"<p>The leaks are still occuring. Yes there is a 10 year warrenty on repairs, but I'm getting tired of keeping buckets out and having to call after major rain and finding leaks. the roof I am refering to is about 2 hours from Nashville so getting timely responses have been frustrating and having to make the calls when my calls are not returned are getting frustrating. There is evidently another process they offer to detect leaks, but they have not done it yet, I am having to ask for that process to be done. Seems there aren't enough people in the company that know enough about it, so I will have to wait until they can get the one person familiar with the process to come do it. </p> Yes I said I would hire them again only because they have been "nice" and I feel this is an isolated incident. But my patience, which I have had plenty of, is now running thin. We are working on a year now since the repair was done."

"It went really well. They did a really good of keeping me informed about what was going to happen and they showed up on the day and got the roof done, cleaned up and left. There was a supervisor on site to check out the work. I don't have any complaints. I thought they were fairly reasonable. I even called with a follow-up question and got a response immediately."

"<p>We discovered our roof was leaking in a valley where 3 roof angles come together. I called Jackson roofing on Monday and </p> asked to set up an appointment to get a repair estimate. Since I work I asked for a late afternoon time.  I was contacted a bit later by Chris who asked if it was ok for him to go by and look at it right then since he felt he could determine what was wrong without attic access.  He called back later that day to say he was not able to see anything wrong and to set up a time for a more thorough inspection the next day. We agreed on shortly after 4PM. The next day he was early and in the driveway when I pulled in. He inspected the area of the leak from the attic and determined the cause as nails driven in the bottom of the valley had rusted.  He said they could fix it for $750 and would be able to complete the job on Thursday. I said great and asked what kind of warranty they would give for the repair, and he said 90 days.  I was not happy with a 90 day warranty but figured they were not doing the whole roof and did not want to be responsible for anything adjacent to the repair they were doing. He wrote up a job order and said it would serve as my bill when they completed the work.  He left no paperwork and I signed nothing.  Thursday, late morning, Chris called to tell me they were taking longer on the job they were on and was it ok if they got to mine the next day, Friday.  I said fine.  The next morning I called to see what time he thought they would be at my house.  He said around 1PM. At 2:45 he called to tell me his supplier was out of the shingles he needed for our roof and would not have any until Tuesday the next week. I said that was not good enough and had he checked with other suppliers in the area. He said he had not.  I told him to get the job done today or I would find another roofer. He called back a little after 3 to tell me Thomas Lumber had the shingles but they closed at 3:30 and he could not get there in time.  I told him I would find another roofer <br /> I was very impressed with the promptness and communication of this contractor. I wish I could have used them but the lack of professionalism shown in not securing the materials needed prior to scheduling the job and not checking beyond the normal supply source without prompting really angered me.  I attempted to call the main office to complain but only got an computer generated answering machine. I understand I was just a repair as opposed to an entire roof and so was bumped for bigger jobs, but not having basic supplies for the job was too much for me. <br /> <br /> Follow up 8/5/2013 I had another company look at and repair the roof. They pointed out that the slope of the valley was too shallow to install shingles and they never should have been used in the first place. The slope is 1 and a half inch in12 and sure enough instructions on shingles say minimum slope is 2 inches in 12. New company was $250 cheaper and used material designed for a flat roof.  Warrantee for 10 years as opposed to 90 days!"

"Roofing Right did an amazing job on my very difficult roof repair. Aaron and Oscar were very meticulous and detailed in removing, repairing, and replacing the damaged areas and then putting a new roof in the area where the damaged had occurred. Aaron was 100% professional from beginning to end. He did what he said he would do, when he said he would do it, kept me apprised as we went through the process, and charged me what he said he would. Roofing Right sets the gold standard for other businesses. I HIGHLY recommend Aaron Carlton and Roofing Right."

"From start to finish, everything was great. I was concerned with a couple of reviews but was easily comforted once the process started. Austin, the owner, was very professional. The crew took time cover my flower beds and clean up after the roof was installed. Soon after the installation, a storm come through and I called Austin with concerns. He had no problems sending someone out to make sure everything held up properly. I will not hesitate to recommend QE Restoration. They are A+ in my book."

"My husband and I got estimates from national companies, but the bid and reviews from Red Beard Roofing were far superior. They brought curtains to hang over our window and protected plants and air conditioner. They had ropes for their men, so there were no injuries or falls. They picked up after themselves so we didn't get a flat tire. They had a designed place to put old roofing materials. They gave a bid that right on the money for our budget. The other estimates were got were ball park figures, shifting with the winds, and frankly I did not their that their out of state corporate HQ locations. When I get work done on my home it has to be LOCAL and from a vendor within my hometown, preferably."

"<p>Ground Zero did a top-notch job from start to finish! It is rare these days to be inspired to write a positive review, so let me dive in with the details:<br /> 1. Sales - I visited their showroom in South OKC. Alicia was very friendly and knowledgeable about the shelters. I'm an engineer by trade and had many geeky engineering questions; Alicia was able to answer every question I had about the construction and design. She walked me through how the entire process is handled, and even described OKC's building permit process.  Was so impressed that I made the purchase on-the-spot.  The price I indicated ($2300) was a sales price for the "smaller" shelter, so your price may vary.  <br /> 2. Permits/Pre-Install:  Ground Zero provided pre-filled forms for the building permit. If you live in OKC you can go online and apply, then fax the forms. They (the City) will call you back for your CC number and give you the permit number (which you provide back to Ground Zero.   Ground Zero people followed up with me four days before install to ensure that everything was on-track.<br /> 3.  Installation:  Here is where Ground Zero hit it out of the park. I have to admit I was nervous about the install, as I've had more than a few installations that were total nightmares. My installers - Raul (Installer) and Xavier (Helper) were on time, ready to start immediately, and were very polite and professional.  Since I had a Pre-Tensioned Slab we had to call Suncoast to cut /re-anchor the cables latticed underneath the slab, this caused Raul and Xavier some minor delay and re-marking, but both of them worked seamlessly with Suncoast with the modifications and everything quickly was back on track.  Raul quickly had the slab cut and dirt removed within 1.5 hours, he was able to finesse the mini-excavator like a pro, probably could use it to pick up toothpicks if he wanted. Xavier was constantly moving and took care of the 1000 other smaller tasks, Raul and Xavier worked together like clockwork and rarely needed to talk.   When they were done they cleaned EVERYTHING, not a spot of mud anywhere inside or on the driveway, Raul used the pressure washer for a good 30 minutes just on the driveway.  While Raul hauled the dirt away, Xavier finished the troweling on the cement backfill leaving it with a nice raised feathering that looks very professional.   NEVER in four hours on site did I see either gentleman take a break to loaf, they were constantly moving and working non-stop. <br /> I'm very pleased with the professionalism of the Ground Zero Team from Start to Finish, and pleased with the final product.   No, I'm not a "shill" nor do I work for Ground Zero. I am just one consumer that is tired of writing bad reviews for bad service, and pleased for once to be able to write an outstanding Review!</p> <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Dickson, TN

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.
