"Excellent service and follow-up. The roof was completed in one day and the gutters and downspouts two days later. Nick kept us informed throughout the process."

"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."

"It was excellent and seamless. Picking the material was also easy. Eugene is very responsive and easy to work with. Workmanship was excellent. I have a brand new roof, oversized gutters, downspouts and gutter guard which were installed. He also replaced the plywood in the areas where it was damaged."

"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!"

"Wow. I have never had a major home project go so smoothly!! From my first phone call to get an estimate until the final installment of the roof, every step was completed promptly and without problems.. I called for an estimate and Steve Pinsler came out the very next day. Steve was easy to work with and I was always able to reach him. Steve's price was better than other quotes we had gotten for the same or lesser quality roof.He's crew pulled off the old roof and replaced it in one day. They were polite, on time, worked quickly, and did an excellent clean up job. I absolutely recommended hiring A&D Home Improvement!"

"I recently found out that I had storm damage to my roof. I contacted my insurance company and the adjuster came out and verified the damage, providing me with what I needed to get the roof repaired. After checking around, I contracted with Titan Construction to replace the roof on my home. This company is great to work with. Start to finish was 5 stars! They were extremely professional in every way. First the owner of the company, Leszek Gurgul, came out to review what the insurance company said needed to be done. He explained in detail what they were going to do and how the job would be done. I had a number of questions which were answered clearly and succinctly. I was given a start date for the roof replacement and on that day the crew arrived on time. There were five guys sent to do the roof replacement. The guy in charge was very professional. He once again told me what they were going to do and started working promptly. They worked throughout the day taking care not to cause any damage to the area below my roof. Tarps were put down to protect flowers, shrubs and to catch the debris of the old roof. They worked tirelessly until the job was completed. When they were done, it was like they weren't ever there. My house looked great with the new roof. No garbage was left lying about. They cleaned up everything. Clearly, I would recommend Titan Construction as a quality company. I'll be recommending Titan to my friends and neighbors as a reputable company to do business with."

"In May 2020, A&D Exteriors completed 2 large projects for my wife and I: 1) they replaced our asphalt shingle roof, and 2) they installed vinyl siding to replace our cedar siding. We are extremely pleased with how both projects turned out! Kevin Kowalski was the project manager for both projects, and he was a pleasure to work with. He came to our house to evaluate what we wanted done, and he emailed us detailed proposals for each project. The prices were very competitive, and we signed the proposals to move forward. From start to finish, Kevin kept us informed about the status of things, and he always answered our questions promptly. A&D Exteriors also has a designer, Heidi, and she came out to give us her ideas, including helping us choose colors. The roof replacement was done first, and it was completed in 1 day. Eugene was the foreman of a large crew of 7. They came at 7:30am and were done at 3:30pm. Importantly, the crew did a terrific job of cleaning up. Something we particularly liked was that they didn’t put a fixed dumpster in our driveway, they used a dump trailer on wheels to avoid doing damage to the driveway. The dump trailer was dropped off the night before, and was taken away the same day after the roof replacement was finished. The siding project was next, and Arthur was the foreman of a crew of 2. The 2 of them did an amazing job putting up the vinyl Board and Batten vertical siding and the LP SmartSide engineered wood trim to closely match the existing look of our Tudor style house. The work was completed in 4.5 days, and the house looks great! They also did a thorough job of cleaning up. We give A&D Exteriors our highest recommendation!"

"After reviewing several roofing companies on Angi and elsewhere, as well as one family recommendation, we went with Seidel to have all the singles, underlying materials, and gutters replaced on our ~ 25 year old home. The first thing to know about this company is that Udo is a knowledgeable professional who is happy to answer any questions leading up to the job, and assist with things that can be challenging, like getting permits or working with HOAs. During the work he checked in multiple times and even supplied some photos of the roof while the crew was up there, to confirm boards were all OK. In short, he doesn't miss details and does a great job communicating throughout. We went with a higher grade of shingle and supporting materials, and so far (after 30+ days and several storms) the overall quality looks great. I don't anticipate any issues through the coming winter, but will update should anything warrant it. Can fully recommend Seidel and we are also likely to use them for a siding project, based on our positive experiences with the roof."

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