"Excellent workmanship and attention to detail. Owner Chris was very responsive and addressed all my questions. His crew arrived early and did a complete tear down and new roof in 1 day. Careful attention to removal and replacement shingles under step flashing, even caulked the downspouts removed/replaced during roofing. End of job Chris went around to check the work. Highly recommend."

"Lost some ridgeline shingles during a recent storm. Called a few roofing repair outfits. Albana, in the midst of coronovirus and with a limited crew, made it the next day for the quote AND repair. They really went above and beyond and it was a huge relief to get the job done. However, even if they WEREN'T able to make it the next day, Sonny and Al were fantastic and we'd still recommend them. Professional, quality work. A family business. Will definitely call them again for any roofing needs."

"I couldn't be more pleased. My House and garage roofs came out amazing. everyone was professional, pleasant and knowledgeable. The crew worked together with extreme precision which resulted in a finished product that I couldn't be more pleased with. Needing a new roof is a large and scary project and they successfully took my fear away and replaced it with the utmost satisfaction. Thanks to all that were part of the team that transformed my house and garage!"

"Gunner Roofing has an excellent team that completed my house siding project. As certified installers of James Hardie, they were professional from start to finish! Andrew was extremely knowledgeable of the product and created a spectacular design and assisted w/ the financing of my project. He was always available to answer all questions. The Project Manager Anthony communicated daily with project updates and was extremely responsive to questions and addressed all concerns in a timely manner. The workers were exceptional as they always arrived early and worked late to ensure completion of the work. Really appreciated their attention to detail! I highly recommend this company!"

"I had roof damage after a major wind storm in March of 2018. This caused water to leak into my attic and down into the second floor of my Multi-Family. Originally the insurance company claimed that only half of the roof needed to be replaced, but Chris identified and explained why the damage had been more severe than originally thought. That kind of attention to detail and consultative service is what drew me to work with Millstream and Chris in the first place. In very short order, he had a team at the house and in a single day had completed work. It was so well done that I used them to install gutters on top of the roof work, which was equally as flawless. Things that stood out to me: > Service was outstanding - taking time to explain the why and how behind the what they were going to do. > Proactive and anticipatory consulting that made the job painless for me > Easy to work with - I could communicate with him via a variety of channels (email, phone, text) which made the job easier to manage. I wholeheartedly recommend this company if you need someone reliable and trustworthy."

"We needed a quote for a roof for our insurance. Rich was great, and he noted where we needed a new skylight (which was accurate), which another had not. He provided a detailed quote that broke-out everything (including the skylight)."

"<p>They were on time every morning at 7am sharp.  Most of the roof had 2 layers of underlayment which needed to be removed.  One part of the roof had 4 or 5 layers which needed to be removed.  They were here for 4 days and the site was spotless each evening.<br /> <br />I was amazed at how well the work crew worked as a team and their enthusiasm was appreciated.  For the most part, they treated my home as if it was their own.  The work was very hard but I got the strong opinion that they truly liked their job.<br /> <br />Once all roofing material was removed, plywood was put in place over the 1825 metal roof for a smooth surface.  Ice and Water sheets then had to be put over the entire roof, due to the 3/12 pitch, with 3 tab shingles put above them.  Once the roof was completed, 6" gutters were installed by A-1 Gutters in Manchester in a 3 hour timeframe.  Their work was likewise fast and flawless.<br /> <br />DZEN's quote came in within the same range as other roofing companies but, contrary to the experiences of other owners of historical homes that I know, the job was performed in a relatively flawless manner.  More importantly, Dean and Tom listened to every question I had about the 200 year old roof and accommodated my concerns every time.<br /> <br />Historical homes are often difficult to work on.  My house has been totally renovated over the past 3 years and I waited to have the roof done last because I knew it was going to be a very big undertaking.  But DZEN Residential Roofing made it seem like an easy job though I truly know it was not.<br /> <br />For personalized care, attention to duty, and overall quality... they hit it out of the ballpark on this one.</p> <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Cromwell, CT

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.
