"On or about 11/3/2021 I entered into and executed a contract with Clyde Johnson Contracting & Roofing, Inc., to install a new roof on my 91 year old mother's home. The first installment was paid on 11/15/21 to Clyde Johnson Contracting & Roofing, Inc. They begin working on the roof on 2/8/22 and advised the work was completed 2 days later on 2/10/22. Upon my inspection of the completed work the job was not completed correctly per the contract. They also forged her signature on documents to obtain a completed inspection from the inspectors for the City of South Bay. Which is now preventing my now 93 year old mother from ascertaining homeowners insurance. I reached out to advise the work was not completed per the contract entered into. I spoke to both Tim and Titus Johnson to resolve this issue. At that time both agreed to fix the roof correctly per the contract, to date nothing has been done to correct their breach of contract. No one has reached out to me since to correct this, however I am receiving bills from them. I even filed a Complaint with DBPR to resolve this matter and this company lied and said the job was completed correctly, when in actuality it was not. This company took advantage of a 93 year old woman and refuses to correct their wrong doing. Her home is unable to be insured at this time due to their lack of professionalism. I have reached out through other resources to try and get this resolved without court action, however I have been unsuccessful. This company needs to finish the job correctly per the contract, so that my mother can obtain homeowners insurance."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Wewahitchka, FL

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.
