"They set up appointment and their guys showed up when they said they would. Totally professional, went up on roof to confirm damage and to give me a signed estimate for Insurance company. Now just waiting for insurance company to stop dragging their feet. Gave them a B overall just because they have not actually done the job yet."

"Mark did a soft wash of my roof and cleaned all my gutters thoroughly. I also hired him to power wash my porch and driveway. He did all this for a very fair price, and did a great job, including cleaning everything up afterward. Mark was very responsive and showed up when he said he would. This week, after Irma came through, I had a roof full of debris again. I called Mark to see what he would charge to come and just blow off my roof again, and he came over the same day and did it at no charge. What a great company! I will definitely use him again, and would highly recommend Suncoast Hydro Cleaning."

"Ash (the main installer) and his assistant arrived on time and worked cooperatively with the rosters who were installing a new roof. Ash took great one to inspect the roof & ceiling vent carefully so that he could strategically place the sofa dices in the best possible location. I could definitely hire daylight concept again and consider them to be a very professional company who are knowledgeable and deliver what they promise. Everything went smoothly, and I was very impressed with Ash’s knowledge and expertise. Both (the office manager) did an excellent job I’m very pleased with having more natural light in the house, and would actually like more since I fill have other dark areas in the house of coordinating the appointment so that if coincided with the roofing company’s schedule. I do wish however, that I had been told exactly how much it would cost before the job was completed."

"My husband and I are very pleased with the metal roof that Triple Crown put on our home. We got 3 different quotes, and even though Triple Crown wasn’t the cheapest, we decided to go with them because we’ve been around long enough to know that the cheapest and the best are rarely the same thing. Triple Crown was the only contractor we spoke with who took the time to educate us on the different construction methods for installing a metal roof over shingles and why they prefer to use the batten strip method. Once we had that information, we did our own research (thanks Google) and agreed that was the best application to go with. From start to finish it was evident that Triple Crown does not cut corners on materials, technique, or workmanship. They produce a quality product which they stand behind with an amazing warranty that far exceeded their competitors’ guarantees. When the building inspector from Dade City came out to inspect our finished roof in order to close out the permit, he also spoke highly of the work he regularly sees from Triple Crown. We’re very satisfied knowing that we got a quality roof at a reasonable price, and we couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking for a roofer, we highly recommend this company."

"Alan was on time and prepared to install all of my items (switches, outlets, ceiling fan and thermostats and exterior lights). We walked through what needed to be done and Alan took care of the rest. It took about three hours but all of the installations came out great. I will definitely use New Dawn in the future."

"It started off, like my past 2 experiences in using Kirkey Roofing, very satisfactorily. Unfortunately, there was an accident, which occurred during the roof repair, in which 2 employees of Kirkey Roofing had a 4x4 fall from the roof onto my pool equipment. The result was extensive damage to my pool equipment. This was were Kirkey Roofing went from a very satisfactory company to an OUTSTANDING COMPANY, in my book. I believe it is always easier to rate someone or a company when things go right, but the true measure of something is how they react or handle things when they go wrong, whether or not by accident or not, I immediately contact the office at Kirkey Roofing and informed Susan the Office Mgr. of what had occurred. Susan contacted Linda the Site Mgr., who called me back within 8 mins. I asked Linda whether she wanted to contact a pool repair co., or have me contact my pool repair co., and without any hesitation she directed that I contact my pool repair co. Then within another 27 mins., Linda the Site Mgr. as well as Craig Squier whom I had always dealt with in the past, arrived at my home to inspect the damage. They took full responsibility for the accident and were very sincerely apologetic. They instructed me just send them the bill for the pool repairs and that they would take care of same. The roof repair was then completed that day, in the same fashion as was my 2 other previous repairs, in a very satisfactorily manner. Once all repairs to my pool equipment were completed, I sent Kirkey Roofing the invoice for same and true to their word, they took care of it. Which is why I believe that Kirkey Roofing is an OUTSTANDING COMPANY, that I would not hesitate to use again for any and all roofing repairs that I would need in the future, as well as recommend to all of my family and friends."

"Jerry's came to my rescue again. They've done several repairs on my roof over the past 12 years. This one was needed after I noticed that the fascia was sagging out from the house for a length of about 4 feet which resulted in a trough to catching water against the roof. (This is a roof that was install by my builder, not by Jerry's.) My pest control company checked the area of the sagging fascia for pests and alerted me to the rotting wood situation. The pest company also checked up in the attic and told me that I had rotted OSB and rafters - so I called Jerry's. John from Jerry's came on 5/9/2012 and did the estimate followed by a two man crew coming out on Saturday, 5/12/2012 to do the repairs. They tore out the fascia, soffit and a portion of the roof about 10 feet long by 4 or 5 feet and fixed all the rotted area. It took them about 3 hours. They did a great job picking up the discarded shingles, rotted osb and wood and left my property clean. Although my shingles are 12 years old, you really need to look hard to see the area of the repair"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Longboat Key, FL

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.
