"After going through a series of contractors who would delay or never call back, I was so happy to get connected to George's company. Great communication, spotted exactly what I needed, and delivered excellent work. George's team rerouted and replaced the gutters on my house and installed flashing on all the exposed wood. He caught quality issues from past roofers and fixed them. I'm really happy to finally have this project complete and this is the kind of high quality work you get from a small business."

"Excellent experience using Empire Roofing. The salesman Bob was knowledgeable and gracious in our initial meeting. The owner, Roman was great to work with, responsive and answered every question prior to work begining. He was here everyday to check on his crews progress. Roman personally addressed a chimney leak issue I was having and designed a fix to correct the issue which he installed. I can't thank Roman enough for his skill in addressing this additional issue. Roofing crew were on time, polite and neat. Cleaned up every afternoon prior to leaving and kept the outside of our house very neat during construction. The project was scheduled and as promised was completed in 3 days. Thanks to the entire Empire Roofing company for a job well done!"

"I have never been more pleased with a company than this one. We called about water damage to house and when edcarrived he looked at the roof and chimney. He was very honest and professional. Explained to us how the liners we were bad and how the moisture from the furnace was bleeding through the old brick and mortar. He also was able to replace and PERFECTLY match up siding on my house the is at least 20 years old. We also had some shutters that were in the basement that we had bought which I asked him to hang whe they were here. They did the work over two and a half days, cleaned up each day like the was never here. He took pictures of the work on the roof as he progressed and emailed them to me since my house is 3 full storeys high. If you are lookinf for and GREAT CONTRACTOR THEN PLEASE CALL THEM! I aslo have other properties that I will be using him on!! Thanks Ed you did a great job!!

"Steve and his team were excellent. The same guys, at the same time M-F. No surprises. Other than the needed banging, they were unobtrusive, pleasant, communicated when needed. My roof looks amazing and I couldn't recommend this company more highly. Getting a new roof is expensive. But having it done right the first time is priceless piece of mind."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
