"CJS roofing was excellent to work with. They always responded promptly to my questions. They were proactive with weather related updates. Everything was cleaned up immediately when they finished the job. And, the new roof looks great. Would definitely recommend them!"

"Checked online for company with best references and found Freedom Midwest Gutters and Siding, LLC. The owner, Hal Knapp, provided me with addresses of houses his company had put siding on, including one in the exact color and design I was interested in. Checked all 4 references provided and found the work to be exceptional. Decided to go with Mr. Knapp. I'm glad I did. From the start, Hal was definitely on top of my project. He helped interface with my insurance company and secured me larger payment amounts for several areas the insurance company needed to increase. His knowledge of the business and the insurance claims procedure enabled me to get a much larger payment from the insurance company. He always had material needed on site and ready to go when needed. And a word about his work crew. The guys on the crew arrived every day an hour early. They worked straight through, skipping breaks, took short lunches, worked until dusk every day. Talk about old-time pride and workmanship! They never left a mess at the end of the day, no trash in the yard, no radio blasting loud music, no cigarette butts. I was present for each day and checked at the end of the day for any problems. There weren't any! These guys did it right the first time. They even found a construction flaw from when the house was originally built and corrected it without missing a beat. Hal was on hand every day, making sure material was ready, checking for little things like fasteners, caulk, etc. Everyone seemed to be on top of the job. I have seen many work crews in the neighborhood over the years, but I have never seen a crew this good or a job run this well. I'm very glad I found Freedom Midwest Windows and Siding, LLC. Based on my experience, I would use them again in a heartbeat and I recommend them without reservation."

"My home is one of the very old homes in St. Louis. When I had our roof redone there were 'surprises' that took extra effort and extra cost to correct. Chris was the fellow who walked us through all of it and I watched how carefully he proceeded. How calm and understanding he was and, due to impending rain, I saw that he personally (with one or two others) hustled in on a Saturday or Sunday morning to cover some exposed areas. Always attentive. Because of this I rehired for rental and again his folks worked above and beyond. I placed 4 rather than 5 for quality and for me that only is there to account for the fact that all was not perfect. What roof job would be? I suppose for brand new homes maybe. There was a 'quality' problem with rental that I brought up to Chris. He reviewed. Agreed. We both understood what had happened and why. (I must write here that this was my error, I did not get some tuck-pointing done that he had said should be taken care of before roofing). He corrected, at no cost, and again did so on a weekend. So that he could complete my job to satisfaction and remain on schedule with newer jobs. I will hire again. He's a good guy."

"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Festus, MO

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.
