"Extremely professional. Quote was detailed and complete. I had 3 estimates done -- this was the only roofer that took the time to go into the attic and up onto the roof, which produced a more accurate estimate. The company gave us a realistic understanding of when the work would be done. Work was done exactly as stated."

"I have a small roof that is in good shape and wanted a professional roofer to reseal around the chimney flashing and replace any missing or damaged shingles prior to sale. <br>Bill not only resealed the flashing but also resealed the other vents and caulked a crack in the chimney mortar.  He carried shingles in several colors with him so the one or two shingles he replaced were a close match to the existing shingles. <br>Additionally, he wrote an assessment of the roof on his invoice that I will be able to use during the sale. <br>Quite a lot more than expected and I will absolutely call him when needed again. <br>"

"ARHT expertly guided me through the entire roof and gutter install. Since the house required additional tree trimming and soffit repairs they provided suggestions for subcontractors. Overall the house looks better and no more roof leaks!"

"The service went well. HF Contracting, Inc. worked hard into the night to complete my roof installation. Mr. Flores was easy to work with. While my job was small in comparison to many others, it was treated with the same respect and quality as if it were a much bigger job."

"They arrived slightly late on the first day due t traffic. They installed two of the windows. They were perfectionists regarding getting the windows level and plumb. The attention to detail paid off as the windows work perfectly and look great. They finished the remaining two windows on the second day. Both the exterior work and the interior trim look great. They were polite and professional. They cleaned up their work areas each day.  <br />"

"This company did a great job on our roof. From start to finish, we had a good experience with this company. We actually had requested and received a good and detailed estimate last year, summer 2018, from the company founder. I appreciated the fact that they specified quality materials. (We also received estimates from other companies, but these were not as detailed and/or the quality of materials was not as good. Prices were generally in the same ballpark for most of the estimates.) We did not follow through with any of the roofing work last year. This year, we looked into roofing again, and requested an updated estimate from Pence. We found that the company is under new management (but still in the same family as the founder) and their construction crews, who have been with them for a long time, have not changed. Our interaction with the new management, specifically Rob, was very positive. Communication was good, they reviewed last year's estimate and ultimately did not change anything in it. We discussed shingle color options, as there were several options we were considering. Rob brought different full-size shingle samples out to our house a few times (not all the colors were immediately available as samples). We had already had our gutters replaced several years ago, so we kept our reasonably new "old" gutters and downspouts. They did not install new ones, but they did remove and replace ours carefully, and when reinstalling the "old" gutters, they did fix one that was improperly angled by the first gutter installer (not Pence). Ultimately, they completed our roof in about half a day - faster than I anticipated. Rain was forecast for the afternoon, but they must have had all their crew members working on our roof that day. They ended up getting it done that day just in time before the rain came. The new roof held up nicely under the immediate rain test, and it looks just as lovely as it performs. Since the crew left quickly that day due to the rain, Rob came by later to run the magnet over the yard to pickup any nails left on the ground. (We also had siding work done later by this same company, but I have that as a separate review.) All around, I highly recommend this company for roofing. They are honest, responsive, and do quality work. I also appreciate that there was no sales pressure. Rob is a decent, honest, and apparently easy-going person who is very nice to work with."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Cheltenham, 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.
