Excellent! Start to finish we are SO happy! Our sales rep, Chris was helpful and knowledgeable in selecting materials and making recommendations. Our project manager, Josh was onsite every day and managed the work flawlessly. Josh inspected our property before and after the job making sure that all was well. In fact, we had a whole team of knowledgeable, helpful people available start to finish. And, special thanks to the courteous, skillful installers who worked so hard and made our home picture-perfect! Thank you!
Replacing a roof can be an overwhelming selection process, knowing you are trusting someone with the safety and integrity of one of your family’s biggest investments. After reviewing 3 companies and their complete service offerings, Shake Guys stood head and shoulders above the rest. We recently had the pleasure of working with Josh and Mario from Shake Guys who project managed our install. WOW! First, let me share that Shake Guys made what was a daunting process of selecting the right company to protect our home an easy one. From the start the team was friendly knowledgeable and courteous. Once the project started Mario and Josh made sure we fully understood how they would proceed, what to expect and timing for completion. During the install, we received daily updates on progress including pictures of any potential hiccups or issues, which were fully explained and options clearly laid out for resolution. The team took extra care to cover all windows, tarp the ground surrounding the house and each day walked the perimeter with large rolling magnets to pick up any errant nails. The attention to detail and craftmanship was amazing. We have a fairly complex roof design and the engineering of the new gutter system was nothing short of incredible. We were very shocked this turned out to be a very very efficient crew! 4 days start to finish!!! Thanks to the team and a special thanks to Josh and Mario for the fabulous stakeholder engagement! Well done guys!
The Shake Guys are an example of how a well run company operates. Their crews are all professional and caring about your property. There was not one item to correct as the roof was done right the first time. When you want the best give these guys a call!
Shake Guys goes above and beyond! I recently called them with a roof issue and they were out at my home quickly and provided the lowest estimate out of three companies I contacted. They got the job done and they were super helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend them for any roofing project large or small. I trust them completely!
This is the second time I’ve worked with Shake Guys and their rep Ryan, for maintenance on my cedar shake roof, and I couldn’t be happier. Ryan is clearly very knowledgeable, and did a great job helping define the proper scope of the project, including the pros/cons of different options. Work was done very well and in a timely manner. I strongly recommend Shake Guys.
If you have a shake roof, these are your guys for repair and coating. They are competitively priced and offer a quality product. The team was thorough, friendly, and before they left they made sure that I was satisfied. Highly recommend them!
First off I take reviews very seriously. I wish every contractor or service provider was as easy to work with from start to finish. Given the nature of a roofing project alongside the insurance claim process, Shake Guys is second to none. When I originally did some research I contacted a few inspection committees in Illinois is and both mentioned Chris Paulus. When I met Chris i knew I had the right representation to make a claim. Chris’ “can do” approach and relentless follow up with the insurer to start and full disclosure with all terms and conditions made me very comfortable. The back office walked through the financial, permitting, scheduling, and closing forms with no issues and efficiency. Now let’s get to the install process. Chris provides great product selection information and the installation headed by Julio was Quality. I never met such a respectful, considerate, hard working crew for a significant job. Julio communicated with me everyday and answered my questions without issue. He also customized a fabrication solution for an irregular gutter located under one of my elevated porches. I never had to ‘hawk” progress, workmanship, or accuracy to plan but instead earned a lot about the structure through Julio as I moved to the home not quite two years ago. Bottom line I always measure service quality with me asking would I hire these guys as employees for my own company. It is a resounding “ Yes”. I am more than willing to answer any questions from the owner and can’t thank everyone enough for making this a stress free experience.
Sal and the crew did a fantastic job on replacing our roof. Sal was very good at communicating and keeping me informed as well as making sure he addressed a few of my concern areas. There was one particularly difficult spot where the chimney and roof met where be bright in another expert to ensure it was addressed correctly. Afterwords they took drone shots of the roof and used that to make some adjustments to ensure the roof was perfect. They did a great job and would highly recommend them to anybody.
I chose the Shake Guys to replace my roof not solely based on their price but on the reviews that I had read as well as visiting various other locations where they had installed the same roofing product I had selected. They lived up to their reputation. Their work was done completely in accordance with our contract and I was totally pleased with the end product. They did the work with a crew that was appropriate for the size of my project which made the work go very quickly. They protected the property around the house to make sure nothing was damaged. Julio the project superintendent had his crew go to extremes to protect my koi pond and assured that the fish and the pond surroundings were not damaged or disturbed. When the work was done the property was thoroughly cleaned of construction debris and all outside deck furniture was placed back to where it was previously located. I highly recommend the Shake Guys.
