"The ShakeGuys replaced my cedar roof with DaVinchi Select Shake. The sales lead Chris P invested a lot of time taking me through options and answering questions. Tracey N was on top of communicating the scheduling of everything. Josh F the project manager did a great job overseeing the work, which went smoothly and on-time. The crew did a top notch professional job installing the new composite shake on a complex roof profile. Several neighbors commented on how professional they were, with minimal disruption.. They cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. Don't take short cuts when it comes to a new roof. Call the ShakeGuys and get it done right. They did an awesome job."

"We needed a roof replacement and were looking for a company we could trust. Berg Roofing did a great job on our roof from start to finish They delivered exactly what was promised at the price quoted, with no high-pressure sales tactics. We also appreciated that they provided a list of local homes with the shingle colors we were considering, which made the decision much easier. Working with Nick made the process simple and stress-free. He was responsive, kept us informed about scheduling, and clearly explained our options and pricing. On installation day, the crew arrived right on time, worked efficiently, and left the property spotless when they were done. Their workmanship was impressive. We?re extremely happy with the results and would confidently recommend Berg Roofing to anyone seeking reliable, high-quality service. "

"Very happy with the outcome. We were dreading this job as we have extensive plantings around the entire perimeter of our home. A tear-off and roof replacement is by definition a very messy job. The crew did a great job protecting and respecting our numerous plantings -- thus we had minimal damage. They spent significant extra effort to haul all the debris across the roof to small landing spot in front. Not the cheapest bid but we are happy we went with this boutique roofing -- quality materials and crew"

Very easy to communicate, very courteous and a pleasure to work with. His team did a great job on cleanup as well. I would definitely recommend to others."

"The team from TTLC made the entire process simply and easy. I had a dedicated project manager that essentially took care of everything for us. I barely had to get involved at all, other than choosing days for installation. We chose from a variety of samples and colors which all looked nice. They did a really good job replacing our roof and gutters. If you need any roof, siding or gutter work, I definitely recommend TTLC!"

"I will try to keep this short. I have waited weeks till I had time to completely digest the events. I am retired, skilled and experienced in the trades plus I have many decades as a skilled and US Gov. licensed technician and inspector. The ONLY thing that kept this from being a D were the two guys nailing down the shingles. I watched them like an FAA inspector. They aligned each shingle before nailing it x5. The "roof" looks good but not my driveway. I was up on the roof the entire time with the "good crew." I saw ALL their flaws and was shocked. I wish I could post the photos I took. My drive was now has approximately 30 feet of grooves cut into it by the carpenter of this crew. He was cutting plywood for repairs and just laid the wood flat on my drive way and cut away with his skill saw. Well the skill saw went through the wood right into my drive way. I showed the Project Manager and he said "well when you reseal the drive way it will cover up the all the cuts." This same designated crew carpenter cut plywood repairs either way to small and left 1/2" to 3/4" gaps or to big. If they were to big he just beat on the plywood or jumped up and down on it till it went in. This was done to the GREAT amusement of other crew members. This same Crew Carpenter "tried" to drive a 8 Common Nail but it dent over. Instead of pulling the bent over nail out he just hammered in so laid horizontally smashed into the plywood. In front of the crew I dug it out and put in a nail correctly. They cut shingles on newly laid Ice Barrier material cutting the barrier. I mentioned this to the Project Manager and he said " the shingles will cover it." Ice Barrier is self sticking. One section had waves in it. I brought this to the Crew Lead and he said they will just cut the width of the Ice Barrier to get it to lay flat. So much for the Ice Barriers integrity. One of the guys just threw the styrofoam chutes vents in the attic between the roof rafters. The chutes say right on them staple. None of mine were stapled or pushed down into the eaves correctly. I corrected all of them myself. The project Manager was going to I subtract for my time spent. I said no thanks. My brown Valley W Channel was dented and scratched up. One 3" dent came close to going through the this metal. I again mentioned this to the Project Manager and he said it probable happened by dragging stuff over the installed Valley W Channel. For brevity these are only some of the problems/issues. The Project "only" said sorry when I handed him the final $10,000.00 check. I did speak to a manager and salesman from Infinity. They fixed stuff and offered to replace the dented and scratched W Valley Channel. I declined because it would require disturbing a good number of fresh/new shingles. For the many cuts in my driveway they offered $300 off the bill. We told them to donate the $300 to a local private animal shelter and do it in our name. It you use this company you or somebody knowledgeable in this type work oversee EVERYTHING ALL the time. The clean up guy worked hard for 12 hours picking up all the old stuff as it came off the roof."

"Robert’s company was hired to do the roof and replace the gutters and downspouts at my mother’s house this past summer (2020). My mom hired him because he had done a good job replacing the siding back in 2003 and trusted his work. Robert and his crew were prompt, efficient and responsive to any questions we had. They completed the job in a timely fashion and made sure everything was cleaned up. Thanks Robert and Co. for all your help!"

"M Construction replaced my roof at a fair price. We've had several big wind storms with heavy rain and I haven't found any indications of water intrusion and I still have all of my shingles so I am assuming they did the work correctly. Chuck was very patient and accommodating and answered all of my questions and worked to arrange the install date so as to have the least detrimental impact to my family. The team that replaced my roof worked hard to complete the job in a single 12 hour day. The only negatives I have are the following: 1) they placed shingles directly on my lawn, and the chemicals in the shingles killed the grass underneath. Luckily it is starting to grow back. 2) they aren't very good at cleanup. There were a lot of tiny pieces of plastic, packaging, shingle, and tar paper, left behind and I am still cleaning it up. I also continue to find the occasional roofing nail in my lawn or flower bed. In spite of these two issues, I will probably hire M construction again when I replace my gutters."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Schaumburg, IL

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.
