"Fantastic My wife and I were having a very difficult time finding a local outfit to replace our leaking roof before winter fully set in. The quotes we received for a spring job were very high. I called Tim at Black Ox thinking he would be too far away or also fully booked. I was surprised to hear back that he would be able to get it done before the winter and his quote was much more reasonable than the larger outfits. In short Tim got the job done when he said he would and at the price quoted. He saw that we would need some additional insulation and simply got that done as well. He and his crew were here and gone in a shockingly few number of days, even working in bitter cold. The roof is spectacular and the house so much warmer. It was almost as if they were never here and this perfect standing seam roof magically appeared almost over night. I assume he is able to do this because he does one type of roof only and because he spends all day at work in the field. Do not expect lengthy conversations with Tim. If he says he will get it done at a certain time at a certain price he will. Send in your deposit and be patient. Tim is a very busy man and actually up on roofs working rather than on the phone or computer chatting. It is refreshing to work with someone in such a straight forward manner, but you must trust him. In return you will have a beautiful new standing seam roof of the best materials, perfectly installed by a master of the craft, at an unbeatable price. We can recommend Black Ox without any hesitation and feel very lucky to have discovered this treasure."

"Jeff gave me a price for replacement of double rib roof material with standing seam. Also included in the job was gutter replacement and gutter covers. Roof was replaced and job went very well, in and out in a day. A crew came a few weeks later and replaced the gutters and added the covers. As it happened the covers were unable to divert heavier rainwater into the gutters, and Jeff sent a crew to swap the covers out with a slightly different design, although he only had a few panels and could not replace all of them. It took a while but eventually a crew did come and replace the panels and these covers work much better than the first set. I would recommend HP Roofing to anyone who were to ask. Very professional job."

"Glen did a great job, patching damage sheet rock before painting. It looks amazing - you can tell that it was done professionally. This is the second time we have hired Glen, he previously did repairs to sheet rock prior to painting our parlor, bedroom and en suite bath, entry foyer, staircase, and upper landing. He does excellent work, he is honest and reliable, and he cleans up before he leaves for the day."

"It went really well. Kevin and his crew carefully removed all of the slate shingles from the roof and kept them in neat bundles on the ground until they could take them away. The roof was not easy with four gable ends and steep pitches. They were very responsive - a strong wind loosened some of the underlayment the weekend before they began installing the standing seam and they came right over to reattach it. The project was on time and on budget and the roof looks good and keeps the wet stuff out. Kevin is straightforward, hardworking and reliable."

"My home has a 100+ year old slate roof in disrepair and several generations of cheap fixes. I contacted Leeland's for an opinion on repairs. The inspector was extremely thorough, provided pictures, and gave me his candid opinion on the remaining life of my roof based on the condition of my slates and flashings. He ultimately wrote up an estimate to paint the rusted metal valleys, replace several dozen broken slates, repair rotted wood, and install new copper chimney flashing and a cricket. It was a difficult decision to repair vs replace the roof, but I never felt any pressure from them one way or another. I agreed to the repairs originally, but ultimately changed my mind and just decided to replace the roof. I'm sure this was a hassle to go back and forth with me, but they were very patient, and ultimately returned my deposit. I really appreciate their honesty and customer service, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for maintenance on their slate roof. <br />"

"I had found broken shingles on the ground after the last wind storm. The technician found the damaged area showed me where the water damage had just begun in the attic and completed the repair. I had also showed him some water damage at the side of several of my windows. he exposed the window and found the window were installed with some of the original shipping packing not removed causing a fault in the install and allowing water to enter. Several of my neighbors reported the same condition, and diagnosis  Santana's went the extra mile and were very professional. I would recommend them to anyone needing roofing, window or door work <br />"

"We love the completed bathroom and especially the shower! Quotes were spot on and you can depend on Rusty doing what he says he will do. As their website states, they are not the cheapest, but if you want great value, the money is worth it. We were so pleased with previous work on our kitchen, we wanted to use them again. Highly advise contacting them well before the work is required due to their full schedule. Rusty reviewed our plans, and made recommendations. He did most of the construction and plumbing where possible. Demo was completed quickly and cleanly. Work was professional, high quality (especially the tile work), timely and complete. Sub-contractors (HVAC, counter top provider/installers, mason/tile installer, electrician, plumber, glass installer) were reliable, professional, pleasant, high quality and attentive. Its the little things that make the difference. Everyone took time to explain the work, point out important points and were highly attentive and courteous. Rusty and his sub-contractors were always willing to go the extra distance that made the difference between good work and exceptional work. For example, the tile installer suggested a border for the shower and with his help, we selected the product that was installed. At then end of each day, trash was removed, tools stored neatly and area made clean. Rusty was always contactable by email or phone and came by often to review sub-contract work or touch base with us. As a somewhat DIY person, I could relate to the work being done and appreciate what it took to do a professional job. Challenges (very few) were solved quickly. The factory incorrectly sent the shower glass without the towel rack, so the installers used the present one so we could use the shower and will install the corrected piece when it arrives. There is no question we would use Rusty and his sub-contractors again for additional remodeling work. Highly recommended!"

"They were fine. Jonathan Mayo is the proprietor. He was prompt and he was polite. He did just what he said he would. I would certainly call him again. He was a very nice person. It went beautifully. He arrived promptly at 9 when he said he would. He climbed right up on the roof. He brought shingles because my roof is too old to get the same shingles. He had some similar ones. It took him about an hour and that was it. He came down and left. I was very very pleased. The only thing was that I was thinking about things to do to make the house look good to sell it in a few years. Being a businessman, he asked me if I had considered aluminum siding because that would spruce up the house. You would expect an exteriors person to say that. Of course I don't want aluminum siding because I have got a nice wood clapboard house. That was the only thing that he suggested and my house doesn't need it. Aside from that, the job was wonderful. His work was wonderful. I would not even take that as a prompt because you would expect somebody to recommend other things that they do. He does a lot of things. His card said roofing, siding, decking, windows, skylight repair, chimneys, and roof shoveling. He pretty much does it all for the exterior of a house. I was very pleased with the price. I had nothing else to compare it with. I didn't even bother asking anybody else."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Canaan, NH

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.
