"Steve was on time, absolutely professional, explained how that 'spot' was on the ceiling and how to remove it. The "leak" was an old 'stain' on the ceiling... and we needed no repairs to this roof. We asked that they check the roof yearly to ensure it remains in excellent condition.. *** Found out all good things about our home. They did the original roof in 2000... and again in 2008 as the owners had to replace all the duct work so they removed the roof to do that job. Facts a new homeowner should know!"

"Trafton roofing did both our roof and our gutters on our house; additionally, they repaired a pre-existing leak that I had been fighting for years (hard to reproduce/detect). I could not be happier with their service and give them the highest of recommendations!"

"Quality workmanship and completed home roof replacement within a few days. Overall cleanup of large debris was excellent, however there were some negatives to our experience. 1st, the roll off container for the debris still sits in my driveway, 6 days after the work was completed. Have called, daily, multiple times each day, to get an ETA of container removal, and only get the answering service, during office hours. They take a message and promise a return call, yet no responses from company as of this review. 2nd, workers left cigarette butts and food waste in my yard, for me to clean up. 3rd and, in my opinion, the unprofessional of all of it, is the small debris, especially screws, nails, sharp pieces of scrap metal scattered throughout my property. Unacceptable to return home, after work was completed and crew gone, to find all this debris. Would like to safely use my driveway, walk my property, and have my dogs run freely, without fear of injury, which already happened twice, during my personal cleanup of the debris. Workmanship, superior customer service, and accountability. They only came through on workmanship, which is what I recommend them for; be prepared for the hassle with the rest of it."

"This is my 2nd re-roofing. The color selection of the new shingles is a more appealing color with a high quality ridge vent. Even the brochure was ultra professional. I knew exactly what I was purchasing. Gator came immediately to perform the Wind Mitigation Inspection and another day to check on clean up and my seamless gutters were secure. The whole look makes my 40 year old brick home look new! Thanks Hise for your knowledge and professionalism. Karen in Lecanto, FL"

"An inspection was needed on our roof because of a recent hailstorm, so we called Energy Roofing to come out to inspect. Our roof was replaced not too long ago. Dave and Christy called us back immediately on that Friday and made an appointment to come by the following Monday. They were here when they said they would be and came prepared to get on the roof to inspect. All went well and there was no significant damage. We appreciated the fast response and would absolutely use Energy Roofing when needed in the future."

"Eric is awesome. 14" solar tube installed in well under two hours. Zero mess. Love the results: daylight in formerly pitch dark hallway! With homeshow discount, $674 including solar nightlight. Would definitely do it again."

"The ancient adage that you get what you pay for is absolutely true. Mr. Don Hickman of Don Hickman Metal Roofs and his staff were absolute professionals. From the time they were contacted for a quote until the job was finished I was kept informed of every step of the process. Steve and his installation crew were respectful of the surrounding property, on time, patient with questions, and meticulous with their installation of the roof and repair of the chimney. After interviewing many contractors for this job my selection of Don Hickman Metal Roofs turned out to be 100% spot on. I would, and have, recommended Don and he is team to several members of our community."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Fort White, FL

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.