I recently had my roof replaced by Shake Guys and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, their team, particularly Max and Sal, were professional, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable. Sal and his crew arrived on time each day, worked diligently, and made sure to keep the work area clean and safe. What really stood out was their attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship. Customer service was top-notch as well—any questions I had were answered promptly and clearly. It's rare to find a company that combines great communication with high-quality work, but Shake Guys truly delivered on both fronts. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of roof replacement. You’ll be in good hands!
I would like to congratulate the Shake Guys on a job well done in replacing my roof. Julio and his team were absolutely wonderful. Very helpful and very professional. Any and all questions or concerns that I brought up were handled very quickly and in a professional manner. The experience was seamless and very fast…. I would definitely use you guys again if the opportunity came about and I will certainly recommend you should anyone need help with any and all of their roof issues?
I would also like to send a shout out to Miss Tracy. Everything began with Tracy. From phone conversations to emails to follow ups all the way until the end. Tracy, you made it too easy for me!
Diego and his team were excellent! They replaced a 23 year old gazebo roof and it looks absolutely perfect and beautiful! They worked together so efficiently and came out with a great result.
I would recommend Diego and his crew from Shake Guys anytime!
These folks came and completed this job in 3 days with 8 men. They worked as a professional team, taking one section at a time & replacing it. The results surpassed my expectation. I highly recommend them.
Absolutely thrilled with the work Ryan did on our roof! From start to finish, his professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. He took the time to explain everything clearly, and the quality of the work exceeded our expectations. Our roof looks amazing, and we feel confident knowing it’s in great shape. Highly recommend Ryan and the team at Shake Guys to anyone looking for top-notch roofing services!
I called the SHAKE GUYS for some advice on maintenance of a shake roof. I own a house out of state, but couldn’t find anybody there that I felt was knowledgeable enough about how to maintain a shake roof, but the SHAKE GUYS were very helpful. Gave me a lot of information and I appreciate it. Sadly, I don’t have a house here with a shake roof otherwise I’d use them!
I can’t rate these guys high enough! They ripped off our 5 year-old roof (installed by another contractor) which failed because of a manufacturing error. The previous roofer was ok, but what a difference! The Shake Guys were extraordinary! From their fair bid, to their careful attention to details, extensive knowledge and experience and their conscientious cleanup, this re-roofing job (November 2024) was excellent! At times they had 15 people working on the 5,000 square foot roof. But everything was extremely well co-ordinated. We can confidently recommend The Shake Guys without reservation!
Great experience with this company. They kept their promise to finish our project before the season was over and worked over the weekend and in 30 degree weather to get it done. A huge shout out to Brody our sales rep and Julio our project manager. All the workers were very professional and they also did a great job cleaning up everything at the end of each day. We were worried that the composite wouldn't look as nice as real cedar but it's really hard to tell with the finished product. Thanks Shake Guys!
Very efficient once the long wait for materials was over. They brought a crew of about 10-15 guys and our very large cedar roof was completed in a little over a week. Julio was a great resource and made sure clean up was done well.
We were delighted with the quality of the work and the great guys that did it! A light on our deck was accidentally broken and the team went above and beyond to find the perfect replacement. Julio was the BEST project manager!
Our experience with Chad Treutler from Shake Guys has been great! Chad took his time and explained thoroughly what work we needed to have done. Chad explored repair options & each associated cost. We did not feel rushed, the price was appropriate for the job & was good for us. We’re completely pleased with their work. We definitely recommend Shake Guys & would use them again!
I was initially really blown away by the level of customer service displayed by Shake Guys. Charlie was extremely patient while discussing the available brands, colors, and styles and providing samples of the final few color choices. He made a point to answer all our questions and emphasized that he wanted us to be happy with the job once it was completed. I especially appreciated his following up and suggesting additional snow guards beyond those provided above critical areas – it was purely an aesthetic choice, and I was glad that he asked before work kicked off.
Daniel, our project manager, kept us informed of when they’d start work. Once on site, Fabian’s crew made a point to protect all the plantings around the house with plywood (versus just a tarp), keeping them from meeting a quick and flattened end during removal of the existing roof. They made short work of the removal and replacement and were finished with the roof after just two days.
