"GoTo Roofing was very prompt in scheduling our serious roofing issues. I was not able to be there while they were working or was I able to inspect the finished job until a couple of weeks later. I was impressed with the workmanship! The chimney, vents and even the original lightning rods were blended and sealed perfectly! In addition, a piece of trim siding that had blown off the peak of the house was replaced-I would have never been able to get up there! I was thrilled at their kindness, replacing it even though it was not part of their job! This is the second time we have used GoTo Roofing-I HIGHLY recommend them!"

"I recently hired Heavenly Investments to finish my entire basement, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work. While I selected the drywall category for this review, they truly handled everything: framing, drywall installation, mudding, taping, tiling, and a full cleanup. It was a complete transformation. What stood out most was how quickly they fit me into their schedule and how much care they put into every detail. They treated my home like it was their own, focusing on both the quality of their work and keeping the space clean. I never had to call in another crew for cleanup - they left the basement spotless. They also installed tile flooring over concrete throughout the basement, and the result is absolutely beautiful. It’s clear they take pride in their work. We’re extremely happy and already planning to use them again. I highly recommend Heavenly Investments to anyone looking for reliable, top-quality work."

  1. They were prompt coming out for the estimate and to do the job. The installation was much faster than I expected. The crew was professional and friendly.

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Ypsilanti, MI

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.
