"Mel was exceptionally responsive after the recent wind storm. He came out and did emergency repairs on the roof, and then provided a written estimate for replacement of the entire roof. His prices are fair and reasonable and he provides a high quality of service. Highly recommend."

"He was very responsive to our request for a specific time to meet for the evaluation. He came to do the work promptly. Unfortunately, after his repair, the leak continued. He came back and worked on the vent above the skylight. That repair appears to have solved the problem. <br />"

"Dan and the rest of the team at Premier are probably the most professional contractors of any sort we have ever hired to do any job. Honest, hard working, attention to details and excellent craftsmanship. This was an outstanding job and we are very proud of the roof on the house. His crew was well mannered and very neat. They cleaned up the job site before leaving each evening and in fact used a powerful magnet to collect any stray nails/staples from our property when they were finished. For replacing a roof it is our opinion that you can do no better. It's too bad Premier is limited to roofing - I'd happily hire them to do other work if they offered!"

"Signature Roofing, Chris the owner and his roofing crew were a real gem to hire in September 2013. We have re- roofed a previous home and built a new home in Anchorage, so we are not new to hiring contractors and how to get the best outcome. We used Angie's List as part of our due diligence to find additional contractor names and feedback. This is where we discovered Signature Roofing. Signature was a lower bid compared to 3-4 others. The commercial insurance was in place and legal research showed a clean record in the courts. The Better Business Bureau research also showed no concerns. Chris and crew knew the trade very well. They showed up as scheduled during a very high demand time of year (in the Fall when people start to panic end-of-season). The quality of work was top-notch. We wish we had considered Signature for previous and much larger projects, believing the outcome would be great. <br />"

"It's hard to know how to rate this company. They replaced our roof a few years ago, and although the owner was contemptuous of us, seemed to have anger issues with his employees, and communicated poorly, the work was done neatly, on time, on budget, and seemingly very well. During unusual weather in 2021, water intrusion problems developed that may have been related to unique roof vent installation when they did the work. We made a friendly request for them to come back ON A PAYING BASIS to evaluate and see if they could fix the problem. This led to a bizarre explosion from the owner and an angry refusal to assist."

"Daniel of Gibson Roofing came over checked it out, gave me a price. Within one week he and his employees came over, on time, worked their 8 hours and completed the roof. They cleaned up the old roofing, etc. I had a few questions before they came over to do the job, and Daniel took his time to answer my questions. Everyone was polite, even from the office. I would use them again. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Anchorage, AK

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.
