"The entire process, from receiving an estimate, to scheduling the installation, removing the old gutters and downspouts, making pre-installation repairs, doing the actual installation, and final clean-up, was extremely professional. The Byers Team was on time, identified a few potential problem areas, expertly dealt with them, deftly worked around numerous plants and trees, went above and beyond anything I could reasonably have expected, and did a spectacular job on the installation. I could not be more pleased, and I can hardly wait for the rain to start so I can exult in not having to clean my gutters. Super teamwork all around!!"

"Outstanding company and crew. Gold Country Roofing completed the roof on our home plus 3 sheds and they did it in 3 days. The crew arrived on time as promised and began working right away. We had a few additional requests and they were accommodating offering suggestions. I was concerned about our gutter toppers as they were installed a couple of years ago and we have an electric awning cover that is bolted to the roof. The crew removed them and replaced them without an issue. All their work looks fantastic. The property was left in clean condition each day and the office staff was excellent in answering my questions regarding permit requirements. I highly recommend this company."

"We needed a new roof for our house. Our ‘old’ roof had few leaks and several problems that required the replacement with a new one. The last rain resulted in a water leak to the bedrooms area. So, we called Landmark construction energy upgrade because they did our neighbor's roof a year ago and they gave us an estimate at that time. This time, they just updated the estimate and they were able to lower it, which was cheaper than the other estimates we got. The good feeling was much better because it’s a family business who not only give the bid but do the work. No hard sell here or having the bid from one guy but the work is with unknown others - as it was with other bids. Landmark did the job so good and very fast as well which was awesome! The workers from Landmark made sure to clean the roof and they did a quality work. The roof was a mess with lots of humps, bumps and terrible pad for the Air conditioning. They rebuilt it all, and had people who came to do specialty tasks, such as hooking up the dish, the air conditioning condenser etc.… More than that, they also fixed the gutters and made sure they are connected correctly. All in all, this project is complete and done. We are no longer have to deal with the old roof and leaks for at least for 20 years. Before we did the new roof, The office staff helped us with the Cool Roof rebate from the power company and the federal tax rebate for an Energy Star roof, both of which we were not aware. Landmark construction energy upgrade are now our roofers who did a great work and have other great contractors to supplement for special tasks and run an all-around energy efficient business. If we ever move or we have a natural disaster, we know who will work for us."

