"Mike from Windlickers is one of the most honest people I have ever met. He helped me navigate the roof process and never once seemed annoyed or pushy when it came to signing the contract or on what I should install. Instead of bashing competitors like so many others do he kept it straight to the facts of what HE would be doing. All around great guy and I will be recommending him to everyone I possibly can that needs any work done. He went out of his way to help me submit my original roof for warranty because of defective shingles. The one guy who went on that roof and let me know what I had and that I should submit a claim, right there is shows me he actually cared. 100% RECOMMEND!"

"Jake Krygier, Scott Nettesheim and their roofing and gutter crews completed a professional job on our home. Of all the firms we interviewed, Infinity Exteriors was the best at being the most thorough during the quoting process, going over all details without requiring that they first be awarded the job or be given any sign that they are a finalist. After they quoted the job, they were responsive to every follow up question. During the quoting process, Jake did an excellent job identifying, on his own, special roof and gutter design issues with our home, the kind of detail that the other firms did not notice. He also came up with a creative solution to a known roof issue. At the first meeting at our home, Jake brought roof and gutter materials for my wife and I to review and select, something else that none of the other firms did. As the job date approach this Spring, Scott was accommodating regarding the COVID 19 crisis, respecting our concerns about their crew and our family keeping safe and healthy. As the job progressed, the roofing crew, led by Enrique, was respectful about our concerns about keeping the landscaping undamaged. The gutter crew was also professional. Our gutter system has three issues related to the design of our home. The crew identified two of those issues on their own, brought them to our attention, and developed practical solutions. My wife and I were quite worried that our home would not look the same with asphalt shingles, as our home was built with cedar shake. Jake helped us select an affordable asphalt shingle that he felt could offer a look as special as what we had with cedar shake. To our surprise, once the roof was done, we realized that the choice of asphalt shingle has resulted in a curb appeal that is actually better than what the cedar shake created. Bottom line. We could not be more pleased with our investment in a new roof, as a result of the excellent work of Infinity Exteriors."

"He was very honest and upfront and said may be 6-8 weeks before could do the roof when awarded work as was very busy. After calling on 10/2 to get update on when might do he ended up being able to do it yesterday or less than 4 weeks. I was very impressed they did job for price and in one day with full tear off finding no nails or anything left laying on ground. He is very honest person with hard working crew and was less expensive than anyone else. I could tell right away he was honest person which is so very important when getting work done on your home. The overall quality of his work is very....very..... good for a very fair price. You might find another roofing company that may get graded excellent on overall quality but you will also be paying three to five thousand dollars more for this same job."

"Chad and his crew were absolutely amazing. From the first sales call, until the last nail of completion, I knew we could count on him. He had been referred, and we immediately felt comfortable with Chad, as he patiently explained the value in a significant undertaking - this roof will be there another 200 years, the quality is just that good! The work was on-time, professional, and the crew did a great job of cleaning up when they are done. We plan to use Metal Roofs Direct for other roofs when the time comes!"

"Highly recommend! Came out within 24 hours to do an emergency patch and replaced the whole roof within a day, only a few days from scheduling! He even met with our adjuster and showed him everything that was damaged. Roof looks great and they did an excellent job of cleaning up!"

"If you ask for my opinion about Bulldog Builders, LLC, I would say they are indeed the best in roofing-related service. I am saying this because I have used their service and shingles and cader shake and both times they lived up to my expectations very well. Keep it up, guys!"

"Initial visit and quote went well. Sales person was very knowledgeable and was able to provide a quote on the spot. Took nearly 3 weeks from acceptance of contract to paperwork being complete and work scheduled. Seemed a bit long since there was already a signed contract. Work started about 1 week after paperwork was completed. Dumpster was delivered a day early (on a Sunday), and the company dropping it off cracked my driveway. If I had known about the early delivery, I could have helped choose a drop off location that eliminated any chance for damage to the driveway. Work was supposed to take 3 actual days on-site, ended up taking 5 actual days. Rain further delayed things, but that is unavoidable and not on Infinity in any way. Quality of work was excellent when complete. Crew could have done a better job fitting the skylight, as they cut away more drywall than was needed to install it, but that was only a minor issue. Cleanup could have been better. Found a partial coil of nails in my parking spot, and a few loose nails in the yard between the house and the dumpster after work had been completed. Overall, the roof installation was very good, and the price was competitive with other roofers. The only negatives were the delays in starting the project, the cracked driveway, some minor disorganization during the project, and the less-than-perfect cleanup. I wouldn't have any reservation recommending them as long as you are willing to make a few calls to stay on top of when they will be starting the project and when they will be out each day to perform the work."

"We had a roof that needed cap shingle replacement prior to the sale of the home due to degradation of the previous shingles of the wrong type. Weather Pro Exteriors had someone out quickly to provide an estimate and they were able to schedule the repair within a week. The customer service was excellent and they were easy to work with. Pricing was significantly lower than another quote I received and we are happy with the work performed. Very personable and responsive!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Watertown, WI

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.