Where things seemed to go a bit off the rails was in coordination and follow-ups once the roof was substantially complete.
- Prior to the start of work, materials were dropped off, including our skylights. After finding the blinds that were to be installed with the skylights were missing, I notified the office and eventually spoke with the PM, who assured me that it would be taken care of before installation (the subcontractor would have it with them). During the whirlwind of an installation, however, the skylights were removed and replaced before the kit could be installed and I was told that they’d just need to install it from the inside…it’s a two-story vaulted ceiling. The subcontractor came out and had the crew remove the skylights to allow installation from the exterior.
- After the crew was loading up and moving on to the next job, they cleaned up around the house. Daniel noted that they’d come through to do a second clean-up since some nails and other debris may still be on the roof and the initial clean-up doesn’t get everything. I’m not aware of a second clean-up ever being done. While I didn’t mind doing it myself, the lack of follow-through was irritating.
- During the tear-off, the gutter guards that I was told would be reinstalled were, in some cases, twisted and tossed into trash piles. I salvaged and straightened what I found. After I was told that we were ready for a final walkthrough I ran a camera over the gutters and found in several sections trash had been left in the gutters, sections of the mesh had been pushed into the gutters, or the sections were simply missing. Shake Guys fixed the sections once I voiced my concerns and I largely chalk this up to how quickly the crew was moving with the job. Had I not inspected the gutters myself, however, I don’t know whether this would have been addressed.
- When I called the village to confirm I could take the permit off the garage (it had been a while since I’d heard from anyone), I was told that they still needed a final inspection and a skylight inspection that was supposed to be done during construction hadn’t been scheduled. After speaking and later texting with Daniel, I was told that I needed to go ahead and coordinate the final inspection with the village myself. That didn’t seem to make sense, so I called the office and was told they would handle the final. Sure…no worries. The only concern here was that I had to follow up with Shake Guys to find out when the final inspection was scheduled. The day of the inspection I ended up calling the village to find out what time the inspection was scheduled for, only to find out that it had already been completed. To date no one from Shake Guys has circled back to confirm completion of the job or otherwise follow-up.
All-in-all we’re happy with the final product and focus on the experience we had at the start of the job. Given the stellar experience others have had with this company I’m assuming this is may have been a one-off.
Every aspect of my roof replacement was performed professionally. JOSH From sales took me through the process and made sure we were on course. JULIO, our project manager, was knowledgeable and kept us informed. He made sure everything went correctly and quickly. Our supervisors on site, FABIAN AND MARIO, checked in daily with me and made sure everything on site was done well and the site was cleaned daily. The crew worked extremely hard from dawn until after dark. Finally, the roof looks great and the job site was immaculate. I could not have asked for a better experience.
Shake Guys did a magnificent job installing our new EcoStar composite roof system and snow guards. From the initial estimate to the final inspection they kept us informed of the entire process and what to expect at every stage of the project. Sal, the project manager, was very experienced and informative yet also very professional and personal. The final result was amazingly aesthetic and adds not just curb appeal but real value to our home, it reduced our homeowners insurance by approximately 10% and surely makes us the envy of our neighbors, well done!!
Excellent job by the superviser and his entire team. They were extremely thorough and answered all of my questions to my complete satisfaction. I highly recommend Shake Guys.
Ryan came to assess our leak issue right away and was able to find the source of our leak while no one else could. He came back for a follow up as well. This was some of the best customer service we've ever had. 100% would recommend and we will be using Shake Guys when our roof needs any maintenance or when it's time for a new one.
From the start with Ryan P sales manager to the actual project and completion of my beautiful new roof under the project Manager Josh F it was actually a pleasant and efficient minimal stressful experience. From sales who helped in material colors and timing as well as finance and navigating the complexities of insurance claims to Josh the project manager who finished our roof on time with minimal interruption in our daily routines. I highly recommend Shake Guys ask for Ryan and Josh you will be pleased and quite satisfied . As we are. Also I need to express my admiration and gratitude to the workers who came daily on time worked so hard with a smile and a positive attitude in their work. Truly a professional friendly crew who enjoyed their work and each other.
