Shake Roofing

Quality Cedar Wood Shake Roofing Systems

Commonly found on multifamily properties, cedar shake roofs are the perfect mix of tradition and modern aesthetics. At Roofworx, our skilled roofing contractors can install and repair your cedar wood shake roof with ease.

Original Use

When these roofs were installed years ago, they were installed over spaced plank decking that allowed the roof to breath naturally from the attic space to the outside. Due to the potential fire risk, this type of decking installation is typically no longer allowed which has inherently thinned out the remaining cedar shake roofs in the region. Even though the decking installation is now solid sheathing without spaces, some homeowners and businesses have attempted to keep the roofing and have installed them over a solidly sheathed surface. This has created problems since the cedar shake roofing originally were designed to breathe and vent naturally.

Currently

Unfortunately, cedar shake roofing based shingles are no longer widely accepted as a roofing material and are commonly replaced with tile, metal, composites or high grade asphalt shingles. Even though these old cedar shake shingles were treated and held a fire rating, there have been enough instances where the roofing material has combusted to shadow this product in insecurities, making it less than ideal for multifamily complex application

Mostand City Jurisdictions have stopped allowing cedar shakes to be installed in the Denver and Front Range regions. As such, our roof contractors are finding that many property owners are forgoing repairs and instead investing in complete multifamily roof replacements to protect their investments.

If your jurisdiction is forcing you to replace your Cedar Wood Shake Roofing, please call Roof Worx to discuss your Denver roofing options. It is important to fix these roofs before an incident occurs; Roof Worx offers options tailored to your property’s needs and can help replace your roof quickly.

Roof Worx installed our roof several years back. In the recent crazy wind storm, the hurricane force winds caused a small amount of damage. Roof Works was very responsive and did a warranty repair within a couple of days. They got it in before the snow came again, which is very appreciated! Thanks again to Jacob, Victor, and the whole team.

Victor was very responsive, He gave an accurate estimate, was very pleasant to work with, honest about what to expect, and very professional. After examining the roof already and determining it's need for repair, he also came out at the same time as the insurance company to advocate for any extra things needed. They came out the day after Thanksgiving just as they said they would, and had the job done in a day!

My insurance agent recommended Roof Worx, LLC as they had prior positive experiences with them. I am so glad I asked for this recommendation. The company was outstanding from start to finish. My project manager, Noah, was very knowledgeable. Noah spent a great deal of time with me offering options and advice. Bringing samples to my home helped to visualize the options, colors, and the completed project. Answering my questions, explaining roofing jargon, warranties, explaining roofing and city inspections procedures, answering my many calls and emails must have tried his patience. But he was such a good teacher and always willing to help me understand and be comfortable with every aspect of the process. My homeowners association was an obstacle because I wanted to make a small color change to the shingles. I had a great deal of frustration with their delay in reviewing my request and amazement at their questions. Noah and Roof Worx, LLC stuck with me assisting in answering questions and talking to one of the board members with me. It was two months before the HOA sent final approval. I believe other companies would have asked me to find someone else to re-roof my home. Not every roofing company would have the owner come to my home to review the progress and quality of work. Roof Worx, LLC did. The entire crew were both polite and hard working. In addition, they were punctual and experienced. Landscaping was protected by tarps. The cleanup was better than anything that I have seen before. I am totally satisfied with my new roof. I highly recommend Roof Worx, LLC.

Scott is very kind. I called in the morning and the inspection was done in the afternoon. This is as much as anyone can expect.

Roof Worx was an excellent choice to re-roof my house. They where punctual and professional in all aspects of the job. I enjoyed communicating and working with Barry Crawford, Leo and his crew. They explained all the steps to be performed and I felt very comfortable with them there. The crew did an excellent job. I highly recommend them.

Barry came out to look at my roof and gave an honest evaluation. He let us know the roof did not need to be replaced at the time. I appreciate not being sold on something that I did not need. I will call them when it is time for a replacement.
