"EXCELLENT. QUALITY WORK. I would hire Testa again in a minute, with no questions asked. I needed a repair on a section of my steep-pitched roof and Testa's price was VERY reasonable. He did not try to sell me more work than what I needed or wanted. They arrived on site when scheduled, and everything was done in a neat and workmanship like manner. Craftsmanship is not dead. I'm very pleased. I think you will be too."

"Anthony demonstrated he knew how to repair it so it would NEVER leak ... and that's exactly what he did. He ensured the conditions were right for the roof application, kept me informed of his schedule, and did a pristinely neat job. He is both a skilled craftsman and a professional business person."

"Superb performance, from evaluation to completion. Anthony and his team managed impeccable removal of old roof, replacement of weak and rotting plywood, and installation of new boards and roof. I could not recommend any company more highly. D Jackson Coleman"

"We had a gorgeous tin roof installed by Rick and his crew. From the very first meeting to go over what our options were, to the day the job was completed, Rick was a true professional. Before hiring him to do the work we shopped around for prices and he couldn't be beat. Repair N Remodel LLC is top notch A+++++++++"

"When the heavy rain came after the wind storms, we discovered that we had water coming into the house. I called Ivan, who had done roofing for us before, hoping that he might get the message and get back to me, even though it was a Saturday. Ivan answered the phone himself, and said he would be over in about two hours to tarp the roof. He did so, and gave me a verbal assessment and estimate to repair; because the existing roof was nearly 15 years old and the shingles weren't made any more, he recommended replacement. He followed with a quote for the exact price he had given me verbally - a very good price. He said it would be a couple of months because of the backlog of work, but that the tarp should prevent further damage, which it did, in spite of the rainy, windy spring. Because of the weather, it was longer than he expected before he could do the work, but once he was here, he and his crew worked steadily through to completion. He kept me updated on what he was finding and took care of a couple of unexpected problems. We had to go out of town before he was finished, and I offered to pay him some of the money before we left to cover the cost of his materials, but he said it wasn't necessary - he would meet with me when we got back. The final bill was exactly what I expected, and the roof looks great! And, we haven't had any more water in the house! This is the second job Ivan has done for me, and I would recommend him for roofing with no hesitation whatsoever."

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