"We had an excellent experience with Garcia Roofing from obtaining the estimate of cost to the completion of the job. They were professional and did a fantastic job. Everyone that we dealt with at Garcia was friendly and very helpful to us. The crew worked extremely hard, arrived early each day and worked until dark to complete the job. Our new roof looks beautiful and our neighbors have stopped by to tell us how good it looks. We are so glad that we went with Garcia Roofing and would recommend anyone we know that needs roofing repair or replacement to use them as well."

"Everything was complete in a timely manner. Estimate was given the day after I called, and the repairs made just a couple of days after that. Reliable, courteous, and reasonable price for a small job. I won’t hesitate to call them back when I need the whole roof replaced one day."

"It was a small repair, but they did a great job. They took care of it for me. I would use their service again. I liked the fact that they came in fixed it. I wasn't home, but they did it and didn't worry about the money. They came back and I paid them. THey told me that they could do it even if I wasn't there. They did the work, they knew I wasn't going to be there, and they collected the money later."

"I'm extremely happy with the work Elbert's team did and with all my interactions with Elbert himself. The team does good work at a good pace, and Elbert himself was always willing to talk about any difficulties and propose solutions for me to choose from. I would absolutely recommend him and he would be my first choice for carrying out any future improvements or repairs to my home. <br /> AHC was not the cheapest bid I recieved, but it was fair, believable, and fixed-price. The only change orders we had to do were one for removing the wall (since the work couldn't be estimated initially without bringing in a structural engineer) and another later on when I decided to ask Elbert to have his team put bamboo flooring on the staircase they built. Both were within my expected ranges. <br />"

"Jeff is truly a "Jack of All Trades", he spent a day at our daughter's house in New Orleans doing everything from power washing to installing dimmers, trimming doors and hanging curtain rods. He arrived with a well equipped trailer furnished to conquer any job and works quickly and efficiently. No job too big or small and his rates are very reasonable. We will definitely be calling Jeff again!"

"Repairs to my Mother's roof were good, survived a 4 inch rain fall in two hours. The work on the workshop went very well. It started to rain about an hour before completion of the job but the guys kept on working and finished. The temperature had dropped a lot but they kept right on until the job was done. In the dark and rain they cleaned up the site very well."

"Phoenix Exteriors was a godsend. They donated their time and money to help us. We are a small nonprofit called the HALT Club in Yorkville that provides a meeting place for twelve step recovery meetings like AA, NA, CA, and DRA. Our roof had been damaged last year in a storm. Our insurance company only paid a small amount for a temporary fix, which we did. But we could not afford to have the proper permanent repairs done. The first company came to patch it up but 5 months later the roof started leaking again and the water damaged the 2 story ceiling which we had to rip out. We weren’t sure what to do or how we were going to pay to fix it. Steve and his team at Phoenix Exteriors heard of our predicament and offered to help. They were amazing and donated all the materials and labor. They not only fixed the damage they redid the whole roof which included tearing off all the old shingles and replacing the damaged plywood underneath. They were very professional and had the whole job was done very quickly. We highly recommend them not only for their superior work but because of their generous and kind hearts. The world needs more people and companies like this. Thank you so much for all your help, we are very, very grateful. ~ The HALT Club"

"Everyone told me that home repair companies would likely be taking only big roofing jobs after Hurricane Zeta hit New Orleans and that I might have to wait a month or longer to replace a single missing shingle that blew off during the Category 2 hurricane. While it definitely doesn’t meet the definition of a “big job,” even a single missing shingle can result in potentially significant (not to mention expensive) water damage inside the home the next time it rains. So, we called our go-to home-repair company, One Man and A Toolbox, the Monday after the hurricane. It isn’t often that I leave friends slack-jawed but that’s just what happened when I informed them that One Man and a Toolbox was sending one of their experienced workers (Henry) out to repair our roof the very next day (Tuesday). Henry not only repaired the roof shingle in question but also fixed another errant shingle he spotted while up on our roof. Total cost: $80. We are so grateful to One Man and a Toolbox for their amazing customer service and professional quality work — especially after a hurricane. This company is a class act. If it sounds like I’m a happy (and loyal) customer, you would be absolutely correct."

"Ok - I don't know anything about gutters but I do know when I need them. I used this company for our high pitched roof home. They installed gutters in three areas just the way I requested. I then used them for our rental home to replace a gutter that was installed incorrectly. They not only installed them correctly but made suggestions to the existing gutter system that have proved invaluable for pushing water off of the house. I like them and highly recommend them."

"Ken and his team did an amazing job. He was extremely responsive and delivered on a very tight timeline. I was not in New Orleans at the time when the work was being completed and Ken kept me updated with pictures and text messages throughout the four days. The work performed included the removal of columns that supported the main carrying beam of the house and a column that supported a set of stairs. Ken and his team removed this columns and installed an LVL to support my second floor and re-supported the stairs all within 4 days! I enjoyed worked with Ken and would highly recommend him for your project."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in New Orleans, LA

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.
