"I was referred to Mike with Roof it Right because I mentioned to an acquaintance that I was having issues with my gutters and soffits. Mike called me to ask about the details, then sent someone out that day to give an estimate. It was a reasonable price to repair the fascia and soffits and install a brand new gutter system. It should prevent any further problems and it looks really good... it improves curb appeal and adds value to my house. Also Sergei was very professional and easy to work with. I have no complaints."

"It took a few weeks to have the repairs made because they were backed up, which I understood would be the case from the beginning. However, I received weekly text updates and a call when it was time to schedule. The work was completed in a short amount of time, and everything looks great."

"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

"I have no idea whey this business has so many 5 star reviews, my guess is that they are fake. That said, this is the WORST business I have ever had the displeasure of working with. The owner is a terrible person. I have to dumb this review down quite a bit to communicate to him: didn't return calls in a timely manner, late, his employee was confused on how to do his job, I think he cut corners to save time and money, and finally, the siding looks cheap. I have to contact another home improvement business to fix the terrible work. So, more money down the drain! don't hire him, just don't."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in London, KY

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.
