"Joe worked with me very closely providing an initial estimate and with any revisions. We scheduled a date and he stuck to it; we talked about possibility of work spilling into a second day given earlier sunset in late September. Work crew started early and they worked through the entire day finishing around dinner time. Work crew was detail oriented and efficient as was clean up. Joe stayed with the crew and managed suppliers delivery of new roofing materials. Overall a very good and positive experience. I solicited two other larger regional roofing companies and their estimates were detailed and thorough but their pricing was too high. Compared to NML's pricing, the other two roofers were about 25% higher."

"Sergey contacted us within a minute of submitting our request through Angie's List. He came out within a few days to check out what we were looking for. Very polite, professional, and fully masked up. He gave us a price before leaving. We were so impressed we did not even get a second estimate. He said he would show up at 7 AM on the day the work was to be completed and he did, right to the minute. He and his crew did a great job and left the outside area and our family room clean and neat. I was particularly impressed with his finish work, something lacking by a lot of contractors. All in all, a very happy ending for us."

Experienced General contractor in all areas of contracting Specializing in roofing ,remodeling and siding.I am here to help you with all your General contracting needs. Being a screened and approved professional gives you the peace of mind you need to allow us to give your home the attention it deserves. Call us today and let's get started!

"We hired Joe to repair and replace the roof of our bookstore which we acquired in 2021 (a Victorian era brick and limestone building, 100+ years old). The roof is a 3000 sq ft flat commercial roof with latex waterproofing which has been patched over the years, but it’s likely been more than 30 years since major repairs were done. In the ensuing years, ice and snow have produced damage, and we saw major leaks by the winter of 2023. This damage was primarily in the boards (under the waterproofing) and ceiling rafters. Where possible, Joe made repairs, but where necessary, he replaced all materials. He added new insulation and new latex waterproofing throughout, He jacked portions of the ceiling rafters and repaired or replaced here as well. It was a huge and difficult job. He did excellent work. We are very happy with his work. As far as we’re concerned, he saved our bookstore."

Wood shake or composite roofing installations and replacements FAQs

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.
