"I would like to thank Brad Hosick from Heads Roofing for his prompt attention regarding storm damage to our roof. Brad responded by promptly supplying a quote and working with our insurance company. He was very knowledgeable, honest, and customer oriented. The roofers came out in a timely manner and finished when Brad said they would. He made this experience comfortable and satisfying; moreover, we were impressed with his professionalism. Thanks Brad and Head’s, we would not hesitate to recommend you."

"They were out very quickly to do the estimate, and installed the roof within a week once i hired them for the job. The roof had been leaking so their timeless was greatly appreciated. We had some damage to our decking that accounted for the leaks. They repaired that as well. They also installed new roof on my father-in-law's business and he was very pleased. Again were very quick to get work done."

"Robert was very responsive and told me that I could have my leak fixed rather than replacing my whole roof. He repaired the leak and I haven't had any more issues with it. A few years later he came back after a storm and was honest with me that I didn't need replacement after a few shingles were lifted by wind. I really appreciate his honesty."

"At 5 years and 2 weeks the unit stopped working, They came out & said that I would need a new unit..  I reminded them that the unit was only 5 years old & they said according to there records it was 2 weeks out of warranty.  I ask them to work with me & they said that CARRIER enforces that policy and that I would need to pay for another unit. <br /> I called SCHIFF AIR CONDITIONING - HEATING.  They came out installed a TRANE 10 YEAR PARTS AND LABOR, GPS-2400- Air purifier, put  on a sensor ( at no charge & I didn't even ask them for this) on the heating unit inside the house that would shut off the units if it sensed water.  This all for a price less than a Carrier Unit from Shekell. <br /> Shiff also fabricated and installed a large drain pan for the entire system, which Shekell said would be to costly <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Mackey, IN

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.
