Cascade Roofing: Experience

The first of our top four reasons why Cascade Roofing is the best roofing company you can select, is Experience. It takes years for a Foreman and his crew members to train, install and evaluate the many technical aspects of installing a roof system. From the ever changing venting stipulations to the updated Federal safety requirements, the knowledge required to be a roofing contractor today is quite different than it was 20 years ago.

Cascade Roofing started in business over 60 years ago by serving the Tigard, Beaverton and Portland areas. It has grown over time to include Hillsboro, Tualatin, Wilsonville, West Linn, and Milwaukie. One of the most important factors in choosing a company should be experience and gaining experience takes time. The average roofing company in Portland will last in business for about five and a half years – going out of business just when they begin to acquire some real world roofing experience. The unlucky customers whose roofs they were learning on is no longer protected with their installation warranty.

Experience matters, because the more time you have installing roofing materials, fixing dry rot, and following manufacture requirements, the longer the roofing system will last and perform. So what does 60 years of experience get you from Cascade Roofing: a team of trained roofing professionals that have seen and repaired almost everything an Oregon roof has to offer plus years of training on how to install shingles correctly.

Some companies will try to cut costs to make up for their lack of experience and win you over on price. But Cascade Roofing knows that a few dollars saved today doesn’t mean a lot when your roof starts to leak or needs attention in a few years and all you get is a disconnected phone line. You want a company that has been around the block more than just a few times, and that company is Cascade Roofing.
