"I was calling around looking for a reputable roofing company in my area. Angie's List noted Story Roofing. <br /> I called and spoke to Chris. Chris answered all my questions prefessionally and honestly. He explained that since I was located over 2 hours away, it would be diffuclt for Story Roofing to be price competitive. That didn't detract him from being patient and courteous to me. <br /> I really appreciate Chris' honesty and willingness to prvide me with so much informaion regarding roofing and things to consider. <br /> I'm thoroughly impressed with the service I received!!! <br />"

"It went very well. I tried "the other guy" but he never followed through like he said he would. I called Ugly Shingles and they were very responsive and did exactly what they said when they said. The guys were friendly and clean cut. Price seemed high, but I did not compare prices with any other roof cleaner. The only thing they didn't do was to call when they were on their way, which I had requested. But I did not have to be home when the roof was cleaned. Roof looks great, too. They cleaned the front half of the roof and I have a small ranch style home."

"I contacted WeatherGard. I believed based on my own research that WeatherGard was the best option of every other company in their same lane. I did not want any fast talking salesman and told the lady on the phone that whoever contacts me back please be good! The sales manager first contacted me. He was extremely professional and very nice. We set up a Zoom call. I wanted a ballpark figure to get an idea. He was able to help me with that over the phone. It was a bit more at first than I thought, but still much less than Anderson. The owner was so good. His demeanor was as patient and honest as it could be. He helped us on selection and pricing to really make us feel good about my moving forward. With a slight bit of back and forth, I could not see myself even thinking of calling any other companies. Shlome the owner flat out sold me on himself and his company and why I should go with them. I cannot say enough good things about how they handled us. This was such a breath of fresh air because trying to find a good and honest company to do business with in the Midwest can be very challenging. Shlome had the knowledge, patience, professionalism without any high pressure or poor sales techniques. He showed me pictures and even what he did in his own home. WeatherGard to be the one. My wife and I made the drive to meet Shlome at his headquarters in Oak Park. He had a mask on when we arrived. It was the weekend and he met us there and again took all the time we needed face to face. We looked in the showroom and I sat down with Shlome and told him what we wanted. We have decided we wanted all the doors and windows for our 5,000 sq. foot home to be white on the inside and black on the outside. My office I wanted wood grain to match the woodwork. He showed me their wood grain finish. Not a laminate or sticker, but more of a dip. Super look. Not cheap at all. It would take some time to get the job ready for install. We left happy. We felt relieved with WeatherGard and excited. We loved how the windows had more than just 1 seal. My wife did not want bugs or air coming in and with their windows we see that is not going to happen. All Cardinal glass. Looked great. My job is ready for install. Chris, his brother on his crew Todd and Joe all showed up. They are so good! They are so professional. Yes they had masks on and they covered things in our home, used drop cloths everywhere and cardboard to walk on so not to damage our floors. They cleaned up after themselves. They never got annoyed with me watching them or asking a million questions. They used so much insulation which was my big thing. They made sure every window and door went in level and perfect and with all the foam and insulation they could possibly fit. This is their normal. They did not rush, they took their time. I’m telling anyone who is reading this, that this has been one of, if not the best experience of home re-mod I have ever had in my life. They were here 4 days in total. They trimmed everything so darn beautiful inside and out. I told them that as good as the product looked in the showroom that I felt it actually looked better installed in my home. I could not be happier. I tipped all 3 installers $200 each. I was not sure how much to tip them. I always like to tip workers when they are good and work hard and handle me with care. I just felt $50 or $100 would have been in insult. I don’t think they even expected it, but for me it’s just how I am. They were so gracious and so appreciative of my tip. As crazy as this sounds, I am sorry to see this crew leave and feel like this experience was so good that I did not want it to come to an end. How crazy is that?? It was like having friends come stay and vacation with you and when they leave to go home, you feel depressed for a day. I know, but I am telling you I am over the moon with WeatherGard, their approach, their management, their installers, their product and the entire experience from the moment they returned my call to the moment they pulled away from my completed job."

"The job took three weeks because of weather delays and we added the doors and concrete slab work on after the job began. Their work was excellent and the crew of people were friendly and very hard workers. They completely cleaned up the shingles, concrete, and other materials. Both my wife and I were very happy with the people and the quality of the work done."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Grayling, MI

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.
