"Great. Very professional. Salesman was knowledgeable explaining everything that would be done. Give me a detailed estimate folder that he prepared and presented after he surveyed my roof. nother salesman looked at my roof and gave me his business card with a number on it. No explanation. So I hired Shield. The 4 man crew was very efficient and tore off the old roof, replaced rotten wood, installed my new roof, all in one day. After the job was finished Shield came and inspected to make sure everything had been done correctly. I am happy that my new roof is guaranteed for 50 years to. Piece of mind........I know if I have any problems they would correct it. So I was very satisfied."

"They did what I wanted them to do.  They added to the length of the ice dam over my heat pump as I requested during construction. <br /> They cleaned up and left nothing behind.  I never heard a foul word from any of the workers. .The work was delayed a few days by weather.  This was unavoidable.  I understand a wet metal roof is very unsafe to be on. <br />"

"Mike climbed up to see the problem and give me an estimate. He quickly found the problem and offered to fix it right then. He gathered the needed supplies from his truck and repaired my roof right then. I had multiple nails loose and some caulk needed done along the ridge. He looked thoroughly to make sure all problem areas were addressed and corrected."

"I didn't go with them because the estimate was very high. The estimated price was $14,000. The guy who came out was nice. I think he very much overestimated the number. I think it is called squares of roofing that I need; he said I needed like maybe six more than every other company that I got an estimate from said. I thought there was something odd about that and his price was about $6000 more than the company that I ended up going with. I would give him a ‘C' on my overall experience based on their price but the guy who came out was nice and he showed up which is better than half the contractors who I call. He was punctual; he came on time. I would consider using them but I would be a little weary about the estimate because he did tell me I needed more shingles than what every other company said."

"We started with wanting new windows in our sunroom. GBS was the only company that worked with us to get top quality windows for that space that was always cold or hot. They were comparable in price with other companies, they were punctual, gave quality installation and checked with us later for our opinion of their work. We had them replaced all of our windows over a three year period. Excellent home town company."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Kilsyth, WV

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.
