"Very good, very helpful, great price and quality. Returned 3 times to fix unrelated leak in chimney, including chimney boot/flashing. (Come to find out from masonry contractor that chimney needs tapcon on cap and masonry repairs). Got platinum service warranty on roof, that includes both product and labor for defects and repair/replace."

"We are so pleased with our new roof installed by Plumlee Construction. Jaden and the team were very professional and knowledgeable about the process from start to finish!! They were able to schedule and complete our project within short time constraints. The roofers arrived early and stayed late. They were very polite, worked well as a team and did a very thorough cleanup after the new roof was on. They worked with our insurance company to help us recover the cost of installation. We highly recommend Plumlee Construction to anyone who needs a new roof!!"

"Best was simply fantastic.  They were done in one day, quality was great and the clean up just as good.  Literally found just 1 nail and 1 roof shingle (buried in a shrub near the house) after they completed the job.  Highly recommend them.  Saw many houses in the neighborhood take 2, 3, even 4 or more days to have the work done. <br />"

"Called twice and setup 2 appointments. Did not show for either appointment. Didn't call to say he wasn't going to make either appointment. Didn't apologize when I called after he missed the first appointment. Eventually Dennis showed up and looked at the roof. The estimate matched the final price. He must have taken 5 phone calls during the 20 minutes he was at the house which was a little ignoring. Anyway we set the date for the repair, which he missed. After calling and reminding him that he missed the date, this time he did apologize and set a new date. The roof is fixed (it was a minor repair) and it looks like they did a very good job. So basically you need to stay on Dennis to keep his attention but they did a good job."

"His crew came in and had to completely repaired a room that had termite damage. This included demolishing all of the floor, sub floor, floor joist and seal plate. Then they went in and installed a vapor barrier on the ground and started replacing all the materials that had been taken out. Terry and I was hoping for something small and maybe a few hours of work and it ended up being a 2 day project. His crew was very efficient and hard working. <br />"

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