"<p>The job was done quickly and professionally.  </p> <p>Two crew members came out and worked on the chimney.  They replaced a section of the chimney that had started flaking and falling off.  You can't even tell there was work done to it.  The brick is perfectly matched.  They did the job in about 4 hours.  It is absolutely perfect.</p> <p>The roofers came a few days later and replaced the roof.  They took off the old roof , swept off all the debris, laid down an underlayment and then installed the new shingles.  The crew was fast, courteous and efficient.  The project was completed in one day, including clean-up.</p> <p>I would recommend Politz Enterprises for roofing and gutter projects for the quality workmanship and fair prices they provide.  The professionalism and work ethic of the work crews is an asset to the company.</p> <p><br /></p> <p><br /></p> <br />"

"My install was completed flawlessly and I couldn't be happier! Both my siding and windows were installed by Jose's crew and done very professionally. I will hire Advance in a heartbeat for other work that I may need done in the future."

"I hire these guys every year - they do a great job, and even haul the leaves away with them (I had expected them on the ground by the gutters! I also wasn't sure if I had more or less than the official linear feet of gutters allowed, or if one of the roofs would be too high, but they didn't say a thing about either..."

"I think the guys did an excellent job!! Tom was very quick in his response to my initial inquiry...He came out the very next day to do the inspection...Once the job was started both Tom and his workers were very professional making sure they met every need of the job and going above and beyond on the exterior of the house by doing some painting to make sure everything else tied into the work they had done!! Truly appreciated that part of the job....I will definitely be using his services from this point on...I felt his pricing was very good and fair. I received a earlier inspection/estimate where the pricing for the roof was the exact as Toms minus the fixing of the piping which the other company never mentioned..This led me to believe that Toms inspection was more in depth and he also sent me video of what needed to be prepared..."

"This is the first time I have used Angie's List for any repairs on my home and was skeptical at first (because it just seemed too easy) but it was very refreshing to work with Kris Konstruction and work with a company that provides great service. <br /> I reviewed several companies and received several quotes, but with the combination of the Angie's List ratings and overall value, I chose Kris Konstruction.  <br /> The project began with just windows, but finally decided to go all the way and replace the roofing and siding.  From the time I requested quotes to installation, everyone showed when they stated they would, were on time and very easy to work with!  The overall products that I selected to the warranties provided me the best overall value to remodel my home. <br /> From the delivery of the products, to the installation and clean up, was top notch!  The entire project took approximately 1 1/2 weeks to complete (including a couple of rainy days).   <br /> My front and back door are on order from Kris Konstruction an just waiting for the delivery and final installation. <br /> I could not be happier with the work that has been done. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"My husband and I had Ferris replace our roof in Oct. 2018, and replace the flooring throughout our downstairs, Dec. 2018. The roofing materials that were installed were defective from the manufacturer. Cory did a fabulous job rectifying this issue when it was called her attention! Cory worked with the manufacturer getting the roofing replaced and did a great job keeping us informed as to her progress with the manufacturer. Once the new materials arrived, Ferris was back at our house within two days to replace the defective materials. We worked with Emily to replace our flooring and she was fantastic as well! Emily was very attentive and answered all of our emails and phone calls very quickly. We had some custom woodworking done with our flooring and everyone from the carpenters and painters were very professional. Everyone from our initial sales staff, to the folks in the showroom and to all of those who worked with us throughout our projects deserve a huge round of applause! We were made to feel that were were Ferris' only client and we are very appreciative of such a wonderful experience!"

"<p>They were awesome.</p> <p>I shopped windows like crazy. They have their own special window that is very nice and energy efficient. </p> <p>They scheduled the roof first. Two days later they did my siding and windows. </p> <p>Excellent cleanup. </p> <p>They were not the lowest price, but were close. About $1000 higher than the lowest bid.</p> <p>I highly recommend them to anyone need exterior work done.</p>"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Charlestown, MD

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.
