"Resnick Roofing was great. I went to their office, everyone was very friendly and helpful. I set an appointment for them to come see the section of my roof in need of repair so they could give me an estimate. I received a thank you a day or two later in the US mail for allowing them to visit my home. My project involved a special order skylight from Denmark because the flashing from my old skylight is no longer made. They completed the bulk of job in 1 day . They returned twice to match and install the interior trim on the skylight . After I received and paid bill , I received another thank you , this one came from the email of the president of the company. I could not be more pleased."

"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."

"We got our roof done by Empire Roofing and More and I am so pleased with the end result. Roman was easy to work with and incredibly reliable. He always showed up and/or called when he said he would, and was incredibly responsive all around. Our roof was completed in one day without incident and I am so impressed by how smoothly the process went. I highly recommend using Empire for your roof!"

"Extremely smoothly once the weather warmed to 45 degrees allowing for Ed to get onto the roof.  I would like to add that Ed was in the middle of another job but since our roof problem was weather-dependent, he interrupted this other job for a day to work an entire day on our roof.  I am very grateful for this. <br />"

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.
