"American Craftsmen of North Carolina did a stellar job of replacing our roof, replacing our gutters, and repairing and painting our porch. The operation was seamless from start to finish and we are so grateful for the exceptional service that American Craftsmen provided! Communication remained steady from the initial estimate to the final walkthrough and all of our questions were answered in a timely way throughout the process. The teams were professional, courteous, and punctual and they completed all of the projects with great skill and efficiency. Our estimate matched our final bill with no surprise charges. This is an awesome company and we have already recommended them to two people. If you are in need of any of the repairs that this company offers, we would highly recommend them without hesitation. These are real deal pros and we are very satisfied customers!"

"Beth Lindsey and Brandon Freeman were both very professional and very easy to work with. This was partial replacement of the exterior siding on our home, and it was amazing how well the James Hardie pre-finished siding matched up with the existing siding. The job was started on time, completed on schedule, and everything was cleaned up afterward. We’re very pleased with their work and will be using these folks for future projects."

"This company is very shady and unethical. We selected them because of the price. It was substantially lower than other quotes received. The reason it was lower was because it wasn't accurate. With the dumpster in our yard, and the roofing materials delivered only then did they "discover" we also needed all new planking. We were prepared and budgeted for a $21,300 project. Suddenly we needed to come up with an additional $8,500 for the plywood. This was part of all the other roofer's quotes. When I voiced that I wanted to use another company they told me I signed a contract and they planned to enforce it. If I broke the contract I would have to give them 1/3. I had no choice but to cave. When I pressed on why this wasn't discovered until they started- they had no response. I was stuck and was forced to proceed (or walk away from $7,100). BEWARE!!! 6/25/2025"

"Aaron and his crew replaced the roof on my house, and I could not be happier with work done. Through every step of the process, he communicates well, delivers on time and the cleanup was fantastic. Double A Roofing did such an outstanding job that I hired them again to put the roof on a garage I've had built. I'd recommend them twice, before any other company out there."

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