"Tom Lee Roofing did our roof in the Sunset District of San Francisco about four years ago (right as we were coming out of COVID). His team is professional and works efficiently. He walked us through the project prior to starting, frequently inspected the work, and offers to inspect future projects that may impact the warranty (e.g., if you need to put in a kitchen vent). We are so pleased with his work."

"Daddario Roofing was the third roofing company I had give me an estimate to replace the entire composite roof of 25 years.  Even though I heard some tho'ts from others that the roof had some life left in it, Daddario was the only one who said I didn't need full replacement as yet and that they could repair the damaged shingles (from heat) over the garage and then vent the garage for better air flow.  I was delighted to not have to do full replacement and spend much more money.  The original roof had  40 year composite shingles and only the garage roof had really suffered due to extreme heat in the garage itself.  I had no venting in the garage whatsoever.  <br /> Working with Steve, Edgar and their staff in the office was a pleasure.  They always got back to me in a timely manner and were pleasant to work with.  The estimate, work authorization, and payment were all done online which was new to me, but worked out well.  The roofer, Juan, was professional, punctual, and tidy.  Everything was cleaned up well when he completed the job.  I was very pleased. <br />"

"Ben's Roofing handled our industrial roofing job like true professionals. They completed the job ahead of schedule, they found ways to work with the tenant in the building, and their communication throughout the whole process was outstanding. We appreciated Gustavo's detailed proposal when we were first seeking bids for this job, and this was a big part of why we selected his company. Now that the project is complete, we feel we absolutely made the right choice choosing Ben's Roofing for our project."

"Excellent. I lived next door to the property that was having the new roof installed and I got to watch every step of the project. One worker in particular stood out as extraordinary and his name was Jose. He worked non-stop every single day he was here and in my opinion went above and beyond the call of duty. Truly he was remarkable and Signature Roofing is lucky to have him on their payroll. Thank you again Jose for all of your hard work!"

"The company started at 9 am with a crew of 6 and a hoist truck that took old materials and delivered new shingles and felt. Crew left at about 3 pm with the roof covered in felt and the new shingle bundles stacked on the peaks. The following day, no one showed up and a wind and rain storm tore some of the felt loose and let rainwater into the attic. This soaked an area of the attic insulation, dripped through a heating outlet in the living room ceiling, and dripped onto the piano and the wall-to-wall carpet. After 2 hours of calls to the company, a man in a small pickup arrived, saw the problem and borrowed our ladder to go onto the roof and use the shingle bundles to hold down the felt. This distribution of the bundles apparently should have been done in the first place. The next day, the crew arrived and finished shingling the roof but left the whole shingles, shingle scraps, paper wrappings, flashing scraps, and coils of nails in 3 large piles on the roof. More calls to the company leaving messages about cleaning up but without any prompt response. Two days later, 2 workers showed up about noontime and picked up the debris and the wet carpeting which I had torn out before it got moldy. At last the roof was done and the question of water damage was now the issue. The company paid for the material cost of the replacement insulation which I installed after scraping out the old 50's insulation and applying a mildew-cide paint on the attic surface of the ceiling.and for an area rug, (my choice) rather than wall-to-wall carpeting."

"Overall, I was pleased with the service provided and the quality of work. After the re-roofing was completed, we did have a leak near one of our skylights, which we didn't have before the re-roofing. However, Steve was quick to respond to this problem. He explained what caused the problem and implemented a fix. This problem and another minor problem prevented me from giving an and quot;excellentand quot; rating. <br /> Steve was very good at answering our questions prior to winning the contract with us. He was patient and professional. <br /> <br /> <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Millbrae, CA

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.
