"Everyone from the salesperson Ramona to office staff and the guys working on the roof were very accommodating and friendly. I had quotes from other companies that were less money. We felt that the service and warranty from Middle Creek Roofing was far superior to the other companies. They had our roof done in one day! Great Job to all involved!!!"

"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!"

"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"

"This was the second company I'd called off of Angie's List for a simple job of securing a ridge vent that had blown partly off of our roof. The first company was going to charge $99 just to come out and take a look, plus parts and labor thereafter. Pete from Premier Siding & Roofing came out to look with no fee for the estimate, arrived promptly within the half-hour window they'd given me on the phone, and had the problem diagnosed (with photos) and fixed (nailing down and caulking) within an hour or hour and a half, tops. After a lot of anxiety about how much it would cost and how long it might take me to get estimates from various people, this was a great relief. We could probably have scheduled another day with him or gone elsewhere for a full replacement of the ridge vent, but that's not what we needed right now, and I was very pleased to have such a simple and cost-effective solution to a problem that could have gotten serious. I won't be afraid to call next time."

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.
