"We had noticed several leaks. Joe came out, cleaned off our roof, and told us that it was time to replace the roof. I had 2 other companies come out and both their estimates were almost twice what Joe quoted. When the team removed the felt and worn shingles, they discovered 11 pieces of plywood were severely damaged. They also had to support 5 beams. The team was thorough and efficient. They did an absolutely beautiful job and the work was first rate. They finished everything in 1.5 days (working 12 hours the first day) to beat a large rain front. We couldn't be happier and would rehire them and recommend them to anyone! They also took down an old antenna, trimmed a few tree branches, and helped repair some damage caused by a squirrel. The house looks great! <br />"

"We used Precise Roofing for a shake-shingle roof this Fall. Roberto and his team were extremely professional in handling our roofing project. They were very busy with many jobs during the time they were to do our home’s roof and there were many details that Roberto handled with high attention to detail and no issues at all. Prior to contracting with Precise, Roberto was very willing to meet with me on many occasions to address specifics of the job such as HOA requirements and potential insurance claim adjustments. Roberto and his crew made the whole process very smooth and an overall excellent experience. Quality of work was outstanding and I would definitely recommend Precise Roofing to anyone needing roof replacement of repair, gutters, skylights or even trim repair."

"They did an excellent job, from estimate to completion of work. The clean up following the install was exceptional. They communicated during the process and made a recommendation that saved us some money and provided a better solution than the roof that was being replaced. Diligent, hard working."

"Robert came out on time, provided a fair estimate and offered lots of advice on repair items not all related to the roof. His crew was very professional, did good work and cleaned up the site nicely."

"This was my first time using this company and I am very pleased that they were the first company I called when I noticed that my roof was leaking. Bryon was the service representative that came out and inspected our roof, and he was very thorough, pleasant and very detailed when he explained the pictures he took of our roof and the process of submitting the claim to the insurance company. He even came out and spoke to the insurance company on our behalf to submit the initial claim, and he came out and inspected the roof again with the insurance adjuster. Any questions that we had during the process, Bryon was their to answer. He represented the company well. This was my first insurance claim and I was very happy that I had Bryon and the rest of the Roof Medic staff to assist me, and to make the insurance claim process easy. Roof Medic really did the majority of the work with the insurance company to make sure that my roof was paid for in full. The day of the roof installation the roofers came out bright and early, and completed the roof without any problems. They took plenty of pictures throughout the installation process and made certain that I walked the property with them after the installation was complete. Roof Medic really made this process effortless. Thank you for being such a great company, and I wish you many more years of success."

"Why I have selected ON TOPS ROOFING to do the complete replacement of my 7,150 square feet roof: I look around and asked for several estimates from large to small companies, and I have selected ON TOPS ROOFING because: 1) I wanted “designer” shingles which are thicker and more difficult to install than “architectural” shingles, and I wanted the best workmanship warranty. ON TOPS roofing has done a lot of “designer” shingle roofs and is a GAF Master Elite contractor since a long time with a very large volume of installed GAF shingles. And because they are Master Elite, the GAF manufacturer can offer warranty on their workmanship job for 25 years (GOLDEN PLEDGE Warranty). 2) ON TOPS roofing is a “NC GENERAL CONTRACTOR”. This is a guaranty for good business and professionalism. Nevertheless, I received several estimates from other roofers not being “NC GENERAL CONTRACTOR”, 3) ON TOPS ROOFING was very well positioned for Price /work quality: My roof was a complex project with 63 roof facets, 23 valleys and a lot of flashings. ON TOPS Roofing was offering the same work quality (Hand nailing shingles. Open metal valleys….) than the largest more expensive company. Why I recommend ON TOPS ROOFING for professional roofing or re-roofing work: 1) The work went as contracted and scheduled with no surprises or misunderstanding. Brian, the project manager was on site most of the time, and always left messages when he had to leave to take more material or for other reasons, and always answered his phone, even after hours. He was always receptive to my remarks or demands, and everything has been done exactly the way I wanted. 2) At some point one flashing was not looking right for me, the day after they sent their flashing and metal forming expert to redo the job. 3) The team was very organized and professional. Now, after the work done I can really say that ON TOPS ROOFING offers an outstanding PRICE / WORK QUALITY ratio."

"Recently, Southern National reached out to me and informed that my roof might need to be replaced. I setup an initial estimate, and was given a well informed breakdown and cost of what needed to be done with my roof. Brandon Blasko walked me through the whole process that Southern National had to offer, he was able to answer any question I had and was able to breakdown what the roof should cost and all the components the roof. After we talked, I was able schedule quickly. The crew arrived on time and was able to finish the roof in one day. The crew even cleaned and scanned the yard for any nails or debris. I love the new roof and I would recommend Southern National to all my friends and family."

"I had a good experience with this company in the Spring of 2017. They installed gutters and added downspouts to the original construction of the house. These guys are experts and their services are reasonably priced. I had a problem with my gutters overflowing and they were quick to come back out. Turns out the problem was too few drain pipes, which was my responsibility."

"Helped with Insurance Claim for Hail Damage. Provided the best quote for the roofing job with the quality materials and extras we wanted (we also had them do one bay window with copper). The whole process was very smooth, with a slight exception of timeliness (our job got delayed a few times, but it was not an issue for us and we let them know we were flexible). Roof looks great, crew was quick (our roof is pretty large so while they normally do houses in our neighborhood in a single day, ours spanned a bit into a 2nd day). Their copper subcontractor also did a great job. After the work I find an occasional nail, but nothing that I would be concerned about (they definitely did a magnet sweep and a visual sweep, but nothing gets 100% of the nails) <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Durham, NC

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.
