"This is the third time we hired Gary and his company, High Tech Roofing. Great job every time! Many roofers do half jobs or messy work. Gary’s crew is neat and cleans up all the old shingles and nails. Uses top quality shingles and ice shields below. We had a new skylight out in as well as a new roof. All good!"

"Absolute integrity, professional and knowledgeable. Answered all questions, promptly calls back any phone inquiries. Not even a nail or screw found on grounds after they cleaned up debris. Roof installed in one day. Prior to my new roof being installed I had leaks caused by my solar panels. Corey was my initial contact; Michael was the job-site supervisor. They really listened while I expressed my concerns about the solar company ( which caused the leaks in my roof initially) again not sealing my roof adequately. Corey, who was aware of this through his initial inspection and showed us the pictures he took which detail this, offered and did, indeed, return after the solar panels were reinstalled on the new roof. Trust this company; when their job is over they are still willing to be available for whatever is needed."

"It went wonderfully. Eddy's crew worked very hard with very minimal issues and the mix up with wood paneling, Eddy immediately took full responsibility for and rectified the issue that day. There was also a time when we mistakenly told his crew to paint a certain wall the wrong color and when we realized it, they again fixed it immediately. After we had our floors done by another contractor, Eddy's guys came back and finished the shoe molding for us. Also, when we needed an electrician, Eddy recommended one who was also wonderful. We would absolutely use them again."

"Lev, his crew, and Natia in the office are all superb. We contacted Lev for a quote to replace the roof on our 135 year old three story Victorian home. He responded promptly, came over to access the job, and knew immediately what needed to be done. He left us with confidence in his knowledge of what needed to be done for a quality and thorough job. Shortly afterwards we received a price with all details of what was included in the job. It was a very fair price given the scope of the work and we contracted with him. We also contracted with him to replace all the gutters and leaders on the house. Lev and his crew began work on the promised date. They tore off the two existing layers of asphalt shingles, the original cedar shake shingles under the asphalt, and removed the original Yankee gutters (wooden). They then sheathed, papered, and shingled the roof, including a ridge vent. This old house has many gables, a mansard area, and a main hip area, so it’s a complicated roof. There is also an existing skylight and they handled all of these features with ease and expertise. Lev was on site with his crew, always working alongside them or checking on the work being done. He is not just a contractor, he’s a skilled and talented man who pays great attention to all detail. There was a ten foot piece of aluminum soffit missing at one eave and he installed new soffit there. He also took care of any areas of the existing aluminum siding that needed attention. Not only was he interested in giving us a dry home, he also wanted it to look good (hence the extra attention to the siding). He takes great pride in his work and that’s a huge plus for the homeowner, needless to say. He goes above and beyond. He (and Natia in the office) keep you informed throughout the entire process and promptly respond to any questions or requests. His crew is respectful and skilled, and they never forget that the work site isn’t just a job site, rather it’s a home/where people live. When the gutter man was here, Lev was back on site making sure everything was up to snuff and that we were pleased. He and his crew did a top-notch job cleaning up the yard and driveway, including having a crew sweep and vacuum the attic space. I should mention that we are two-zoned HVAC and he made sure the furnace/air handler in the attic –and the natural gas and refrigerant lines- were covered and protected before work began. We couldn’t be happier with Lev. He’s honest, hardworking, intelligent, and dedicated to the customer’s satisfaction. We feel like we hit the jackpot in finding him to do this job. There aren’t many out there like him. We give him the highest recommendation. Just the very best!"

"Munz Roofing was excellent from start to finish! They were communicative throughout the whole process and always came when they said they would. The crew worked extremely hard (even in the oppressive heat), did a fantastic job, and left everything looking great. Our salesperson, Andrew was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole process easy. Eric, our project manager, was fantastic-professional, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly. On top of that, the price was very fair. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend Munz Roofing!"

"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.
