What It’s Like To Consider a Re-Roof

A new customer in Wheaton contacted us to check on the condition of their old cedar shake roof. After the inspection CRC’s team determined that replacement would be the best way to move forward. After looking at many samples and going over the benefits the customer decided that a synthetic roof would be the best option for them. Our crews installed a Brava Shake Roof in the color Lake Forest Gray. In addition to the roof replacement they added the accessories of oversized aluminum gutters and downspouts, as well as snow guards, copper standing seams and gutter guards. Our team and the homeowner was thrilled with how the house turned out and happy they will no longer need to worry about annual repairs and cleaning! Below see our before and after. Note from the homeowner: “Thanks for helping us pick out a great roofing product and the crew is doing a fantastic job on it!”
