"JR came and assessed my roof. He was very honest with describing to me what my real world options were, and did not try and up-sell me into services I did not need. They did a great job repairing my near end-of-life roof and I will definitely be hiring them again in the next year or two for a full roof replacement."

"We have worked with "Sela Roofing and Re-modelling" for multiple occasions and projects staring from the year of 1997. They have always exceeded our expectation with their service and product quality. We recently experienced the same commitment last year (2017) after last year’s storm. I will highly recommend them for any roofing/siding or window installation or remodeling projects to get the best for your bucks. Das Family from Blaine"

"Rep came out after being provided with incorrect address, indicated it was too hot and the roof was too steep. Also indicated the 3 story height in the back was too much and that another crew had to come out for inspection. Was told I would receive either a phone call or email to reschedule and received neither."

"I called doug (owner of company) and told him I was having alot of leaks in my home due to the melting snow on my roof. He sent Thor Anderson and Doug's father out a couple of days later to remove the snow and ice. It was a huge job and they removed a ton of ice and snow. Thor then steamed the roof clean without damaging our shingles. He worked very hard in sub arctic temperatures and was still smiling with a frozen beard when he was finished. He didn't charge me for an extra 45 miniutes of work and EVEN gave me the Angies list discount. Important to me as I'm a nurse is they used safety harnesses. Thankyou Angie's List!"

"22nd Century Roofing is great to work with. What I thought was just loose facia turned out to be rotting wood. Tyler from 22nd Century Roofing came out to determine the scope of work. The scope of work was very detailed to include photos. He also made sure that new aluminum facia would match my existing facia. The cost was around what I was expecting and there was never any pressure to get the work scheduled. The install crew did a great job and were very professional and cleaned up after they were done."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Afton, MN

An average Cape Cod roof-raising project requires approximately two to three months from start to finish. The timeline depends on several variables, including weather conditions, contractor availability, material delivery schedules, and the specific complexity of your home's structure. The process involves multiple phases, including demolition, framing, roofing, window installation, and interior finishing. Working with an experienced contractor who provides a detailed timeline can help set realistic expectations for the project duration.

While most Cape Cod homes can accommodate roof-raising modifications, each house requires individual structural assessment. Older homes may need foundation reinforcement or wall strengthening before supporting additional weight. Factors like the existing roof framing system, load-bearing wall placement, and overall structural integrity all influence feasibility. A qualified structural engineer should evaluate your specific property before proceeding with design plans. Additionally, local zoning ordinances may restrict maximum building height or architectural modifications in certain neighborhoods.

Temporary relocation is highly recommended during a Cape Cod roof raising project. The construction process involves removing portions of your existing roof, exposing interior spaces to potential weather damage, and creating significant noise and dust. Most homeowners find temporary accommodations for the two to three-month construction period, with relocation costs ranging from $2,000 to $6,000, depending on your housing choices. If staying with family or friends isn't possible, budget for short-term rental or extended-stay hotel expenses as part of your overall project cost.

Consider roof raising when you experience severely limited headroom throughout the second floor, find yourself constantly stooping under sloped ceilings, or have minimal usable floor space due to low ceiling heights. Other indicators include inadequate natural light, poor ventilation, and difficulty accommodating standard furniture in upstairs rooms. Simple renovations can improve an attic's appearance, but cannot create additional headroom without structural modifications. A complete roof-raising project makes more sense than cosmetic renovations if you're seeking genuine second-floor living space rather than just storage improvements.

Begin your search by seeking contractors with specific experience in Cape Cod structural modifications and dormer additions. Request detailed portfolios showing similar completed projects and ask for references from previous clients with comparable work. Verify that potential contractors hold appropriate licenses and insurance coverage and understand local building codes relevant to roof raising. Interview multiple candidates, comparing price quotes and their communication style, project approach, and proposed timeline. The ideal contractor should demonstrate a thorough understanding of Cape Cod architectural characteristics and structural requirements.
