"Contractor came round in person to provide an estimate, arrived on time and was extremely business-like - not pushy or aggressive.  The estimate wasn't the cheapest but chose this contractor because highly rated on Angie's List.  Wasn't around while they did the work but it was completed within 2 weeks of my giving the go-ahead to proceed and the finished result was of a very high standard - the replacement of the rotted soffit was particularly well done.  Writing this review over 1 year after the service was provided and I have had no problems with the roof."

"They did a great job removing the old skylight, which they informed me was the wrong one for my roof anyway. Within a few minutes, they were able to locate a brand new skylight which was the right one for my roof and installed it within a few hours. The work was done well, and they cleaned up very nicely afterwards. By the way, I showed them a problem with my awning and a small leak in my window pane, and they repaired both at no extra cost."

"The All Weather Guard team did a lot of work in one smooth, efficiently coordinated day. Eighty seven years and three layers of old roof tiles came off, new ones were installed, and no trace of debris was left. All done before the sun set. The next day damaged fascia boards were repaired for gutter installation on the following workday. We now have no water in the basement when it rains and the home looks beautiful. Thank you Brian and your team for a wonderful job done!"

"Barb and her team are fantastic! We received a letter from our home owner's insurance company telling us that we needed to have mold and lichen removed from our roof or face costly penalties. As new home owners, the last thing we needed was to replace our roof after all the expenses of closing, moving, and making repairs. Barb came out to assess our roof, which turned out to be in great shape. Some close-proximity trees created the mold and lichen situation. With an expert consultation and some helpful instructions, Barb set us up for service. The team that came out to clean our roof was friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, and safety-focused. We had our roof and siding cleaned, which brought both amazing curb appeal and peace of mind knowing that we no longer had harmful lichen and mold that could damage our roof. I would highly recommend Roof Renew Pros LLC."

"After getting quotes from 4 other companies for replacing our roof, we picked Tom Jannace Roofing. Several of our quotes were around the same price, but Tom who lives locally was able to convince me that they could do the job within a few days, as well as include all the things we wanted done in the price. As I was uncomfortable picking a roof color without seeing the colors installed on a roof, Tom drove me around pointing out the colors I was choosing from. Our roof was very professionally installed less than a week later. The workman carefully put up tarps to avoid throwing the old roof shingles on the flower beds. They cleaned up very carefully afterwards. The new roof looks amazing."

"DiConstanza Home improvement is an excellent company. The owner Tony was very attentive and polite and the job was excellent. The cleanup was also excellent. Every piece of shingle and debris was picked up in an efficient manner. the roofing team went above and beyond cleaning up by raking, sweeping our patio and general cleanup. We definitely recommend this company. If you are looking for an excellent company for your home improvement, this is a top company. I recommend this company very highly."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Melville, NY

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.
