"Sammy and his team were professional, clean and efficient. Turned up on time, worked quickly, and produced a great result. I had a chimney rebuild and the team were able to salvage and reuse the old bricks. The chimney looks great. The price was competitive. They even paved a crack in my front steps with the leftover cement."

" My roofing project went great from beginning to end with A1 Home Improvement. I had 3 other companies come give me estimates. A1 sales rep Cody stood out from the group. Cody was punctual, knowledgeable, straight forward with me without any pressuring sales tricks. Cody talked about and treated my home like it was his own and was a wealth of knowledge for other projects I’d like to get done. On the day of my project Markeese and his team did excellent work. They made sure my roof looked great! Markeese kept me informed on the job throughout the entire day and answered all my questions I may have had. Now I did have concerns about some trim that didn’t look entirely right but Markeese and Corine from the office were quick to address my concerns. Within a few days Lenny and Carlos were back to make the trim on my house look perfect. At the end of my project Tawana made finishing paper work, payment, and warranty information as easy as possible. I can’t thank the team at A1 enough !"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Prospect, CT

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.
