"Had our roof replaced, looks like a clean install. Trey was easy to talk to and was very assuring. We'll see how the roof holds up against this weekend's snowstorm or whatever's coming our way. Yes I copy pasted my own review from Google Reviews."

"What a fantastic team to work and to do business with. Reliable, professional and great customer service is just a few words to describe Exteriormax. From the beginning to the end of my roof & gutter installation they were on point with scheduling, professional work crew and most of all the quality of work. I am a very satisfied customer and will be sure to recommend them should I hear of anyone needing roof repairs and/or replacement."

"We had the roof on our 2640 square-foot house replaced with an architectural-style one in Williamsburg Slate, grey tones with subtle red tones. We are very satisfied with the roof. The guttering and fascia repair will be done soon. Emily Rinaldo, the HCR marketing rep., gave a thorough and lengthy (3 hours) presentation on every aspect of the roof. She is personable, professional, and knowledgeable. The well-manned roofing team arrived on the day stated and completed most of the roofing in one day. The roofers had been trained by HCR and were not day-laborers or sub-contractors. They returned early the next morning and completed their work in a couple hours. No unpleasant surprises here! Financing is available."

"We were very pleased with everything about Wold Roofing! They arrived on time, completed the job on the coldest day of the year despite the snow arriving as they finished, and the warranty was the best one offered by any of our previous estimates. Have already recommended Daniel aka Roof Guy to friends!"

"Gutter Ethics LLC came to my aid when no other roofing company would take the time to come out to my property. This is because back in early 2018, the Washington DC metro area had a powerful wind and rain storm that damaged numerous properties in the DC metro area. Roofs were completely blown off, trees fell on houses, cars, flooding some places. It was a mess and roofing companies were getting hundreds of calls a day and were completely overwhelmed and booked out for months at a time. I had a hole in my roof where the roofing tiles had blown off. I first needed a tarp on my roof to cover the hole to keep my house from experiencing further damage, and then I needed the whole roof replaced. Gutter Ethics LLC came to my rescue and immediately tarped the hole in my roof and put me on their schedule replace my roof. I can tell you from personal experience Gutter Ethics is an honorable and more than competent company. My new roof which was installed looks beautiful and I have had absolutely no problems since. Gutter Ethics is a very professional company and their workmanship is outstanding."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Williamsport, MD

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.
