"They replaced our 2700 sq ft roof in 1 day! They did a great job overall, an extremely small piece of drywall needed to be replaced from a misstep, but not at all due to poor workmanship. They contacted me immediately to schedule their carpenter to fix the issue, however I'm completing myself due to needing to rennovate that spare room, but they were ready to fix immediately. Price was on par with other estimates I received, but the reason we decided to hire Middle Creek Roofing was because they explained the materials that were going to be utilized and because of their 50yr warranty."

"The work was excellent involving replacing existing and installing new gutters. Also, they performed replacing 6-inch aluminum trim and the water damaged backer boarding and again the work was skilled and performed to the exact specifications that their sales representee described during their sales meeting! The are not the cheapest or most expensive of all the proposals i received but the 10-year guarantee, just showing up when they said they would and the quality of all their work, has convinced me that when I continue to my next home improvement project, they will be the first company I call!"

"My ceilings starting leaking during some heavy rainstorms in my area. After some frantic phone calls to roofing companies, Roofx responded right away and even sent someone out on a Saturday to look at my roof. There was a hole in my roof and due to it being old slate tile, it couldn't be repaired. The Roofx team was amazing, especially Tiffany, Ron, and Mark. It took about two weeks to schedule them to come out to replace my roof, due to financing and having to wait for a break in the weather. But my new roof was done in one day and they did an amazing job."

"Amos contacted me the next morning (I entered on Sunday afternoon) and was able to easily quote me for the replacement of my roof. In addition due to a major leak, he was able to schedule me for installation the same week. (All other roofing companies were scheduling me 8+ weeks out) . The crew during the installation arrived on time as agreed with Amos. They maintained a clean work space and provided updates through out the project. I am extremely happy with the roof appearance (we went with the GAF Timeberline HD singles) and our leak is repaired. I would hire this team in a heartbeat for future needs"

"So here is how it goes... hail damage everywhere around me. I called another company to get it looked at and they let me know I had damage... I contacted my insurance company and they came out and DENIED me a claim... Insurance company told me I could have an adjuster come out a second time. but it might not be worth it because they would not really probably see anything different. Knowing the houses on both sides of me had damage and I could see visible damage on my roof since I had part of a shingle in by front flower bed, I knew my house had suffered hail damage. In my neighborhood, I had driven by some of the work of PREMIER SIDING AND ROOFING had done, so I gave them a call. Pete Welsh came out and inspected my house and shed and told me there was a lot of damage to both structures. After he pointed out the damage to me and let me know he would come out and take pictures so I could submit to the insurance company. He advised me to call my insurance company and ask for a second inspection and that he would meet the inspector. I called the insurance company, submitted Pete’s photos and set-up the second inspection. Pete met with the insurance inspector. After the appointment the insurance inspector called me and let me know that Pete and he did find quite a bit of damage to both structures and he would be getting the report together. Premier Siding and Roofing complete the work and did an EXCELLENT job. I have multiple compliments on my house and since then I believe some other home owner in my neighborhood have followed the same path after seeing the remarkable job on my house. My house and shed look amazing!!!!!!! They clean-up after themselves and the foreman answered all of my questions, the professionalism and workmanship from start to finish was excellent. I would defiantly recommended Pete and Premier Siding and Roofing Team for replacement roof and siding……hail damage or no hail damage….. Thank you, Pete, for going to bat for me with my insurance company to make sure my claim didn’t get denied a second time. My house looks amazing and positively pops in the neighborhood…."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Reading, 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.
