Why Homeowners Prefer Us for Roof Repair Near You

Cedar

Cedar shingles or shakes are made from wood. The most common is the redwood cedar that comes primarily from BC and other places. They can be hand split or sawed into tapered thickness, known as tapersawn.

Slate

Slate roofs are made from natural slate, a rock that is split into thin sheets.
Known for their natural beauty and extreme durability, slate roofs are one of the premier roof materials.

Synthetic

An alternative to cedar or slate, synthetic cedar and slate are designed to look nearly identical to their counterparts. There are many reasons to choose synthetic materials, contact us to learn more.

Copper

Copper roofing is an elegant and durable choice for your building. It is installed in panels, which are overlapped, with soldered seams to create a watertight seal. There are many beautiful custom designs and detailed copper work you can add to your building.

Recognize the signs of wear on a Slate or Cedar roof!

It is crucial to maintain your specialty roof to secure its integrity and longevity. 

  • Cracked or broken slates: which can allow water to penetrate and lead to more extensive damage.  
  • Missing slates or Cedar Shakes: Compromise the roof’s protective layer. 
  • Check for signs of discoloration or fading: May indicate weathering due to prolonged exposure to the elements.  
  • Water stains or leaks in your attic or ceilings: Could signal underlying issues.  

Regular inspections and maintenance can help identify these problems early, ensuring your slate or cedar roof continues to provide protection and beauty for years to come. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Cedar contains allelochemicals, which are a natural repellent to certain insects. They are less likely to eat cedar than other types of lighter wood. However, termites will still attack cedar if that’s the only option they have. The allelochemicals are found in the core of the wood, so the outer layers are still appetizing to them. 

No. Using a pressure washer can vastly expedite the ageing process on your shakes. Also, extra exposure to moisture can cause rot or the loss of its structural integrity. Cedar is water-resistant, but pushing that boundary isn’t a good idea. 

You don’t have to apply any treatments, but doing so will increase the strength and life expectancy of your roof. If you do choose to treat, make sure you’ve completely removed any debris before applying. 

Yes, it’s better to tear off old shingles when installing new ones, especially if the former is curling or in bad shape. On the other hand, if the old shingles are excellent, then it would also be practical if the new shingle roof lay flat on your old one.
