"Great..thought I needed a new roof, but an inspection by Levs, said that a repair was all that was necessary at this time. I will use them when that replacement is needed for sure."

"Nick was great and stayed in constant communication. They were able to get the crew out within 2 weeks to do the roof replacement before we moved into our new home. The gutters were complete within 2 weeks after. Great work by the crew."

"On Day 1 after tearing off 70% of the roof, clouds started to move in, the crew quickly made a haphazard attempt to cover the exposed roof. After doing so, I spoke to the crew leader to assess their plan. They were moving on to another job. I asked why they couldn't wait for 10 minutes for the shower to subside and showed them a radar forecast that called for no rain in the area until 10 PM to no avail. They left the premises a mess. Loose shingles on the roof, nailed scattered everywhere and the tarp on the roof was flapping in the wind and those loose shingles were flying in the wind. I called the American Quality to inform them of the situation. A couple of hours later I called again to inquire about the status. They finally sent the original crew back at approximately 5 PM. They quickly cleaned up. I asked them to secure the tarp on the roof then they left. Later that night, the roof was leaking into the house. Although American Quality sent someone to assess and rectify the situation, it was too little too late. I personally had to place a tarp in the attic to limit the potential damage. After the roof replacement was completed, I had to call in again because of their lack of attention to the little details."

"I went to Angi trying to find a reputable company to change my siding, roof, and gutters. I trusted my gut to go with Home Genius because of their reviews not only on Angi but on google as well. I reached out to Home Genius and they were extremely quick to respond which was a great sign to me. Breanna was the one to respond ON HER HONEYMOON. I got a kick out of that ð . At the time of the sale, I was blown away by what Tre had presented to me. For each project, there was an incredible amount of knowledge thrown my way from both him, before I signed the dotted line, and Taylor the project manager when it came time to execute. Tre wasnâ t pushy or high pressure like a lot of other companies. When it came time to install the roof,siding, and gutters the crews did a most excellent job from start to finish and the clean up was unbelievable. Not a nail, not a piece of anything left behind. Each crew specialized in what they were there to install. Taylor would call me and visit every so often to check in and update me on progress with all of my projects. As Iâ m writing this, I canâ t help but thank everyone involved in making this outcome possible. Just look at my house! Itâ s BEAUTIFUL."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in New Brunswick, 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.
