"I was pleased with the honest appraisal of L. Lester on the roof's condition. After his walk-over he showed me pictures he had taken of where the leaks were coming from. He repaired the two leaks in a timely manner and at a cost I was very pleased with. He also answered questions I had on roofs in general and made me more comfortable in making my decision as well. Very professional employee."

"Good crew to work with. It takes a while to get to the front of the queue. Like most good construction businesses, they run a significant backlog. Adding to that is the Ashe County weather in winter. Once they got to us, they worked quickly to remove an old shake roof and replace it with a metal one. They were careful about clean-up. A new metal roof isn't cheap but it looks good and will outlast me."

"Were extremely happy with the entire process.  We were given a timetable for when the work was to begin and when it was to be completed and, except for a couple of unavoidable rain delays, the work went right sccording to schedule.  The quality of the work was excellent, and we were very satisfied with the crew as well as James Brougham, our contact from the company.  Should we need another roof - and the idea is that we never will (!) - we would definitely use these folks again.

"They worked efficiently and overall did an excellent job! Missed a few finishing spots but quickly painted where they missed. Spilled a little paint on the roof while painting dormiers but said the painter accidentally slipped on the roof. Over all excellent work and would rehire again. They will be back to do some more work for me in the future. Thank you Jesus and Hector!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in West Jefferson, NC

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.
