impression on me based on the way they started and completed this job. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get some roof work done or even some general contracting work done."

"Extremely well. The crew was prompt, early as a matter of fact, courteous, professional, and took the time to answer any question or concern I had. They cleaned up every day and left the area as neat as when they arrived. These guys worked hard every day and the finished product reflects a pride in their workmanship. They took no shortcuts, believe me."

"Better than perfect! If you want a perfectly installed new roof, at a reasonable rate, Cal Roof, Inc. is your best option. Doug Barry, the company's owner, is a terrific person and very honest. You could go elsewhere, but why would you? I make this review as someone who is a perfectionist himself, and rarely writes good reviews for anyone."

"Spencer and his crew finished the entire project in 2 days. 2,565 sq ft house in 2 days. 1 day they took off the old shingles and the second day they came and installed the new one. Spencer was very easy to work with, he provided samples, and we chose the color we liked. I recommend him and the team to anyone looking to get a new roof."

"We had Brian Ray come out to give us an estimate on replacing our roof, but after talking with him and getting educated on the condition of our roof. Then getting educated on the way a roof should be installed. We decided that this was the company we wanted to do business with. Also know the staff doing the work will have been trained and get retained each year makes me feel they will do the right thing for the customers. Brian was not pushy but instead explained everything in details that we could understand. Looking forward to the day they install the new roof."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in National City, 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.
