"Contacted Roof Right for an estimate for having two old, leaking skylights removed and subroof and shingles installed in their place. I was quickly contacted by Roof Right to set up and appointment and Randy came by to take a look and give me an estimate. He was courteous and professional, easy to talk to. We thought their price was fair and had a good reputation so we hired them. Scheduling was easy and the crew was there when they were supposed to be. The crew was very nice, courteous and cleaned up after themselves. They worked quickly and efficiently. Payment through their portal was very easy too. Overall very happy with the work and would hire again. Thanks Roof Right for an easy process and a job well done."

"The repair job went WAY better than expected! Ronnie was wonderful! He was straightforward about the work they were doing. They discovered some unexpected areas that really needed addressed. He explained the situation and probably outcomes to me as well as his concerns. Although it ended up. being more money, it was my decision based on what he showed me. Well worth the extra money - my roof and chimney will never leak again. I am grateful for the quality of work that was done on my roof and chimney rebuild. Absolutely would recommend Joyland Roofing to anyone and everyone. Great guys, great price and great quality! Thanks for everything!"

"Truly is a quality company. Replaced our storm damaged roof and installed upgraded gutters and downspouts. The crew were so efficient and the cleanup of our yard was so good would not know such extensive work had been completed. New roof looks so good. Was a small issue with a couple of the new downspouts and the owner Jason personally came out and completely resolved the situation without any fuss. Would highly recommend Evans Quality Roofing."

"We had gutter, roof, and siding issues from the work of the previous homeowner and chose Hackman to correct it because they guaranteed their work. We are pleased with the completed jobs and have not had further issues in the months since the repairs were done. We feel confident that we will not have any more leaks, drips, or water damage after seeing their solutions to our problems and the quality of their work."

"Gunner Roofing We used Gunner to replace shingles. They told us that if we upgraded the skylight to one that is solar powered we would get a tax credit of 30% of the entire job, a savings of over $2000. We weren't planning to replace the skylight but the numbers made sense. When we filed our taxes for that year we learned that the skylight they used did NOT qualify for the tax credit. They mislead us to spending an extra $2,500 on the job. When I called to complain I left a message but no one ever returned my call. This is after they didn't do a good job on the roof and it took them months to come back and fix the leaks they caused. STAY AWAY!! Show less"

"Where to begin… Attention to detail. Craftsmanship. Knowledge. Quality (an often overused and sadly becoming a meaningless term). Friendliness. Fair. These are just some of the traits of this family owned business. I researched roofers before I selected Shirks. I was impressed with their Angies List ratings, and what was even more impressive to me was the fact I had to wait several months before they could schedule me. Being in demand means, to me at least, that they are busy and probably from word-of-mouth satisfied customers. My project involved replacing an existing 20+ year old roof on a 100+ year old house, and roofing a new porch I built (I’m an avid DIY’er). I originally planned to use steel roofing on the porch and when I resided my house, planned for this with the way I ran my flashing. They were able to work with, around, and replace what I did without issue, even though they were probably wondering “what the heck did this guy do?”. The roofer 20+ years ago replaced a slate roof with 5/8” plywood and 3-tab. My roof is 12/12 pitch with a dormer that’s probably 24/12 or steeper, and pretty much covers 1 1/3 stories in height (it’s steep!). There’s a walk-out basement out back, making the roof 3 stories up out back, and the land slopes down to a brook giving you the impression you’re WAY up there! The original roofer and his crew were scared to be up there - it IS high, and his crew quit one by one on him because they hated being up there. These guys didn’t show any fear of heights. They found where the original crew didn’t butt or edge the 5/8 plywood correctly, and fixed all of that, including what had become a nuisance leak in a dormer valley (where the plywood didn’t meet, and the gap was bridged with one thin piece of tar paper and one shingle layer). They also fixed the edges of the rakes of the original plywood before installing the drip edge to even them out. The week after they completed the roof, we received the heavy downpours and wind, and the inside of the house remained bone dry, and believe me, I was checking! My crew was the five Shirk brothers and two others. All of them worked well together without any of the squabbles my own brother and I would have had! Oh - I grew up with a working-class father who treated contractors as people, and I firmly believe in treating all people as I would want to be treated. I opened my bathroom to them to use whenever they needed it, and none of them made me regret this decision. They were appreciative of this hospitality and voiced their appreciation numerous times. Did I mention in the beginning they were friendly? I would recommend these guys anytime, anywhere and have a stack of their cards to hand out to anyone in my area that needs roofing work done (my own detached garage is pending for April). If anyone wants more information on what these guys did for me, please drop me an email at misc@mailme.us."

"Looking For A Top-Notch Contractor To Enhance Your Home? My wife and I recently contracted: Dreamworx Exteriors / Roofing 11 East Front Street #100 Shiremanstown , PA 17011 (717) 502 -4214 DreamworxRoofs.com DreamworxExteriors.com to completely remove & replace all roofing shingles, flashing, gutters, downspouts, etc. Why? While researching contractors, we discovered this company has numerous outstanding reviews and no negative reviews to be found. Their representative met with us at our home from the very beginning and on numerous occasions to discuss the details and pick the materials prior to starting the job. He worked closely with our insurance company which made the entire process very easy all-around! Kept us informed throughout! The day of work, the roofing team showed up on time, were strictly professional, all business and attentive to all of our customer needs and requests! They were very careful of outdoor lighting, plants, trees etc - which we very much appreciated! Of course, in the process of shingle removal (which btw, tarped around the entire house), their team discovered numerous underlying problems such as some active leaks, rotting wood, and then addressed each of these issues with permanent fixes - along with performing many other preventative maintenance extras throughout the job that other contractors would normally ignore - to cut corners and costs! Cleanup - can’t say enough about this company! Usually when you have a contractor perform any task, the homeowner has some clean-up afterwards! Not with Dreamworx! The roof & gutter team cleaned up all trash & nails using a rake and magnets...I walked the yard afterwards and couldn’t find one!! I was outside with the team and found one of my patio light plastic tops knocked off ( their older and aging) and I bent down to fix it when one member of the team practically pushed me out of the way and stating that, we did this, we will fix it ...hows that for integrity and professionalism! Also, now to mention, service after the sale! Dreamworx is not just wham-bam & go company, they go out of their way to take care of you and make sure your happy when all is said and done! We had a lot of questions before, during and after - all answered very satisfactorily! We also requested a minor change which, one of the owners is taking care of without question or judgement!! Service Driven!! If you want the best contractor / company in the area, who can take you from start to finish with fair prices, without worry, achieving spectacular and professional results, look no further! Dreamworx is the one to contact! Quality workmanship, timely and reliable work ethics and honest communication! Dreamworx will make sure you are 100% completely satisfied before rendering the job complete! However, be advised, don’t wait too long to schedule your home improvement needs...or you may have to wait in-line! Thank-you Dreamworx - Stephen and Matt!! Kathryn & Todd Shaffer Selinsgrove, PA"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Hanover, PA

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.