"Could, and should have been better. <br /> Subcontractors: <br /> HVAC--Placer Heating and Air <br /> Insulation--Gold Star <br /> Windows--mostly in-house. <br /> Lessons learned: <br />  1. Put everything in writing--no verbals or phone call contractual or post-contractual agreements. Use email for documentation after the contract is signed.  <br /> 2. Hold back final monies until all work is done.  <br /> 3. Do not rush the work or allow the contractor to rush the work.  <br /> 4. If it's in the contract, insist on it and withhold payment until it's done. <br /> 5. All parts are the contractor's responsibility. <br /> 6. Inspect all work before the next phase, distribute a punch list, and don't approve and/or pay until you are satisfied. <br /> 7. Ignore suggestions that faulty equipment is due to the customer's lack of understanding. Contact the manufacturer if something doesn't seem right. <br /> 8. Insist on good quality finish work. <br /> 9. Insist that all materials be as specified in the contract or standard (check the standards when in doubt). <br /> 10. Be wary of companies that subcontract HVAC. <br /> 11. Make sure all work is permitted; read permits carefully; flag errors. <br /> 12. Check model and serial numbers in contract with manufacturer's website to ensure the grade/series you are paying for is physically the same. <br /> <strong>July 7-9</strong> <br /> Contract was signed on June 25, 2015. Work started July 7 and continued for three days total. Old HVAC equipment was removed, ducts removed, some insulation removed, new HVAC equipment installed, new thermostat installed. Insulation removal said to be complete. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Subcontractors both stated that insulation was completely removed when it was not (twice). <br /> ?HVAC sub and contractor implied homeowner was incapable of operating new wifi thermostat. Three wifi thermostats malfunctioned, leading homeowner to contact manufacturer's rep to resolve the problem. They advised another thermostat that did not read the wall temperature rather than the air temperature. <br /> ?Apprentice attempted to obtain side work replacing air registers. <br /> ?HVAC sub tried to get homeowner to buy control parts for whole house fan installation. <br /> ?HVAC sub dragged feet and stalled on doing contractual work on water heater. Homeowner had verbal agreement with contractor's sales rep to install in two steps; contractor denied agreement. Homeowner removed it from contract by mutual agreement. <br /> ?New intake return cutout cut beyond boundary into ceiling. <br /> <strong>July 15<br /> </strong>Windows installed 8am to 3pm <br /> More insulation removed. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Wrong windows ordered; only two could be installed. <br /> <strong>July 22 </strong> <br /> Punch list and connect whole house fan to controls <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Whole house fan motor burned out on install; wired incorrectly. <br /> ?Ceiling fixture not reinstalled properly. <br /> <strong>July 27<br /> </strong>Remaining windows and patio door installed. <br /> More insulation removed. <br /> Problems: <br /> Window trim not caulked on outside. <br /> Some trim cuts not even with other pieces. <br /> Windows not cleaned after install. <br /> One piece of original trim recycled instead of replaced. <br /> Homeowner paid contractor paid about 2/3 of the contractual amount. The rest held until all work completed. <br /> <strong>through end of July, August, September</strong> <br /> Punch list work completed on windows, HVAC. Thermostat replaced. Whole fan wired correctly to dedicated circuit. Whole house fan hanging location shifting to optimum location. Duct work straightened. Damper installed on one duct to balance air. <br /> Insulation was blown 8/27/15. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Heat pump cycling on for 30 seconds accompanied by buzzing noise that gets louder. <br /> ?Whole house fan not permitted. <br /> ?HVAC sub scheduled to work but did not show up; on another day, sub called several times but never showed <br /> <strong>Test out, code inspection<br /> </strong>Test out performed 9/15/15, Code inspection 9/22/15 and re-inspected for whole house fan permit failure on 9/30/15. <br /> Problems: <br /> ?Test out failed on air leakage. Did not meet SMUD HPP specifications. Rebate not available. Contractor offers to refund the difference. <br /> ?HVAC and window work passed inspection, but whole house fan was never permitted. Contractor pulled the permit, provided hard copy, inspector reinspected on 9/30/15. <br /> <strong>SMUD rebate preparation<br /> </strong>Contractor prepares JRT (job reporting template) for SMUD HPP and sends to homeowner for review. (9/18) <br /> Contractor prepares SMUD rebate application for homeowner (9/24) <br /> Problems: <br /> Some calculations incorrect on the JRT. Contractor resolved. <br /> Some rebates changed in the four months the contract work spanned. Contractor made up differences. <br /> <strong>Final Payment<br /> </strong>Homeowner made final payment on 9/30/15. <br /> <strong>SMUD rebate receipt<br /> </strong>Homeowner receives rebate check from SMUD on 11/5/15. <br /> Problems: <br /> Total $150 short of JRT. Inquiries with SMUD revealed that contractor revised JRT after last version was sent to homeowner. The latest JRT did not include the whole house fan in the project. Homeowner not informed. SMUD made arrangements to rebate the whole house fan. <br /> Takeaways: <br /> Sales rep made a good professional, technical, and personal impression without hard sell or scare tactics. One issue with verbal agreement. Scheduler at the contractor very responsive, efficient, and flexible. HVAC sub skilled, but sometimes unreliable and choice of apprentices unwise--made a bad impression of the company. Window snafu annoying.  <br /> Too much homeowner time spent on this contract: over ten days of visits, two no-shows, two code inspections, one test out. Too many emails to count. Final rebate prep never shared with homeowner. Test out failed air leakage test. <br /> <br /> <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Grass Valley, CA

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.
