"We chose Garcia Roofing because we wanted a highly reputable, local, Louisiana licensed and insured roofing company. We had a GAF HD shingle roof installed previously, that was approximately 8 years old. Hurricane Ida winds were (my estimate as we were in our home during the storm) 130mph sustained for 6-8 hours. We considered both shingle and the standing seam metal roof for our roof replacement. We chose the standing seam metal roof as the most cost effective long term solution. Garcia Roofing installed a 26 gauge standing seam metal roof for us. We’re very pleased with our new roof. It’s beautiful and very well installed. We chose the medium bronze color. The installation crew did a superior job. We had to replace 36 CDX plywood sheets to fix the damaged roof deck. Additionally, we had facia/soffit repairs included. We highly recommend Garcia Roofing and their standing seam metal roof. Thanks Garcia Roofing for taking excellent care of us!"

"Repairs to my Mother's roof were good, survived a 4 inch rain fall in two hours. The work on the workshop went very well. It started to rain about an hour before completion of the job but the guys kept on working and finished. The temperature had dropped a lot but they kept right on until the job was done. In the dark and rain they cleaned up the site very well."

"Jeff has done several jobs for us, and we have always been happy with the results. This time, though, he went above and beyond. He came to our house on a Saturday to consult on a window repair. As he was leaving, I casually asked him about a plumbing issue we were having. Several hours later, Jeff was still at our house, determined to resolve the issue. He stayed well past dark working outside and sought out a friend of a friend for advice and assistance. Since then, he has reached out to us and provided follow up to make sure the problem is permanently resolved. We appreciate his tenacity and breadth of experience. We will most definitely continue to hire Jeff."

"I found AHC on Angie's list after having such a negative experience with a previous contractor (2008-09) whom we heard about through word of mouth… an entire house renovation which resulted in immediate exterior railing failures and badly deteriorating decks/paint/decking among other things. With multiple decks and railings now necessitating demolition and rebuild, I wanted to make sure we didn't have a repeat of this earlier experience, so signed up for Angie's list and contacted AHC because of their excellent ratings. Our experience with AHC could not have been more different than our experience with the earlier contractor: There were no surprises or excuses - Elbert's team was extremely knowledgeable, well organized, respectful, stayed on schedule & budget, was always available to answer questions and give suggestions, worked around our schedules and provided high quality work with proper exterior and quality materials. If the elements interfered (June rain!) requiring any adjustment, they always came back quickly and took care of it without extra fees. Their work ethic was one of excellence. The carpentry and painting are beautiful, something we now feel confident will last for years. We called Elbert and his team back for other exterior repairs shortly afterwards - and again were extremely pleased. I recommend them highly."

"Our experience with Mr. Gilmore was beyond my expectations.  We called to a get a quote and he was here the next day to assess our needs.  The next day he was here with a detailed estimate.  He went out of his way to meet with our insurance adjuster and walk through the required work with him as well.  Once work began, he was quick, efficient, and thorough.  He provided us with proof of insurance and licenses, guaranteed his work in writing and overall did a remarkable job.  He took pictures when he was on the roof so that I could see the "before and after", and also so that I would have something to present to the insurance company.  The interior ceiling work was flawless; covering the water stains, taping and repairing a crack, re-applying texture and painting the whole ceiling.   I would not hesitate to contact Mr Gilmore for any future work needed in my house."

"Wonderful!! OM&T first sends out a rep to assess what your needs are. They have a variety of skilled workers who work for them. So they don’t send an electrician or plumber to replace deck boards. Once your needs are assessed and how many workers it will take to complete the job he will send an estimate. I have been very satisfied with the prices - the quality of work and the workers. My various jobs averaged about $450 each. The latest for cutting up the hot tub and hauling it off took 2 workers 2 hours for $480."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Barataria, LA

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.