Thank you Shake Gus
Initial impression…not so much. Very ready to take initial Deposit but took a few weeks to schedule roof cleaning and repair. They decided unilaterally to clean only a portion of the whole roof. After some discussion, agreed to clean the whole roof, which they did beautifully. Next day they applied the roof treatment. They were very thorough and careful to prevent any roof sealer from getting on the brick/ foliage/ windows/ etc.. I have to give particular credit to Diego and Julio for their attention to detail and their conscious awareness of what is required for perfection…they provided it. I highly recommend Shake Guys for roof cleaning/ sealing.
We've had roof preservation and roof repairs from Shake Guys multiple times. They are always professional and they always do the job right at fair prices. Last night, we had a terrible wind storm. We lost many shakes from the peak of our roof. I left a message after hours and Tyler called me first thing this morning. He arrived shortly thereafter, and all repairs were completed by lunchtime! It's good to know that we can always count on Shake Guys.
I chose Shake guy after a recommendations from one of my best friends. They came on times with seven people workings every day for six days and finished the work in-spite of having a large roofing. They cleaned the area well and left. They were several thousands more than the cheapest bid but we we went with them because of the recommendations of our friend and i am glad we did
A 5-Star experience and final product!! The Shake Guys recently replaced our old cedar shake roof with a new Brava synthetic cedar shake roof in the “New Cedar” color. They also replaced our gutters and downspouts. Quality and experience were key factors for us when choosing a vendor for this project. The Shake Guys really delivered on that! Our entire experience with the Shake Guys team was fantastic. It started with initial consultations with Connor L, whereby his easy-to-work-with-approach and great perspective of current options really helped us select the best choice for us. Then onto the worksite project led by Josh F, where he was so helpful at keeping us well-informed and more importantly at leading an impressive and high-quality installation process. The workmanship of Josh F and his team combined with the Brava “New Cedar” color of shakes resulted in an amazing looking final roof/gutters. We could not be happier with the process and our new roof/gutters! Thank you to Connor L, Josh F, and their talented & hard-working team!
Perhaps the most professional contractor group I have ever delt with for any project. Exceptionally good communication. Fantastic workmanship. Josh did an amazing job negotiating insurance coverage and what could have been a challenging issue was very simple. He did essentially everything and got our repair covered completely less deductible. Sal did a great job as site manager. Work was fast, unintrusive and of excellent quality with near spotless clean-up. I have a neighbor and a colleague who have used the same team at Shake Guys and they agreed. Appreciate having them on the project-we give Shake Guys our highest recommendation.
I would like to express my thanks to Shake Guys for such a great experience with our roof replacement. Beginning with Chad, who stuck with us through our elongated decision on the roof. Then once we decided and were underway we knew that we had picked the right company to work with. Josh F, the project manager was excellent to work with. Under his direction they work tirelessly to complete the project within 3 days.
I highly recommend Shake Guys for your roof replacement.
Professionals who take pride in their work! Once we squared away the financing with insurance and the bank (which did not go smoothly, thanks to horrible communication from the bank), the actual roof replacement work was fantastic, including attention to detail, fixing a few minor issues, and clean-up. The supervisor Sal was a standout liaison, handling every concern pleasantly and efficiently. The team of roofing folks took the job seriously and really seemed to care about their work! Highly recommend Shake Guys!
Our experience with Sal and the crew from Shake Guys was excellent. The crew was respectful. There was almost no damage to our lawn and landscaping. They kept things clean and picked up continuously. They fully met our expectations.
The Shake Guys were very communicative with our project! Both Chris in sales and Josh as the project manager were terrific to work with. Even when “issues” arose they were rectified successfully. I would definitely recommend this company just as they were recommended to me by a neighbor.
This is a great company that stands behind their product. They're experienced, professional and dedicated. The workers are proud of the company they work for and provide a great product. Cant recommend them enough. Thanks Shake Guys for a great experience!
Shake guys was great to work with! Professional from start to finish. Charlie and Tyler were extremely helpful, explained the process thoroughly and were communicative through the whole process. The team did our roof in 90 plus degree heat and it looks amazing! Strongly recommend this company!
Shake Guys were fantastic to work with. I just had roof treatment done for my cedar shake roof. The inspection, quote, scheduling, and the actual work on the day was all managed really well. And they were proactive in enquiring about satisfaction and feedback on the work. I would recommend and go back to them again.
The Shake Guys exceeded my expectations. Starting with Josh Laz and ending with Project Manager Josh F., the crew performed safely, diligently and with real attention to the details. I recommend them for sure.
