"After purchasing our new home, we wanted to freshen it up with an interior paint job. Fortunately, we found Rick Orcutt. He gave us a detailed and very fair estimate for the work, and then his team executed the job beautifully. We were amazed by the quality of their work. Rick Orcutt is an absolute pleasure to work with. He’s punctual, responsive and professional. He makes sure work is done correctly. We would love to work with Orcutt Painting again."

"I claimed a deal for 50% off Junk Hauling and Removal up to 4 Cubic Yards. It turns out that my junk (mostly scrap wood that accumulated over 38 years, because the city won't take it) and landscape timbers didn't qualify due to the extra weight. However, Matt offered a generous discount for being an Angie's List member, which I gladly accepted. He loaded it all into his truck in approximately 30 minutes. I am very satisfied."

"These guys are extremely professional, serious about customer service and do great quality work. I had them redo the entire exterior of my home; strip the roof and siding down the bare sheathing, new roof, new siding, new gutters and repair all the fascia. They stripped 3 layers of old roof off and replaced it then stripped half the siding off the house in the first DAY they were there. Everyone in the neighborhood was asking who these guys were and what their phone number was they were so impressed. There were a couple little things here and there that needed to be tweaked and cleaned up since it was such a big job and so much was changed. Every time I reached out to them I got a response back in less than 12 hours and someone was there fixing it within a day or two. They’re incredibly courteous, polite and value their customers. Hire these guys."

"I needed my garage roof replaced and Lennie with Prestige Roofing was prompt, professional, and honest. After signing a contract with him he started work within a few days and had the project completed in 1 day. I was not able to be at the property the day he and his crew were there, but Lennie sent me photos of the progress throughout the day. I would absolutely hire him again for any future projects"

"Reggie at St Germain Construction did an excellent job of siding my house and detached garage. He quoted me a fixed price, which included all of the major items as well as the small but crucial pieces that I didn't even know that I needed: outside faucet, electrical outlet, linen vent. The vinyl siding was carefully installed over Tyvek, and all the trim work was neatly done. I would definitely use Reggie again, and highly recommend his work."

"I was extremely pleased with this job. Working with Frank was very easy. Whatever he said would be done was done when he said it would be done. Workers were clean and tidy, small, expected hiccups were addressed timely and within budget. I would definitely hire them again and recommend to others. My neighbors, (who look at the outside of my house much more than I do) love the new look! Thanks"

"I interviewed several painters for this massive interior painting job. When I met Abe I knew immediately he was the one I trusted to do the job. He’s intelligent, knowledgeable, honest and courteous. He brought an excellent crew and restored our home beautifully after years of water damage. When they left you’d never know a 3 man painting crew had been in our house for 5 days. If you want the best, hire Abe Schickel."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Newton Center, MA

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.
