"The workers were on time and each day they made sure that the area around the house was cleaned up.They did some repair on my chimney which turned out better than I expected. Chad did a wonderful job explaining what needed and not needed to be done. He was always available when I had questions . I would recommend them to anyone needing any roof repairs."

"Very pleased with all aspects of this project by Swanson's Roofing. From the initial visit for the estimate to the final clean-up. We got 3 estimates for our project, and Swanson's was the highest of the 3, but they impressed us so much with their proposal, that we decide to go with them. We knew ours would be a difficult project, because all of our existing plywood sheathing was substandard, weak, and decaying. We would need all wood sheathing torn off and replaced as well as new roofing. They gave us plenty of notice when they would be coming. We are retired, so we were at home to watch the whole process. They showed up on time at 7 a.m. the day of the project. The crew descended on our roof like a swarm of locusts. We counted 14 workers on the roof at one time, all wearing proper safety gear I might add. We watched them work up close from our 2nd story windows, and we got to see what hard work this was, but how skillfully they did it. We asked them to add a few pieces of missing attic insulation and insulation baffles for us, and they willingly did so with a smile. The entire project was finished by about 2:30 p.m. Amazing. They spent a long time (all 14 of them) going through the yard to clean up debris, nails, etc. The roof looks beautiful, and should last a long time. Certainteed provides a 50 year transferable warranty, and Swanson's backs that up with their own lifetime guarantee on their workmanship. Swanson's is a company that definitely understands the concept of customer service. This is something that you don't see too often today. I would highly recommend them to all."

"We had a great feeling from the moment we met John during our consultation and, even though Promax was a little more expensive then our other options, we chose Promax because John was just as excited about the project as us and we knew we would get great quality.  The original estimate for completion was three weeks, but it took two weeks and two days.  The last two days were only needed due to a design decision delay on my end.  If I had made a decision earlier, I feel confident all of the work would have been completed in 2 weeks.  <br /> Promax does most of the work themselves, but they do sub-contract for some of their services.  Geno was in charge of our project and he did an excellent job communicating when people would be here and any changes/updates that needed to occur.  Every single person who came to our house was friendly and professional.  Everyone cleaned up after themselves and they dealt really well with our two cats and our two small children, who were here for the last two days of work.  <br /> Promax is not necessarily the least expensive option, but I believe that you get what you pay for and the quality of work that we have is amazing.  We get so many great comments on everything that has been done and we have a lot of people ask us for contact information.  I am hard pressed to find one piece of the renovation that is my favorite, but the 7 foot wide barn door that Promax built and installed is truly stunning and quite the masterpiece of our basement.  <br /> I would most definitely recommend Promax to anyone who needs renovations done and when we plan any work in the future, I know exactly who we will call first."

"Our "only" negative comment about Ground Zero Shelters is that they do not come to a persons residence to give the sales pitch and demonstration. You must go to their showroom or see their product at a home show. This being said, we were extremely happy with the sales experience, reminders and installation of our shelter. They called about 10 days prior to the installation for a reminder, their installers called the day before and the morning of the installation to remind us that they would be at our home at the designated time. They showed up as promised and were completed with the installation in less than 1 1/2 hours time! Thank you Ground Zero!"

"Ernie Haas provided a very thorough examination of our roof which enabled us (after much back and forth with our roofer (DCF Contracting)) to ensure that all necessary and required repairs were made to our roof. Mr. Haas stayed in contact with us for more than a month to ensure that any questions or issues we had were addressed."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Kenney, IL

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.