Sal and his crew performed like a well synchronized team. We were fully informed of the process. Sal and his crew were prompt, efficient, courteous, responsive and informative.
The structure and landscaping were well protected during the construction and installation of the new roof. Enhanced details were added or modified at our request. Sal kept us fully informed at every step of the project. Sal was very patient and responsive - timely and content.
The grounds were fully cleaned of debris daily.
We highly recommend Shake Guys for their performance in the installation of our new roof.
We must also acknowledge Chris Paulus, who, on a routine inspection of our roof, identified and assessed damage to the roof unbeknownst to us. Chris was very resourceful in working with our insurance company in documenting the need to replace the roof. Chris was continuously available to us through the contracting, construction and finishing stages. Chris is very knowledgeable about roof construction and selection of materials.
Not only do The Shake Guys do an excellent job installing high quality roofs, flashing and gutter, but they also stand behind their work. More than 7 years after the initial installation a very minor problem arose as a result of an architectural design flaw. The Shake Guys fixed it quickly, correctly and at no charge. That's the difference that a solid neighborhood roofing business like The Shake Guys makes in contrast to itinerant installers who disappear after the initial work is done.
Shake Guys did a great job. Ryan B got the ball rolling and it was hassle free from there. Project manager, Josh F, made sure the work was done correctly, efficiently and ahead of schedule. No complaints.
Guys were great! Josh and Connor there the whole time. Informative, courteous and timely. Project came out perfect I can not see how one could do better. If u need roof work-these are the guys, “The Shake Guys”
The team we had from start to finish has been outstanding! Max was our sales person to start and he did a great job walking us through the situation and working with our insurance company. Once the team got onsite, our project manager Sal was proactive and thorough in communicating with us daily on the work happening at the house. And the team is n the roof worked very hard, was very clean and organized and did great work. Would recommend Shake Guys!
We had a great experience with Shake Guys. Our project manager Sal Arellano was terrific. He kept the job on schedule and informed us on what to expect.
Thank you shake guys for a thorough inspection and honest assessment of our roof’s condition. Professional, courteous and prompt. We will be using you for all our future roofing needs
Shake guys are the most professional roofers I have ever come across. I talked to multiple companies and Connor at Shake guys was the most detailed oriented person I spoke with. He made me feel confident from our first conversation and my roof is now the best in the neighborhood. Highly recommend!
The Shake Guys Team, managed by Sal, was absolutely superb. In only three days, they replaced the entire roof of our 6000 sq ft house. The team worked seamlessly together, removing the shingles section by section, preparing the roof and then installing the new shingles. As a rule, there were 9-12 roofers working in almost military precision in 12 hour days to install the new roof. Great care was taken to prevent any of the old shingle debris from damaging the house or the grounds. 1-2 employees were constantly engaged in cleanup. Bottom
Line, we were EXTREMELY IMPRESSED with Shake Guys and would recommend both Sal and his team without the slightest reservation. They worked very hard, were very conscientious, were very courteous, were very organized and very neat. No customer could possibly ask for more.
Lou Hughes
Chad was absolutely awesome. He was able to quickly assess our situation and explain what needed to be done. He answered all of my questions and was extremely knowledgeable about the materials and process. Would definitely recommend Shake Guys!
Great service provided to me by Wes and Connor. Always kept me in the loop and every one of their employees were very pleasant. Even came back a couple of times to make sure my yard was free of debris. Love my new roof! Thanks Shake Guys!
We are very happy with our interaction with Shake Guys. We were abruptly dropped by our insurance company, specifically because we have a cedar roof. No matter that it was only 7 years old. Our new insurance company inspector thought he saw some loose shingles and requested an inspection. Enter Ethan at Shake Guys! We had them out to identify any issues and inform us about any maintenance needs. They provided us with a free comprehensive inspection fully complete with drone pictures to help us know of any concerns. Ethan helped us identify best next steps to keep our roof in great condition. In addition, he was super communicative and service oriented, something I highly value. I mentioned we were working with Shake Guys to a realtor friend and she said she always refers people to them for roofing needs. They have won my business going forward!
replaced our roof with the Shake Guys and couldn’t be happier! It looks great, the work was completed before the estimate date, the crew worked around the clock to get the most of every sunny day, the team was very professional, left the house clean, and it was not as loud as I was expecting. Ryan Pettit was great working with our insurance company to get the most out of our claim. Josh was our project manager and was always reachable, very responsive and took care of every detail.
