"We had a partially flat roof that had a known issue with a leak where it met a vertical wall. On inspection we learned the old tar and gravel surface as a whole generally had issues requiring attention, as did the nonexistent or inadequate flashings. Looking for a roofer, we found Lifetime had the best price and high reviews. When Tony and Dylan came out to look at the situation and discuss fixes, we found that they listened well and came up with great solutions to the parts of our roof that needed repair and did not try to oversell us to fix the parts of our roof that were in good repair. Lifetime pulled the permit and got the team to work right away under the supervision of project manager Tony. He ably supervised the team and communicated progress daily in person or by email/text or both. He answered our questions and made sure the crew cleaned up, including ensuring they honored the cityâ s restriction on gas-powered blowers. All in all a job well done for a reasonable price. Thank you, Tony and team!"

"7. Our insurance company recently sent us a notice saying the roof needed to be replaced or they wouldn?t renew the policy. Max from Imperia Roofing came out to inspect it and confirmed the roof had definitely reached the end of its life. He explained the replacement process clearly and helped us move quickly so we could satisfy the insurance requirement. The crew did a great job and the new roof looks fantastic."

"My home is about 47 yrs old and we discovered that there were concrete tiles with no plywood underpayment. In December last year, due to big storm & strong wind, I needed a roof repair. I had multiple contractors bid the job. Total of 6 qualified contractors provide me a quote for roof fixing. Sagi (project manager) from Apollo came to my house on Christmas Eve, performed a very thorough inspection and sent the report and quote a few days later. I did a ton of researches, thinking of installing the solar panels in the future. I asked the contractors to send me a quote for a full roof replacement. They all took the time to explain the various roofing methods and materials, price is very competitive. Apollo quote was not the cheapest one, but I liked Apollo payment method: No down payment, payment was splitted into 4 payments. Services: Tile removed, Shingles installation, plywood installation, gutter guard & attic vents installation. The entire job took 3 days (I had around 2100 sq ft"

"I can't say enough about how fantastic Rhinos Roofing Company was to work with. Miguel and his team showed up everyday on time and cheerfully ready to work. They replaced our large A-framed roof and installed new gutters. Miguel really cares about making customers happy and went the extra mile to leave the property very clean. He's also, by the way, a very nice guy!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Richmond, CA

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.
