"Excellent Service and Repair! The gentleman doing the installation was very professional and seemed very knowledgeable. He was able to explain the difference in advantages/disadvantages of various roof materials. And the work was done before the next rain!"

"Total waste of $3000. Job looked like it was done by toddlers. Again. I asked them to fix the botched original attempt. Didn't expect much, they met my expectations. "

"Eric Young came to my house to provide a quote to replace my furnace. My usual HVAC guy told me it needed to be replaced. While Eric was checking it out I asked if he could troubleshoot it and tell me why it wasn't working. He said for sure. So, I asked him how much. He said $69. I said do it. In less than 5 minutes he found what was wrong and fixed it! Wow. He told me the romex connector on the motherboard (that my HVAC replaced) was installed backwards so there was no power going to the furnace. That saved me thousands of dollars it would have cost had I listened to my HVAC guy! He's not my HVAC anymore. Eric Young is. He was thorough, efficient and pleasant to work with. I will contact Baker Electric from now on if I ever need their service again. I highly recommend them."

"It went extremely well: team was courteous, professional and efficient. Cleaned up at the end of each day, paid attention to the property and delivered excellent results. New roof looks stunning, and this one is hopefully not leaking, unlike the 30-year old roof they replaced!"

"After completing the work the company checked out the roof for me for any future damage. They got the job done but I thought it was pricy for two hours of work. They did good. It went fine, the price was just high."

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