Thank you a lot, guys!
Sal and his crew did a fantastic job on our roof. They worked hard, non stop, were respectful, and the end product is great. Sal’s communication in particular made the experience smooth and transparent . Great work!
We had our total roof replaced with the Shake Guys and could not be happier. We replaced our cedar shake with Brava Lake Forest shingles and it looks amazing. Austin and his crew were top notch and did a fantastic job. Austin could give a master class in customer service and satisfaction. His attention to detail, availability to answer questions and communication were the best I've ever experienced in working with many contractors. I highly recommend Shake Guys if you are considering having work done on your roof.
Sal and his crew were great!! Hard working, helpful, roof looks great and they did a nice job of cleaning up.
I don't often give reviews but felt this one was very much earned by Shake Guys, especially working with Josh Laz as my initial contact and Josh F as the project manager throughout the installation.
The Shake Guys organization did a great job. We were dreading doing our roof, but Josh Fernandez and his crew were professional, responsive and thoughtful. They cleaned up after every day, were organized and did a good job of protecting the rest of our home while they were working on our home. I highly recommend Josh Fernandez. I most also give recognition to Josh Laz the salesman and estimator from Shake who has been helpful this entire process and been responsive to our questions and concerns.
The Shake Guys crew were amazing! They worked literally around the clock each day with no breaks and pleasant attitudes. Our project manager, Josh F. Was in contact with me each day and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. Couldn’t have asked for more from him.
Every single person in their staff was polite, fast and super flexible. Josh F. was a great project manager, he took care of us as if we were the only client! Responded within seconds, and came to check-in regularly. No project goes on without a hiccup, and that’s when you see how professional a person is. Would recommend Shake Guys to anyone wanting a new roof or repairs!
Shake Guys did a fantastic job of working with my insurance company, providing a detailed assessment of the issues and replacing my roof! I couldn't be happier with their work and our Project Manager, Sal Arellano : - )
Juan, Tommy and their crew were awesome. I highly recommend Shake Guys. They were very responsive before, during and after the service. They were very professional, and the job was done well (and on time and on budget). They made it all very easy for me. Thank you!
I could not be happier with either the Shake Guys or the work that they did for me. Originally, I contacted them to provide the yearly treatment for the cedar shake roof on my recently acquired house. Various issues arose and we agreed that replacing to the roof with more sustainable, fire resistant, fabricated materials would be the best choice for my needs. Their patience with the process, the HOA, and weather have been beyond expectations.
Because we had numerous delays from my end, I worked with many of the staff at Shake Guys between my first calls in August 2023 & completion in April 2024. Josh and his team were amazing in their work & interactions with me.They did a beautiful job, left my property in pristine shape, and worked with numerous other trades to coordinate completion in less time than anticipated. I could not be happier. Each contact has been terrific
Me and my husband had a very good experience with Shake Guys, specially Max M as our sales person and Josh F as our project manager. All parts of the project (roof cedar shingles, copper and gutters) turned out above expectation.
Exactly 1 year ago we had a hail storm that practically exploded many of the cedar shakes on our roof. The roof looked so bad a production company literally contacted us and asked if they could pay us to film a horror/comedy movie at our house. Who are you going to call? Chad T and the Shake Guys. Chad took over communicating with the insurance company so we hardly had to do anything. I’m not exaggerating when I say the insurance company sent 5 crews out to inspect the roof to make sure they would cover it. Chad met with them every time to make sure there was no funny business. He got them to cover the whole project and replace the inferior cedar shakes with hail proof/flame resistant Davinci shakes. They look great and are much safer.
Josh F took over when the installation for the project started. He and his team were incredibly hard working and respectful of our property. I think it took around 8 days in total (it was a large project) and the only day they didn’t work was when there was lightning. I couldn’t believe how fast they were and what a great job they did. The only downside was I felt like less of a man watching them run up the 30 foot ladder with a full stack of shakes while I could hardly move a stack 15 feet on flat ground. Not a bad thing though!
All in all I could not recommend the Shake Guys more. From start to finish you will not find a better company to work with. Thanks Chad T and Josh F and the entire crew! You did awesome!
Josh L was great at working with our insurance company to get the most out of our claim. Josh F was an excellent project manager. He was in communication with us often and completed the project on time. Would highly recommend working with them again and our roof looks great!
