"We could not have had a better experience with At Your Service. After talking to Jerry, we decided to have an inspection done on our roof which determined that we had damage from a storm from earlier in the year. Jerry walked us through the insurance process and within a week or two, we were approved for a new roof through our insurance! Within several days of approval, a crew showed up and did a phenomenal job replacing our roof. They arrived early and stayed until dusk to finish the replacement in 2 days. The professionalism of the crew and their diligent clean-up was also impressive. We can't say enough great things about Jerry and the entire At Your Service team; our experience was top-notch and we have been referring them to family and friends. If you need roof repair or replacement, this is your company!"

"The roof had suffered substantial wind damage. I called Advantage Roofing and Tim came to do an estimate. He was very professional, very punctual, and explained the entire process of roof replacement and insurance to me. The job was done exactly as promised. It was on time, done correctly, everything was cleaned up, and they were very careful around the landscaping. They even did a few tiny favors for me! I was so pleased with everyone involved. Their office staff is also fantastic! EVERY TIME I call, I am greeted with cheerful, welcoming voices. Tim and EVERYONE at his company truly appreciate their customers! I would DEFINETLY hire them again...I will be a life-long customer....and I will ALWAYS use them for my investment properties. If you need anything done with your roof or your exterior, I know that you will get great service from Advantage Roofing. I wish I could give them an A++++ and FIVE gold stars!!"

"It is a busy time of year for roofing companies. It took about a week from contact to having a person on the job. The estimator who arrived went on the roof and determined that the repair was minor and fixed it then and there. He was confident that the leak was repaired. We will learn whether he was right when we have our next heavy rain event."

"<p>I called to get a roof inspection after a few shingles were blown off in the April 2 storm. The first available appointment was in three weeks. My shingles were discontinued by the manufacturer. So, I was concerned about getting something that would closely match my shingles. Also, the entire roof needed to be inspected for additional damage beyond what I could see. I had talked to other roofers that said the entire roof needed to be replaced and my insurance would pay for it.  I really just wanted an accurate assessment of what needed to be done. The Ray St. Clair roof inspector recommended a repair for the small damaged area and gave me an estimate. He didn't try to talk me into a whole new roof. The repair was done a week after getting the estimate. They were good about communicating and doing what they said they would do. I was very happy that they matched my shingles so well that the repaired area isn't something that's noticeable. I would definitely use them in the future, and even though I only did a repair this time, be comfortable using them for a total roof replacement in the future.</p>"

"We had Justin, the field supervisor, out for 2 separate water leak issues. The first of these issues had been a window water leak where the roof line and an odd placed window meets. This leak was ongoing for 4+ years and 4 other separate roofing/siding/window companies had tried their 'fix' without fixing the issue. Justin easily spotted the trouble area and repaired a 4+ year long ordeal within an hour. We have had multiple hard rains since and no more leak! We called him a second time for a different roof leak. He found an issue with how the shingles were laid down where 2 roof lines meet. He did a simple repair to the roof shingles and we are hopeful that this will solve the issue. We will definitely be using Sherriff-Goslin Roofing for any future roofing needs. And we will definitely be recommending them to our friends and family."

"The sales rep was wonderful. We knew our shingles were old and needed to be replaced. The slew rep asked if our insurance was covering the cost or part of it. We said no. He inspected the roof and found a lot of hail damage. We contacted the insurance company. They sent out an inspector, and our sales rep came to shoe him pictures and to point out the damage, so insurance covered almost the entire cost! This company had a very good selection of materials and colors and the sales rep was very helpful with suggestions. The job was completed in one day. There was a wonderful project manager who was there the whole time, watching that things were done correctly. He answered questions and pointed out problems and their solutions. He had them re-do a small part because he wanted it perfect. All of the workers were industrious and conscientious.They took care to protect our siding, windows and landscaping. They cleaned up afterwards. We are very pleased with the work, the materials, and the professionalism of all of the workers. I recommended them to a neighbor. Another neighbor saw the sales rep come and measure, and asked about having his roof done, and ended up having his done the same day! <br /> I highly recommend Roofing Annex! <br />"

"Loveland Roofing put a new roof and gutters on my house in early 2016. Tim was extremely helpful and knowledgeable throughout the process, and I ended up with a top-quality roof at a price that beat all of the other quotes I got. Three years on and I've had no issues. Highly recommended."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Independence, KY

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.
