Wood Shake Roof Installation Services in Washington, DC
Wood Shake Roof Installation in Washington, DC
Our team handles wood shake roof installations across Washington, DC. We focus on cedar shakes that resist the area's humid summers and cold winters. Local knowledge helps us meet strict building codes and historic preservation rules.
Addressing Common Pain Points
- Leaks from improper underlayment: We install full ice and water shields for complete protection.
- Premature rot in humid climates: We select kiln-dried western red cedar with natural decay resistance.
- Messy job sites: Our crews use tarps and daily cleanups to protect your property.
- Short lifespan from low-quality materials: We source shakes graded for thickness and durability.
Our Installation Process
We start with a free on-site inspection to assess your roof deck and pitch. Next, we remove old roofing and repair any damaged sheathing. Then, we apply synthetic underlayment and install shakes in a staggered furring strip method for airflow. Finally, we add ridge caps and flashing. The full process takes 3 to 5 days for most homes, depending on size.
Warranty Information
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on installation. Materials carry a 30-year limited warranty from the manufacturer against defects. Annual inspections for the first five years ensure long-term performance. Register your roof with us for full coverage.
