"When we started looking at options for replacing our roof, we were debating between replacing with shingles or getting a metal roof. After the meeting to get a quote for our roof, while it is more expensive than replacing with shingles, our new roof has a lifetime warranty. When our roof was installed, it was completed in one day. We are very pleased with our new roof and thankful we went with Shield."

"From my first contact with Bone Dry Roofing and all throughout the installation of my new roof, everyone I have had contact with has been professional, polite and very helpful. They kept me informed of step and sent pictures and video to show me exactly what they were doing and seeing. I originally thought this was going to be a painful, stressful process but they have made it a positive, pleasurable experience."

"The estimator for Old Fort was prompt and courteous, and provided a good estimate for just what I wanted.  I decided to go with another contractor that handled both roofing and siding for my project.  I was pleased with the service and price I received from Old Fort and would consider using them in the future. <br />"

"Rick has a great attitude. No job is too small or seemingly too large. I initially hired him just to help me out with all those small jobs that were hard for me to do myself and in the process found a wonderful carpenter who will be a wonderful asset for future projects. Good, good guy! $35 an hour is a little high in my opinion, but he works efficiently. I don't know - that could be the going rate. I tried contacting others and they took so long to get back to me that I decided just to give Rick and crack at it and see how it went. It went very well."

"Michael was very punctual for our appointment.  He provided me with a prompt summary of what I need to replace a roof on an older home.  During this visit he was also able to accommodate another request I had to inspect another roof for repair (I had not scheduled this earlier but the location was very close).  He was able to provide me with two options regarding the repair after he inspected the roof.  I look forward to working with him in the future. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in New Haven, 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.
