"<p>I had a great experience with Sequoia Roofing.  Mike Rochholz, the owner, was helpful and responsive.  He helped me select the right type of roof considering the style of my house, the size of my roof, and my neighborhood.  He made sure I was happy throughout the process and was very attentive to all my questions and concerns.  The team on site was professional and did good work.  They were very careful with my property and landscaping and cleaned up every day before leaving.  In my final walk through, there were a few areas I wanted to be touched up and some one came out immediately and attended to the areas.  Sequoia is not the cheapest option I had, but when it came to my roof, I wanted the confidence to know the work would be done well and that the company would stand behind their work for years.  I am very happy with my choice and the outcome. i would highly recommend Sequoia Roofing.   </p>"

"I dealt with Leon De Anda for my roof work. Leon was honest and professional and very informative about what could be done with my roof. He offered me a few options and also asked me if there were anything specific I wanted done. I basically described what I wanted and he curtailed his bid to what I was looking for at the best price. I liked the fact that he was honest and straight forward without playing any games or try and screw me over. In the end, I decided to get a whole new roof, down to even getting all new plywood. The men who came to work on the roof were competent and professional. They went to great lengths to only bother me when it was necessary. Everyday they made a mess but at the end of the day they would always clean it up. I thought they were very professional. Leon was not at my house everyday but he was always just a phone call away. He was very accessible. Once the work was completed, Leon and myself walked around the property and inspected the work. He made sure that I was completed satisfied before everything was finalized. Protecta Roofing made a big impression on me based on the way they started and completed this job. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get some roof work done or even some general contracting work done."

"I had a new roof put on 2 years ago.  It started leaking this year.  Bad news.  I called the original roofer and he was out of business.  Bad news again.  I called a few guys to come place bids, and Rick was one of them.  He basically told me the roofing job was not one of the most professional he had seen.  He was being diplomatic.  He told me what he felt the problem was and it matched what other bids had said.   He offered to try to replace the area or replace the entire side of roof.  We went with the limited patch to start, knowing he might need to replace the rest. <br /> He did a great job.  His team was on time and completed the work as expected.  There was no debris or junk left behind.  We have been through several bad storms and the roof is doing great.  Thank you for your honest work, Rick! <br />"

"Zenith was easy to work with and they did great work. I received three different quotes to remove and install new gutters around my house. Zenith was the only company that was able to provide an estimate without physically visiting the property, their rates were better than the other estimates I received, and they completed the work on time and within the budget. I would use Zenith for any future roofing needs and highly recommend them to others."

"We had Brian Ray come out to give us an estimate on replacing our roof, but after talking with him and getting educated on the condition of our roof. Then getting educated on the way a roof should be installed. We decided that this was the company we wanted to do business with. Also know the staff doing the work will have been trained and get retained each year makes me feel they will do the right thing for the customers. Brian was not pushy but instead explained everything in details that we could understand. Looking forward to the day they install the new roof."

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Vista, CA

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.
