"Wow! Roofers were here at 7 AM and left at 7 PM. New roof done and they cleaned every square inch of driveway, yard and porch. Two gentlemen from the Honduras and one from Mexico. They were the sweetest, most polite and hardworking guys. My roof looks great. Allstate will be installing new gutters in a couple weeks. Highly recommended for price and workmanship. Me and my husband are very happy!"

"Nick and his crew was great. Nick was very easy to talk to and explained the process in advance. His crew started promptly on time. His crew consisted of skilled, well-coordinated and very hard working individuals. In this teardown job, they were able to do a seamless transition from one part of the roof that had an underlayment of cedar shingles to another part of the roof that had plywood underlayment. Tim was there all the time to supervise the work and Nick stopped by from time to time as well. They texted pictures along the way so we could see what was happening. We are very happy with the new roof. It looks great and they did a quality job. They put our lightening arresters back up when they were done too."

"We were thrilled with our experience working with Long Construction, which far exceeded our expectations. In particular, John O'liver played a crucial role in coordinating with my insurance company to ensure that my roof was installed and covered after the deductible. John is not only exceptionally knowledgeable about insurance processes but also incredibly personable—qualities that are rare to find in Monroe County. Working with him was a pleasure, and I would highly recommend Long Construction to any friends needing roofing services, especially if they have the chance to work with John and Bob. The entire experience with Long Construction was remarkable, and astonishingly, they completed the new big roof installation in just one day."

"He did a wonderful job. The only part of the roof on the building it was flat the house was built in 1957 He came in and talked to me about the repair and my concern about flat roof and i was worried about it leaking again. So he told me why the way he was going to fix it would reproof against leaking and he went ahead and did that. It was difficult because it was 30 feet up but he came and he did an excellent job and its never leaked since but I was up on the roof, at least six months after it was repaired I noticed that part of the flushing around the vent it looks like its starting to come up called him and he came in quickly within the day. He went ahead and repaired it and ever since then it has been perfect. Never leaked."

"Gunner Roofing We used Gunner to replace shingles. They told us that if we upgraded the skylight to one that is solar powered we would get a tax credit of 30% of the entire job, a savings of over $2000. We weren't planning to replace the skylight but the numbers made sense. When we filed our taxes for that year we learned that the skylight they used did NOT qualify for the tax credit. They mislead us to spending an extra $2,500 on the job. When I called to complain I left a message but no one ever returned my call. This is after they didn't do a good job on the roof and it took them months to come back and fix the leaks they caused. STAY AWAY!! Show less"

"Called Sal Saturday afternoon about repairing a large piece of fascia that was flapping in the wind along the roof line. I could not reach it with my 24 foot ladder. He showed up the next morning on Sunday (Mother's Day). and did the repair thoroughly and safely. He also noticed that the downspout needed reattachment and just did it. Professional, friendly service, great quality, and fair price."

"Great handy man business! They were able to get extra 5 inch double siding for me as I did not have enough for the job. The "Mack" showed up and did a great job doing a small repair many companies wouldn't bother with at an excellent price. Will definitely be using them again."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Fairport, NY

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.
