"I am very pleased with the quality of the materials and the work that was done. Power is more expensive than your average run of the mill contractor, but the quality that you get out of it is definitely worth the extra you pay and the transferable lifetime warranty is a great value add if you ever decide to sell your house. That being said, I will not be using Power again, nor will I be likely to recommend them to anyone due to their ridiculous high pressure sales practices. For anyone considering using Power, let me go ahead and prepare you for what to expect with your initial inspection/estimate. The salesman we had come over spent literally 5 hours at our house before he left. He was here from 7:00 PM until close to midnight. We literally cooked and ate dinner while he was here talking to us about the entire history of the company and teaching us, step-by-step, how a roof is built. Fortunately, my wife and I are fairly patient people and learning about all of the components that go into a roof was interesting, but 5 hours was a little overkill and we just weren't prepared for it. Maybe if we had known what to expect beforehand, it wouldn't have been so bad. The first quote we were given was outrageously expensive. They wanted close to $45,000 to replace our 3,000 sq ft roof and gutters. I told the guy there was no way we could afford that and then he said that he could offer us a special deal of $33,000 but we had to decide right then and there if we wanted to do it. We couldn't have the night, or even 24-hours, to think about it. I again told him that it was simply too much and then he knocked the price down to $28,000 if we agreed to do a review for them, but again, we had to say "Yes" right then and there. The reason they require a "Yes" immediately, according to them, is because of efficiency. They compared themselves to UPS drivers who used to waste time trying to deliver packages over and over again to the same houses. They said that by us saying "Yes" right away, it saves them the hassle of having to send someone back out to the house to sign papers. I'm sorry, but in this day and age when there are plenty of ways to digitally sign papers, that excuse doesn't fly. This is just high pressure sales 101. That's all it is and I'm someone that does not appreciate being put in those scenarios. It is ridiculous to expect any average person to make a $30,000 financial decision in a matter of minutes. There's no reason why they shouldn't give people 24-48 hours to look over their finances, maybe get a 2nd opinion, etc. Of course, you do have the ability to do that, but you lose the "better" pricing if you do and have to pay the super premium price. Despite the fact that I am happy with the quality of the work, I will not be using them again because of this. Unless, of course, they change their policy. Additionally, the company said that when they were done we wouldn't even know they were there, but I definitely knew because I had to move my patio furniture off of my lawn and back onto the patio, along with my grill and smoker. They damaged an outdoor thermometer, luckily it was just a cheap one, so I'm not too bent out of shape over it. I also had to pick up nails that were left in my yard and pick up pieces of trash and plastic left behind and they damaged some of our lilies in our flower bed that we had just planted this year, which I specifically mentioned to the project manager to make sure they took care not to damage the flowers. It wasn't a complete disaster, but it definitely didn't live up to the promise that was made to me. Which, if I'm paying a premium price, I expect little promises like this to be kept. Again, I think they do fantastic work. They were on time. They finished on time. The quality of their work is great and I think there is good value despite the premium price tag, but the high pressure sales technique that we had to endure really just left a sour taste in my mouth. Hopefully the value of the warranty will really make itself known if/when we either sell the house or need to use it and then maybe that will wash the sour taste out."

"The inspection, and estimate was done in a very professional manner, which is why we selected them. The replacement had to be done on a Sunday. A large crew showed up and the work proceeded at an impressive pace. 
Post replacement, the lawn was clean. The new roof seems to be working well. 
I was very pleased with their service. "

"The process was very Professional. Greg came out and evaluated my old shingles roof and gave me a price to install a new metal roof. He was very informative concerning my change over from a shingles roof to a metal roof. Greg explained the step by step installation process and the warranty that was included. After an agreement was confirmed, I was always notified with everything from the material drop off date and time to the actual installation date and any delays.. Will definitely use Southern Signature Solutions in the future for other Home Projects!! Wonderful Customer Service! Thank You Mr. Greg Carter And Crew!! MY NEW ROOF LOOKS GREAT!!"

