"I was really happy with the job that they did. They did a nice job and cleaned up their mess and everything was good. They kept in contact with me. I didn't actually see them doing the job because I was working. With the roof, I had made quite a few changes over the few days that it took them to do it and they were really nice and cooperative."

"Very impressed with responsiveness, professionalism, technology, and value provided by Gunner Roofing. The copper flashing was pulling away from around my chimney and looked like it was in need of repair or replacement. I had previously worked with another well reviewed roofing company on Angie's List that missed my scheduled appointment to examine my chimney flashing. So I was very pleased when Andrew from Gunner showed up exactly when promised, and I was quite fascinated with his use of a drone to take precise aerial photographs of the work to be performed from all angles - a rather tech savvy approach. Gunner provided a detailed estimate within hours, that was only 1/3 the cost of the estimate I ultimately received from that other roofer. Gunner Roofing completed the work on time, and did a very satisfactory job. This was a relatively modest project, but based on my experience, I hope to use Gunner Roofing when it comes time to redo my entire roof."

"Warren and his crew installed our roof in 2012 and they did a more than wonderful job! Warren was always there to answer any questions or concerns we had. Warren came out to look at our roof, we had some shingles missing in several places and he got our insurance to approve and replace our roof. All we had to pay was our deductible. We could definitely tell he had plenty of knowledge in this field. The crew finished our roof in no time, which we were very delighted about. They cleaned everything up before leaving and left no debris. They even ran the magnet detector three times to make sure they left nothing behind. My husband and I were more than pleased with the work and have recommended Warren to many people! Their customer service was outstanding and you can tell Warren truly cares about his customers. They did a great job on our roof and we couldn?t have asked for more.  <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Absolutely professional from start to finish. The owner showed up to bid the job on time, and well dressed in a J.Alexander Polo. He was extremely educational w/ what I was gettting into, so their were no suprises if they were to get the job. The price was competitive and felt most comfortable w/ them--do to the time & knowledge he shared w/ me when giving the estimate. They didn't let me down and actually only exceeded my expectations when doing the roof. They had an eight man crew and everyone seemed to know their job responsibility. They had a guy running the ground the whole time-cleaning up and running a magnet for loose nails. They said they had two roofs to do that day. I thought they were crazy, even though I had a small roof (22.5 square). By 11am they had all the shingles removed, nails pounded down and the roof felted. Come to find out the owners are identical twin brothers who were both on the roof working along w/ the crew. The crew split up after the roof was felted, one brother stayed w/ three others to lay the shingles while the other group went to start the next roof. I was just hoping they got my roof done in a day like they said, It wouldn't suprise me one bit if they got both roofs done like they wanted to. I would refer anyone and everyone to JAlexanderRoofing-they were amazing from start to finish. <br />"

"Mr. Brierly personally inspected the project, went over recommendations with me, and performed the work quickly, efficiently, effectively and for a very fair price. The finished product far exceeded my expectations. A follow-up call was received to assure we were satisfied with the work. Great work ethic and professionalism. A model business. Would definitely hire again and recommend to anyone. P.S. They do more than roofing...ask."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Lakeview, OH

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.
