"Joseph and the team at MVP Remodeling did an incredible job on our backyard. We added a pergola, pavers, and lighting, and everything looks amazing. Joseph was organized and easy to work with, and his crew was respectful and clean. We finally have a backyard we’re proud of. Highly recommend MVP!"

"The roof seems OK but ultimately I would not recommend Artizmo. They initially quoted 22k to tear up the shingles and replace with new. Once the roof was torn open, they hit us for another 8.5k due to redecking they decided was needed. A very extreme jump in cost, but OK - so what do I get for an additional 8.5k? A mish mash of scrap planks cut out of small patches of the existing decking. Not even ONE board was completely replaced (see photos). I pushed back on the 8.5k number but at no point would they provide detailed information about sqft of wood replaced for that 8.5k. That and they already had the roof ripped up so we were forced to pay whatever they wanted to continue. Additionally, they insisted it would be better for them to replace the fascia while doing the roof. Well, see the pictures to see what they considered ?done?. At no point did they indicate that they were only going to spot replace small sections (and actually cut existing fascia just to put a small plank in)"

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