Customers say: Quick response

"Outstanding experience from start to finish. Ric was in communication with me throughout the entire process. Got me in for this replacement in light of a short house closing date and completed the work in one day. Listed everything that was to be done and fulfilled all of it. The price on this replacement was half of what I was quoted by an inspector. Everything was as stated and not a scrape was left to be found of debris. I can't say enough good about this company. Lisa met me after the job was completed to receive payment and that was a courtesy in itself. Will recommend this company to anyone in need of anything roof related. Thanks for all you did."

"Craig came out and gave me a very competitive estimate to repair my siding (less than his counterparts). He was also quickly able to tell exactly what make/color I had without having to go through a week+ of research. His installation team took a couple days longer to get to my house than planned but overall they did a good job on the work. I would recommend him to anyone that needs siding work."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Travelers Rest, SC

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.
