"Drew, Andy, Ed, and Ralph were awesome to work with, very professional. Glad I picked this team; there were many that came by. Drew’s crew came everyday prior to 7am, and clean up every night prior to leaving. Drew is an excellent leader, he is very meticulous, and knows exactly what he is doing. Best of all, he is very patient with me, taking the time educating me about roof installations, reviewing procedures. I sense that he is genuinely concern about my concerns. we love our new roof!

"Very impressed with responsiveness, professionalism, technology, and value provided by Gunner Roofing. The copper flashing was pulling away from around my chimney and looked like it was in need of repair or replacement. I had previously worked with another well reviewed roofing company on Angie's List that missed my scheduled appointment to examine my chimney flashing. So I was very pleased when Andrew from Gunner showed up exactly when promised, and I was quite fascinated with his use of a drone to take precise aerial photographs of the work to be performed from all angles - a rather tech savvy approach. Gunner provided a detailed estimate within hours, that was only 1/3 the cost of the estimate I ultimately received from that other roofer. Gunner Roofing completed the work on time, and did a very satisfactory job. This was a relatively modest project, but based on my experience, I hope to use Gunner Roofing when it comes time to redo my entire roof."

"A great decision to use the company. Always returned my calls and emails. If he said he was going to call or email, either himself or someone from the company did. He was on time every morning. His work ethic and the work performed was excellent and he went above and beyond. I would use him again and plan on doing so in the future for other home repairs and projects."

"I knew my garage roof needed cleaning but I never thought I had moss growing on my house roof. The sun (finally) came out one day while I was looking at my roof. The light hit the roof just at the right spot for me to see that every shingle needed cleaning. I was shocked as I could not see the moss before. Paul did a great job. I plan to ask for him when I need the gutters and house cleaned."

"Tom (owner/manager) coordinated with company that installed windows so all work proceeded in timely manner, making it easier for us as homeowners, as well as preventing unnecessary weather exposure. <br /> The 3 man crew, with Bill in charge, worked very well together. They cleaned up EVERY day and were very sensitive to home owner's input (closed gates with every trip in case Frankie the dog was out in the yard, kept radio at low volume and asked first to use it, kept driveway clear for home owner's use, NO bad language and always very pleasant). <br /> Owner, Tom, was on site nearly every day to check on work and he and Bill communicated by phone in between visits. Tom also checked with homeowner frequently and was happy to address any concerns. <br /> Impressive to me was an act of kindness regarding 2 active bird nests in old attic vent which needed to be covered. These guys built a little platform, placed it in a nearby Yew tree, then moved the nests to their new home! The parents of the birds soon followed and all was well. I don't know how many workers would have taken that extra step...or even cared! but these guys did. Great job. <br /> Bill and his crew worked all day ...no lengthy breaks, always on site, always on time. They were quick to describe how the siding, insulating process worked, how pieces fit together, how the cutting machine worked or whatever this inquisitive home owner asked them, and always consulted me when there was a questionable issue. <br /> I thought these guys were great and would certainly recommend them. <br /> <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Canastota, NY

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.
