"What a tremendous experience with a tremendous company! We needed a new roof but wanted to wait until this spring to have it installed. We had seen a BUCCOs truck in a nearby street and decided to check them out! All it took was one phone call to realize that this was a truly first class company-- PROFESSIONAL in all caps deserved! Everyone we encountered our Buccos Roofing experience shined in their gargantuan efforts to make sure that we were pleased! Amazing Sam Felicetti worked tirelessly with us to help us select exactly what we needed to protect and enhance our home. He listened to our life plans and helped us determine what improvements to make and which were unnecessary. He mailed a true sized shingle sample to us when we had trouble determining roofing color. Mike Davidson, our outstanding project manager, continued to astound us as he made sure we received lots of helpful information on what to expect and how best to prepare. Any question or concern was immediately addressed. Even on weekends! WHO does that?! Our install date was right on schedule! The crew of installers were expert, hard working and polite. When our bay window roof portions proved tricky, Mike decided to bring in a specialty team to complete that part of the installation. The roof & new skylight look great! This company cared for our home and property as if it were their own. Not a single hitch-- not a single negative. How often does that happen?! WOW!"

"Gunner Roofing has an excellent team that completed my house siding project. As certified installers of James Hardie, they were professional from start to finish! Andrew was extremely knowledgeable of the product and created a spectacular design and assisted w/ the financing of my project. He was always available to answer all questions. The Project Manager Anthony communicated daily with project updates and was extremely responsive to questions and addressed all concerns in a timely manner. The workers were exceptional as they always arrived early and worked late to ensure completion of the work. Really appreciated their attention to detail! I highly recommend this company!"

"Tony worked with us to get a free quote and then we signed contract the next day for them to do our roof. We were scheduled and he was in contact with us when they were delivering materials and when they were starting the job. The guys came to start the roof and they were really nice guys. Courteous and picked up after themselves. Yard was cleaned up when they were done and the metal roof is really nice looking. The guys worked hard in the hot weather and in the rain. They got everything done in just 3 days and we have a pretty big roof. They did excellent and told us to call if we have any problems at all. Awesome team and definitely would recommend them!! Price was in our range and I was quoted soooo much higher than them when I was shopping around for roof guys. So happy we got them!!"

"Mike and his crew really are top notch. He came out to do an estimate and actually got on the roof to check it out. The other roofing company I requested an estimate from didn't even look at it, AND gave us an estimate that was DOUBLE M&M's estimate. Crazy! Mike's crew arrived promptly at 6:45am and started work. Eight hours later, our house and carport were re-shingled. It looks fantastic. His crew does a great job of cleaning up and not destroying any gardens/flowerbeds around the house. One lighting fixture did get busted, but he ran out and bought us a new one immediately. So happy!"

"Best was simply fantastic.  They were done in one day, quality was great and the clean up just as good.  Literally found just 1 nail and 1 roof shingle (buried in a shrub near the house) after they completed the job.  Highly recommend them.  Saw many houses in the neighborhood take 2, 3, even 4 or more days to have the work done. <br />"

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