"Overall, it went well working with Mr. Daniel Weiler, Owner/Manager of A-Better Exterior. What I loved the most is he actually showed us the materials he would be using on the project, explained every detail of the estimate, and threw in free gutters repair/replacement/install for the job. the Roof job took 2 days, at the end of September 2018, because of forecast of rain, but actually the 2nd day was mostly cleanup of everything. The Ceiling drywall repair and painting could not be done till early this year due to scheduling conflicts on my end - that took less than 1 day."

"Everything with american standard roofing went great. Their pricing was right in line (or less) than the other 3 quotes I received. The guy giving the estimate did not have a hard sales pitch or some stupid slide show on a tablet. They simply quoted the job and let me make a decision with out any pressure. When it came to install day they came with a massive crew and had all of the work completed within the same day. I had a lot of decking boards that were rotted and needed to be replaced as well. The new roof looks great and it does not leak."

"Justin and his team were able to cut and reuse some of the original siding and then used extra siding that I had laying around, which minimized the color difference between the undamaged siding and the repaired location. They even took care of a leaky exhaust vent on my roof for a minimal fee. I was unable to be there when the team were doing the repairs, but Justin kept me up to date with text messages and even sent me pictures of both before and after of the siding and roof vent repairs. I was very impressed with Justin's responsiveness and professionalism, and I will definitely hire them again."

"Initially, there were a few issues due to technical difficulties and complexity of the roof job.  After some discussions with GLR team, they came out several times to consult on the technical issues and ultimately resolved every single detail without charging us a ton of extra costs.  After all is said and done, James Weiss is not only a fair and honest..... He's helpful and pretty good guy. <br />"

"The installation of the roof went fairly quick and looks good. I have two issues. One (minor) was why some (two) of the gutters weren't secured to the side of the house and the ventilation windows for the attic that were to be installed. The latter is the focus of this review. The issue is that we were told the ventilation windows required custom build and had to be outsource, as our window size was not a standard size. On May 2nd, 2018, I was told that the estimate from Wimsatt, the vendor, would be 12 - 14 days. Roof Rite was paid in full in mid May with the agreed understanding that the vents for the attic would be installed immediately afterwards. It is now December 2018 and there has been no installation of the vents. I have been in touch with the site PM via text messages on a monthly basis, but have not received any indication that this task would be completed. NOTES and CLARIFICATIONS: The site PM said that there would be no cost for the manual labor of the installation, and the vents would be installed as a courtesy provided that I purchase the two vents. This was more of a gentleman's agreement than contractual. This is my error for believing and accepting that offer and is a lesson learned. The site PM said that should I want to install the vents myself, they could be dropped off. Seeing how I neither had the tools or laddering/scaffolding (a reason why I hired the company and requested the professionals complete the work), the offer seemed to imply that I had to wait until the company was good and ready to deal with me. In summary, the company has been paid in full, I have been asking for over 7 months on the installation of the vents and, in my eyes, the project has not been completed. There are ways to continue the working relationship if additional funding is required for work. In my line of work, that is called a 'change request'. To just ignore the issue ruins working relationships and ultimately damages the reputation of the vendor/implementation team. Please correct this."

"Outstanding! There are a few good pole barn builders in the market but, virtually none of them are interested in pole barn repairs, especially in the case of small jobs. John McCarter Construction, though, sent two knowledgeable and personal young men to do the job which made good business sense because I've already recommended them to others in the South Lyon area. Small jobs now = larger jobs later. Also, Amber is really great to work with."

"Working with 21st Century Windows was the smoothest project I have ever had, working with a contractor. Cody kept me updated weekly on window procurement status and the installers were very professional, respectful of my property and kept things clean, to the point you would never have known work was jut done to my home, except for the fact that we now had beautiful new windows. Thank you guys! Will definitely use your services again in the future."

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