We recently had our roof replaced by The Shake Guys. Everything in this project, from start to finish, has gone well. Chris Paulus, who initially assessed our damaged roof, has been a tremendous help to us throughout the entire process. He was always available to answer questions and to interface with everyone. His expertise, follow-through, and consistently sunny attitude made the experience a pleasant one. Our project manager, Josh F., was on site daily and was always available to answer our frequent questions and texts. The construction crew worked very long hours daily, cleaned up the site every evening, and did a very expert job installing our Da Vinci composite shake roof.
Clearly, The Shake Guys is a very well-run organization. We received several estimates to replace our roof, none of the others gave such a thorough inspection. We very highly recommend The ShakeGuys.
Susan and Michael, Riverwoods Il.
Shake Guys did an amazing job working with our insurance company. They were able to get our roof and gutters covered after our insurance company initially denied the claim. The communication was top notch and our home looks like new again after the install. TYVM Shake Guys!
Chad T was extremely helpful with evaluating our roofing project and proposing reliable solutions. Chad was highly responsive and well educated on roofing products, and had several great suggestions for making our project better.
I would highly recommend The Shake Guys. Our insurance company dropped us because of our existing cedar shake roof. So to get reinsured we decided to go with a composite shake roofing material.This was not an inexpensive project. But Chris walked thru all the options of the various brands and gave us addresses of completed projects to go look at. We chose to go with the Brava Shake as it was the most realistic looking. Sal our PM on the job was also great as was the installation team. All the crew members were polite and VERY hard working. We are extremely pleased with the outcome and this we bevthe last roof the house will need.
I don't review often...but Shake Guys deserves it. Chad helped me a couple years ago with a no cost solution to a leaking roof. I told him I wouldn't do business with anyone but him in the future. When it was time to replace half my shake roof via insurance he held my hand through the process and got an outstanding approval on my behalf. Julio and his crew were exceptional. Call these guys in for a consultation and see for yourself.
Chad was fantastic - professional and well spoken! We appreciate his consultative approach and thank Shake Guys for helping us. We would definitely reach out to them in the future if we were to put a new roof on our house.
Josh F and the Shake Guys crew did a wonderful job. We really appreciated that they replaced our roof at a time that was convenient for us. The cleanup was done without damaging our plants and shrubs. The roof looks beautiful. We also want to thank Max M for his expertise and help in making this project happen. We highly recommend the Shake Guys.
Josh was great to work with! Can’t recommend them enough. They did a great job, completed the work efficiently and timely and ensured we were satisfied.
We had some storm related issues with our cedar shake roof. I had the pleasure to work with Chad. From the start it was quite apparent that Chad has a deep concern & takes pride in his company. It was also apparent that he has vast knowledge & experience with cedar shake roofs. Throughout the process he was very detailed, committed, responsive & generous with his time as needed. His care & dedication in assisting me made me feel he was more like I was a personal friend. I would recommend the Shake Guys to anyone in need of their services without question. With Chad’s oversight & dedication to his company you are in great hands!

Shake Guys is a highly recommended roofing company with outstanding people and product selections! Just needed a repair project and Project Manager Josh F did an excellent job of assessing the issue and leading the repair team in a timely manner. A REAL GO TO TEAM!!
I bought a home with a shake roof and wanted to have it inspected before winter. I found a company with decent reviews through Yelp and a guy came out to look at the roof. Apologetically, he gave me the bad news that the roof needed to be replace for approximately $70,000. He said he had no reason to lie to me about it because he was not paid based on sales; he was just a specialist. I almost lost my mind.
My friend suggested I call Shake Guys. Ethan came out and looked at our roof and said it would cost a few hundred dollars to replace some old, splintered shingles. I have used Shake Guys ever since. They are an honest company.
Shake guys were great to work with—easy, good communication, and all promises were kept. Sal kept me updated every step of the way.
Josh and his crew did a great job and went the extra mile to make sure I was completely satisfied upon completion.
Josh was very professional and great communicator. Always promptly answered my text and phone calls. Hard working crew and did great job cleaning up.. Everything looks great and Josh was good at following up. Happy with final product.
Great installation overall. Hardworking, diligent crew. Sal Arellano was the project manager and he was terrific. Connor was my sales contact and he helped all the way through the project.I recommend Shake Guys, Sal and Connor would use them again.
