"Andrew Pearson showed up to give me a free quote on a furnace vent replacement. I was blown away that the company sent me a photo of the guy before he showed up. I think more companies should be doing that. I also asked Andrew for a quote on a new roof as I suspected I'd need one in the next few years. He confirmed my suspicions and provided the quote, even though I told him I likely wasn't going forward with that for a couple years. I just needed to know what to budget for. He was very helpful. A couple weeks later Brad Bartlett showed up to do the work. He handled it fairly quickly and sent photos of his progress as he went. He let me know to call if I had any issues and he would come back to fix them. So far it's all looking great. No leaks and the furnace doesn't vent into my garage anymore. I'm very happy with the work done."

"They completed a complete roof teardown and putting new shingles on in a single day.  Over the weekend more high velocity wind hit the area and they came out the next day to check and make sure everything stayed in place.  They did everything without requiring any money upfront to start or complete the work.  R&R Roofing is a true roofing company that not only does the work, they did it correctly without cutting corners to meet the insurance quote.  They also kept me informed with everything that was going on.  Truly a professional company and a great company to work with."

"Two years ago this company installed several replacement windows for us. Because of their excellent work and product we contacted them again to do another job for us. Todd, the owner/salesman, is easy to talk with and is very knowledgeable concerning replacement doors and windows. He discussed with us the pros and cons of the different patio doors. In the past we have dealt with several contractors and Todd is by far the best in quick response to phone calls. He was at the job location several times to be sure supplies were delivered (or delivered himself) and that the work was progressing well. After the windows were installed we decided to move one . Our contractor removed the window and reframed it. Rod, Todd's brother and partner, came out and reinstalled the window at no charge to us. These men are conscientious, trustworthy and dependable. The product they sell has won national awards. We would definitely recommend them to others."

"We called Tornado Roofing on the recommendation of a friend. They came out within a couple of days to give us an estimate. We soon had a clearly written bid that came in lower than the competitors and they promptly got the job done for us. We soon had a great new roof, gutters with leaf protection and 2 sun tunnel skylights in our bathrooms. They also installed extra insulation in our attic. They did a wonderful job and their clean up was impeccable! They were so easy to work with and we highly recommend them for their excellent work, professionalism and friendliness. Thank you Tornado Roofing!"

"I'm very happy with it. When I had my windows done throughout the house, I had one that cracked and they told me they would repair that when they put the garden window in and they did not do that. Some of the insulation that they put around the window is coming out and they were suppose to replace that, or at least bring it to me so that I could replace it and they did not do that. When I first decided on the garden window I thought I would pay it off monthly and they ran it through some company called GreenSky and meanwhile I changed my mind and decided to pay it off and get it over with and I still to this day get statements from GreenSky. I have called Bee window and the person has not called me back to call them and cancel that. I realize it might be already in the system and that may be why I may be getting a bill. I don't like it that I keep getting late charges. I don't own GreenSky a penny and I called and cancelled with them, but they want to hear from Bee window that the contract was cancelled and paid in full.  <br /> Some people might think it's nit picking about the cracked window and the insulation coming out from the windows. But when you pay a decent price for something, you expect it to do it's job.  <br />"

"We contacted Coors for a quote on a new front French door. Scott came out within a week to take a look at the door we were hoping to replace. I was very impressed that he took the entire trim off my existing door to get an accurate measurement for the new door. He provided us with a quote for the new door within the week and kept in great contact with us while the door was ordered. When they installed the new door, they did a fantastic job and even took the extra time and effort to match the trim stain exactly. We couldn't of asked for a better end result! In fact, we are having them replace another door next month. Very professional, punctual, and great to work with!"

"From estimate to final installation working with the folks at L.J. Stone was a pleasure. Special thanks to Rusty the installer. He was very pleasant, very polite and very efficient. He took great care to keep the area clean during construction even laying cardboard down from the bathroom to the back door to protect the flooring. I am very pleased with the new shower. It looks great and is very functional from the ease of entering to the new shower head and controller. As silly as it sounds, I now look forward to showering."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Forest, IN

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.
