"I recently had Ranch Roofing install a new roof on my home and I am so grateful I chose them! I honestly cannot say enough good things about this company. From the very beginning, when I was searching for a roofing company, choosing a shingle color, and asking questions (since I know very little about roofing), the entire experience was wonderful. They were patient, knowledgeable, and always took the time to answer my questions and make sure I understood everything. The process was easy and stress-free. On installation day, the crew arrived, put up the tarps, and got right to work. The old roof came off, the new roof went on, and the results are absolutely beautiful! I chose Onyx Black, and I am so glad I did. It looks sharp! The new intake vents and ridge vents were also installed, and everything looks amazing. I had read about their reputation and how they stand behind their work, which gave me confidence in choosing them. They certainly lived up to that reputation. They are wonderf"

"On Top Roofing was great. Tim came to quote the work and asked what I wanted and offered excellent suggestions. He wanted to vent two bathroom fans out through the roof to reduce the moisture buildup in the attic. No other roofer even mentioned it. He also wanted to replace all drip edges and re-led the chimney. Several others wanted to reuse the exiting drip edges and led. Given all that his price was still very good. The job took two days. His crew was efficient and the roof looks great. There was a supervisor (Mike) on the job the entire time who ensured everything went well. They had one guy who did nothing but clean up constantly. So the yard and surrounding area was always clean. When they left they swept, rakes and picked up everything. Very professional and courteous team in the field and in the office (thanks Kelsey). All this and a 10 year workmanship warranty!!!"

"The entire job went very well, including the initial evaluation/proposal, scheduling, removal & installation. The price was very good.  Willard used a quality CertainTeed Pro architectural shingle on top, CertainTeed Diamond Deck roof wrap underneath, plus 9 foot wide wrap of this rubberized Winterguard ice and water shield.  And more than I ever knew went into flashing layers around the chimney.
The 9 foot wide rubberized Winterguard wrap was more coverage than some other bids and was more coverage than the minimum 3 feet that was needed for code compliance. This material seemed like a strong rubber membrane underlayer and runs 9Ft along the front, overlapping the fascia, to help eliminate water damage from ice dams etc.  So more than half my roof had this additional layer of protection.
All of my immediate neighbors remarked how quickly Byron's team carried out the job (about 5.5 hours) and how the yards, street, etc. was perfectly clean.
I think that the Willard Co. team seems to have really good hand-offs from Melanie in the office, Parker doing sales, Danny doing planning & scheduling, Byron running the job, and consulting with Danny and Sergio - another crew boss - if anything comes up. 
And then when my job needed new fascia-board, they determined that early-on, showed me the situation, gave me options, and they were able to coordinate addition materials delivery with the shingles, without causing delay.
I think that 'because they have their system down', they can adapt, operate efficiently, and price competitively - so that's good for the buyer.  It was a very solid effort - from the materials to the people - so I was really pleased about the Project and Process.

"These guys are exceptional. We called Farina Roofing to come take a look at our roof which was in need of replacement. Ricardo and Rafael came out promptly to inspect the roof and provided us with an estimate right away. Their professionalism was unparalleled to other companies we met with and we were even more impressed by the quality of their work. Their crew was excellent and we are so pleased with the outcome. We definitely recommend them for any roofing project and would hire them back in the future."

"I highly recommend Newton Roofing Residential. In 2014, they replaced the entire roof on my home with high quality materials, in a safe and timely manner, and at a very competitive price. In 2020, I decided to address another need - my aging second floor porch, which serves as a roof to the first floor porch below. It was becoming increasingly unsafe due to wood rot, with a soft floor and loose railings. Given my positive customer experience in 2014, calling Newton Roofing in 2020 was an easy decision - I did not get quotes from any other company. Rich came out and provided a detailed explanation of the materials and labor needed to replace the porch and to install new railings that best match the style of my home, and he followed up with a very competitive quote for the project. Gus and Julio were the on-site team who completed the project and their work was exceptional. Both men were incredibly skilled and meticulous, and thoroughly impressed me with their attention to detail at every point in the project. They worked on my home as if it were their own, which I greatly appreciated. I was so pleased with their knowledgeable and experienced craftsmanship. As you can see, I am a very satisfied Newton Roofing Residential customer!"

"I had FRS Roofers replace my rubber roof on my main roof and a back porch roof. I also had them realign the back porch roof to sit flush with the rest of the house. They also replace a lot of rotted wood, fascia and replaced the gutters. The team of roofers took three days to replace the roof and I couldn't be happier. They were professional, polite and cleaned up the work spaces and even left them better than they found it. During the three day period I has asked questions regarding the status and the site foreman got back to me right away. Everything was done as expected and I am very happy with my new roofs, I can now proceed to remodel the back porch."

"I contacted Kevin the morning after the storm, as soon as we were aware of the problem with our roof. He had a crew at our house that afternoon. They completed the repair efficiently and cleaned up thoroughly. We had some spare shingles left over from when the roof was put on originally, and they were able to save us money by using the materials we had. The cost of the repair was very reasonable, as well."

"Connell Roofing just completed a roof for me with damage from falling tree. Ben responded immediately when I reached out and got over to my place assessed damage tarped and weatherproofed roof. The damage was extensive involving chimney work, framing, roof, carpentry and gutters. Every step of the process was thoroughly explained by Ben and his team and the day of repair/install the crew worked together seamlessly and quality of the work was amazing and when they were done everything was cleaned up like they weren’t even there! Highly highly recommend Connell roofing!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Newton Lower Falls, MA

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.
