"Communications and scheduling were awful. Took forever and 7 calls to actually get them to send the quote. When I call they say Jorge will call back, he doesn't. Call him, and his voicemailbox is always full. Three times the roofers were scheduled to come and they never showed up, never called. Really regret using them. When the roofer finally showed up, he was a sub contractor that didn't really know what he was supposed to do. Felt bad for him, he had to bring his little boy who just wandered around my back yard while he worked on my roof. The actual work seems fine, it's the whole process of working with them that is awful. Can't figure out who they actually are, Findlay Roofing, Roof Roof, Mighty Dog Roofing? That was probably my first warning flag."

"Eric Schott was a pleasure to work with. Reliable, responsive and gave a fair price. Grayson the project manager, while young, assisted his crew with whatever they needed done on the ground. Arturo was the lead roofer and he and all the crew worked tirelessly in the extreme heat. They were impressive to watch. Now we have a beautiful new roof and will be getting our gutters later this week. I trust they will go as smoothly as the roof did. If you are looking for someone that does what they say in this day and age, look no further. Southern Roofing won’t let you down!"

"Do Not Hire! Was given a small simple list of projects to complete for my girlfriend in Murphy, NC. He handed the work off to his assistant David who barely began the project before he abandoned his client. Never returned phone calls or any messages and did not show up at scheduled times. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!"

"Please choose any other company to go to. When Nick Francis came to do the inspection and give an estimate, he was great. Very professional and courteous. I paid the percentage needed up front. When the job went over to Ashley, she was communicative and keeping in the loop on delays due to rain and other unforseen factors. They came out to fix my roof, were up there for a few hours, and then were done. When I later went out, I noticed that the roof was raised in one spot and bowing in another. I reached out to Ashley who said "Received thank you. I will create a case for you. I will let you know as soon as I can get someone out there". They were able to get the 2 who had originally come out back again the next day. When they came, and I went outside with the gentleman, they saw the problem immediately and the older gentleman who was here last time temporized by saying "We didn't have plywood last time, so we did the best we could. We have plywood this time, so will get it all fixed up.". That upset me a bit, because it sounds like they knew they did not do as good of a job as they could have the first time. I reached out to Ashley about this, and her response was "These guys that I have sent are good and thorough. It was my fault for not having them prepared properly. With the work order I had we thought the only possible decking would be the small spot from the satellite. We definitely don't want to short cut or leave any work done incorrectly." So I let them do their thing. They were done much quicker the second time, and when I went out to see it, they had replace much more than they had the first time. There were also still dips. When I asked about them, I was also told by the roofer that to get rid of them, and 8x4 section of roof would need to be torn up so the plywood could be put in. Ashley said she would talk the them about it. That interaction was on June 4th. I heard nothing back until I reached out again on June 12th after having received an invoice to my email stating the job was complete. I asked if the job was considered complete and received this response. "I apologize for not responding earlier. So the repair is complete. It is the way the roof is built that it looks a little un even. We would have to replace a good bit of wood to make it look completely flat." None of the rest of my roof is uneven or has dips. On June 18th, I was called about the invoice and asked to speak to a manager about this issue. Andrew called me, and we discussed all that I have written above, and he asked that I send him pictures. His response was the following: "In both of those photos, the dips in the roof carry on up past where we replaced shingles. That is an existing decking dip. Not due to any rot or installation errors, rather spacing between rafters. It is more noticeable because of the new shingles." I replied with: "I am not able to see the dip in the other parts of the roof personally. I would like to ask for a discount on the remaining balance if possible. Having to go back and forth, and having people come work on my roof above my office twice, was a lot." I received no reply for 2 days. When he finally reached back out, he asked what I thought an appropriate discount would be, I stated 35 percent. Since now I had a roof with dips that they were not going to fix. His reply was: 35% is not a fair and appropriate discount. The facts are that we sent all of the appropriate materials, nothing was incorrect. As I stated on the phone we replaced decking all where it was necessary and satisfactory to the scope of the contract. I'm sorry for any inconvenience you had, but the second trip was in an effort to appease you and lessen any visual dips. It will never be non-existent because of the existing framing and age of the structure. We have made every effort to satisfy you for a minimum repair charge. For an additional effort to resolve this, I will discount your project $100. The condescension was palpable. I replied with this, again repeating what had been told to me, in writing, by Ashley and ended with: So, the appropriate materials were not sent out the first time. The second trip was to fix the first trip, not to "appease" me. His response was: The only bad decking accounted for per the contract was where the satellite was, which was sent out and replaced. I am offering a discount on work that was performed per the contract. Is this satisfactory? I responded with by again reiterating what I had already told him and Ashley about what the roofer had said. This was June 20th, and I never received a response. Until Yesterday July 9th when I received a Notice to Lein in the mail. When I asked him about it, he responded with "You have an outstanding balance you are refusing to pay on a contracted repair job.". I never once refused to pay or made any hint that I was going to refuse to pay. Not one time. I would run as far and as fast as you can from this company"

"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Murphy, NC

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.