"Floors Sag or Shake was one of three estimates we got to reinforce the sagging floors in four rooms of our older home. We went with them based on the work they proposed and their positive online reviews, and we are completely satisfied with their work. They worked over three days to pour concrete footings, jack up the floors as best as possible, and then add permanent supports. They also removed an old vapor barrier and installed a new one. Each day, they arrived early and worked through the day. They communicated well and were courteous and professional. Prior to their work, our floors were not even close to level. More importantly, when walking on them, we could feel them "giving" under our weight. Now, our floors feel solid and look level throughout the house. While this type of work isn't as "fun" as other renovations, the cost of this repair is worth the peace of mind. Every time we walk across our floors, we are reminded of our investment. We also feel good about the transferable warranty—should we ever sell our home, a prospective home owner will have a good indicator that we invested in keeping this home safe and stable. Thanks, Floors Sag or Shake!"

"Your service provider came out and did not repair the leak and did not focus specifically on that issue or address the specific issue that I have notated in the work that needed to be done, but proceeded to try and sell me or replace the entire roof on my house and I am assuming that it is because the job that I wanted done was not profitable. The issue that concerns me the most is over the past week or more, I had a second inspection done on my roof and was told that there is not an issue with my current roof and it does not need to be replaced so I have moved on to using another person to fix the specific leak that I wanted repaired. The $199 that I spent was not a wise expenditure on my part and was my mistake. I would like for you to contact this provider and tell them that there is no need to contact me any further as I have decided to use another provider to fix the issue with my porch and there is no further conversation or discussion needed. Sincerely, Michael Denson"

"Wildlife Evictors got whatever was in my attic out! They also sealed my entire house to keep unwanted guests out. They were very friendly and professional. I would definitely hire again, BUT hopefully I'll never have to!"

"I had originally called to get a price on replacing the vent boots on a foreclosed home i was trying to purchase.  Marcus met me there and although he was running slightly late he did call and let me know.  No big deal to me.  If your service provider isn't busy there may be a reason in my mind!  Anyway,  He quickly climbed up on the roof and hit me with some devastating news that I needed a complete new roof.  This destroyed me.  Trying to protect my best interest I asked for a quick quote on a replacement cost.  He honored my request although he repeatedly informed me that he hated to do a rough guesstimate but understood my position.  i had to have some kind of idea to go back to the seller with $$ wise and it had to be about an hour from when we met.
 Fast forward to the seller rejecting my offer but then we agreed on a lower price and I owned the home.  I then decided to get my usual 2 more estimates on the repairs to the roof vents.  I have heard repeatedly how roofers are some of the most dishonest folks in the business. Both of the other companies told me that I needed a new roof as well so I began getting prices.
Marcus then got down to business and was able to give me a detailed price quote that wound up being lower than the other 2.  He also was able to offer interest free financing for a year with no payments which certainly helped with the cash flow.  His
advice as to what color was very helpful.  I really wanted a wood color and he informed me that it would look phenomenal for about 5 years then due to the large amount of hardwoods on my lot they would begin staining it.  This sad but true fact was confirmed.  
Only problem was now getting it installed.  He was willing to work Thanksgiving week if necessary.  He knew I was trying to celebrate Christmas in the house and was more than willing to do his part.  Unfortunately Mother Nature was very uncooperative with us.The only delay in getting it installed as promised was waiting for a few days break in the weather.  This is certainly understandable.  Once the break came they showed up with a large crew and got right to it.  They protected my landscaping and brand new HVAC compressors.  They worked well into dusk and were very fast and efficient.  To date I have found I think 3 nails leftover that they missed.  
I read the other reviews on here and found Marcus easy to get a hold of and courteous and friendly as well as trustworthy and honest.  By the time it was all said and done I felt like i had purchased a roof from a friend.  To those looking at the price paid and saying WOW that's high!  My roof is very large with a steep pitch and lots of dormer windows.  2 stories in the front and 3 in the back.  Lots of gutters as well. He did offer me the option of going over the old roof and took the time to explain the pros and cons of that.  
He is rated as a Master Elite roofer by GAF.  http://www.gaf.com/Roofing/Residential/Contractors/Profile/ME16958

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Palmetto, GA

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.
