"I recently purchased a house in Lansing. After purchase I noticed a musty smell and found that the roof was previously damaged. I reached out to 4 local Lansing contractors and 2 regional contractors. Of the six, only Elieff Brothers Roofing gave me a quote that was appropriate to the code for a low slope roof. On installation day we found that the previous roofing contractor had violated building code and used some unorthodox materials and methods and changed the scope of work to do my job right. Steve (one of the Elieff brothers) was on my roof immediately to figure out what was going on. Steve explained the situation, provided evidence of previous substandard work, went over all the options including cost and quality so that I could make an informed decision. With their many years in the business in Lansing, he was able to provide me with several options for insulation replacement, mold remediation contractors that he trusted. Steve and team were able to coordinate with the additional contractors to get my roof done .. and done right. I can't thank Steve, Rhett, DJ, Cooper and his awesome crew enough. This was basically the most stressful house nightmare I've ever had and these guys just kept telling me that it's nothing they hadn't seen before and it's going to be solid when they are done. These guys bent over backwards for me. The quality is top notch, their teams are well trained and get it done. Just amazing. You guys knocked it out of the park. I am so glad I chose Elieff Brothers Roofing. Even though this job turned out to be bigger than expected, had this been a standard roof and deck replacement this would have been easily the best price of all the local contractors. They had the honest price for the work they did. Again, they where the only company that quoted the job to meet building code requirements. These guys should be on your list of roofers to call, you won't be disappointed. I wish I could give six stars. They are that good at what they do. I'm looking forward to living under this solid, well insulated roof for a really long time. Thanks again Elieff Brothers!"

"Tear off and installation went well very large job. Work on the roof was done with attention to detail. High quality shingles were used with a life time certificate warranty on the shingles and work. I would recommend them to anyone that has a project."

"Great job well executed. These are very high quality professionals capable of diagnosing root causes of your problem, digging out the construction code and educating you on the right thing to do. You can hire cheaper handyman/chimney guys and get a recurring problem or you can hire these licensed professionals and take care of things the right way. Wish I had never used anyone else!"

"They were very patient with my window selection. I tend to research things online before buying them, and they got several different sample windows for me to look at and touch before I chose. The work was done promptly and well. They answered all my questions. I would definitely use them again. The only thing they could improve on is picking up the aluminum nails around the house. I've been finding one here and there since the snow melted. <br />"

"The shingles on our house were a disaster. Dan Jr. gave us a very reasonable quote and described all the work that would need to be performed. Most companies were quoting 3 days to complete the job but Dan Jr. promised 1 day. They scheduled me in immediately and had a crew of 10 on site, on time and ready to go. The new roof looks incredible and no debris was left behind. They were all very professional and conscientious. Excellent Job! <br />"

"We cannot say enough good things about Carpentry Plus. We were extremely pleased with their expertise, professionalism, and work. In addition, Brad and his family are so friendly and personable that we felt like they were old friends. We hired them to put vinyl siding on our 2-story wood house and 2-car garage. As the work proceeded we discovered that there was extensive water damage to the wood in several places on both the house and garage. These included the chimney, the three-season room, and the bottom plate around the perimeter of the garage walls. As a master carpenter Brad Green resolved these issues in a creative and effective way. After replacing all the rotted wood in these areas, he installed flashing around the garage and closed-in three-seasons room to help prevent future damage. The three-seasons room was in such seriously bad shape that it almost needed to be rebuilt. All these issues added a lot of extra work and time to the project. Brad let us know every step of the way what was happening with the job and we were grateful that Brad agreed to take the time to do the extra work--well beyond the original agreement. We have not had any water in the garage since the work was completed and we are so happy to have our three-seasons room repaired. And the siding looks beautiful generating compliments from our neighbors. Really great attention to detail!"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Lansing, MI

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.
