The truth is not all cedar roofs need replacing. Many roofing contractors will tell you that you need a new roof, when in fact you don’t. 95% of the wood is usually solid, sound and healthy and the underlying paper is in original condition. I don’t know how many times I’ve inspected roofs that the home owners were told by some roofing company that they had to replace it immediately. More often than not the roof is in prime condition with very little needed to bring it back to excellent condition: new ridge caps are usually required, damaged shakes are removed and replaced, cracks are shimmed, and the cedar is treated with a beautiful looking finish that protects it from sun damage, rain (rotting) and organic growth (moss and lichen).

Certainly, there are some cases when a new roof is required but more often that not it isn’t. It’s like replacing your car if you have a flat tire or a dent in the door. It just doesn’t make economical sense. Our restoration guarantees are almost identical to our re-roofing guarantees so it’s a huge saving- for you!

When you call on CedarEX to restore your roof, you get far more than a simple roofing contractor. CedarEX strives to be the best roofing option in the industry, from top notch customer service to competitive price to the best products on the market.

A CedarEX roofing restoration gets you:

Roofing can be damaged by such things as surrounding tree debris, collected leaf litter, moss, sun damage and more, and those areas exposed to such issues will inevitably be the first sections that need attention.

CedarEX offers multiple roofing options - we can build you a new roof, we can treat your new roof to help it last longer, we can sell you roof treatment products, and most importantly, we can repair and restore your existing roof so that it's as good as new.

A CedarEX roof restoration is more than just shingles and nails - it's a complete process that combines the best of nature with the best of technology to create a home that looks clean, stays clean, doesn't rot, saves on your heating bills that lasts decades.

The end result? A roof that looks new, and will last.

Please understand that we turn down a lot more restoration projects than most companies (approximately 25%) when the roof has clearly deteriorated too far for what we would consider a ‘good result’. In talking to our customers, we have found that often when we refuse a restoration, other firms are willing to proceed regardless. Please be warned, in such cases it will likely be an unhappy experience for all involved, as no guarantee compensates you for the frustration of future repair issues.

If your roof is unrestorable, CedarEX™ will be happy to re-roof your home in accordance with your budget, but one thing we will never do is waste your time and money with short term solutions to a long term promise.

In addition, there are occasions when, upon starting the cleaning process, we find that your roof has hidden problems that make restoration a poor option. In these instances (roughly 2% of all roofs), we will offer you a full refund of all money spent to that point, leave the roof in the same condition we found it (or better), and discuss with you the appropriate replacement options that you should consider going forward.

A CedarEX roof restoration is an investment in your home that adds value to your property, will cut your heating costs for years, and will look great to anyone who passes. Don't wait until your roof is falling apart - CedarEX is waiting for your call. We'll send out an estimator to tell you what your new roof will cost, how long it will take to install, and how long we'll guarantee that it will last.
