"They repaired and fixed roof venting that had been done improperly. They were good to deal with (they explained how improper sealing was causing leaks during high winds) and pricing seemed reasonable."

"It went great. It turned out our chimney was ready to fall down, so he recommended a mason, who rebuilt the chimney over the weekend, then work could proceed with the roof. Roof replacement was pretty uneventful. Old roof debris started sliding off into the neighbors' yards, but they cleaned it up and the neighbors were happpy. They left our yard cleaner than they found it and gutters in better shape as well. It hasn't rained much since the new roof was installed, so can't report on that aspect yet, but everything else implied they knew what they were doing."

"Angel and his 8-person crew from Apex Roofing completed re-roofing my 4BR colonial in one day! My roof needed a lot of TLC and Apex provided it: fascia board and plywood replacement where needed, new ridge vents, skylights, and more. They even shingled my cat house at no additional charge! Professional, prompt, great communicators, excellent clean-up, fair price. Very highly recommended!"

"I hired Action Roofing to repair our asphalt shingled roof which was damaged in a windstorm. While Stephen was here he also repaired the flashing around our chimney and fixed a leaking skylight. It is hard to find a roofing company you can trust that is not going to charge you an arm and a leg. Stephen did an excellent job! The work was all done in less than a day. His pricing was very fair and affordable. And the work professionally done. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for honest, quality work, done by a professional. I was so impressed, I hired him for some additional work."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Manchester, NH

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.
