"Fredy and Andrea at Global Roofing combine to provide excellent customer service with high quality installation. From quote to complete the entire process was smooth. We were looking at metal roofing first and learned quickly that these folks know a lot about the options, potential issues and installation. Ultimately we went with CertainTeed asphalt shingles due to supply chain price increases for metal, a limited color selection, and because I tend to walk on my roof for a few reasons. On the 1st scheduled day the crew arrived on time and ready to work. They hung tarps and netting to collect all debris and protect shrubs , etc. They moved fast and efficiently with a big enough crew to clear old shingles and start installing new by mid-afternoon. At the end of the day they cleaned everything up, and I do mean everything. By end of day two they were done, once again cleaning everything before leaving. We were very impressed with Global and definitely recommend them for your roofing project."

"My ceiling started dripping on Saturday. <br /> I called Doug on Sunday - had a response within 2 hours. He said that he might be able to have his partner come to the house on Monday, or he could guarantee Tuesday morning and explained his minimum charge. Sure enough at 8am on Tuesday, he was at our house - our problem was big enough that to do a complete job, they would exceed the minimum charge time frame. Doug notified my wife of this and she authorized them to keep going. <br /> She informed them that we might have another area that might need treatment - they completed the initial area and then tackled the second area. I talked with her on the phone and she informed me that some of the snow that they cleared from the roof was against a basement window - they cleared that snow and cleared all of the snow off our decks. When I got home, the entire roof in the area of the leak was clear - the ice dams were gone, as was all of the snow. We have a couple of areas that could be future problems, but right now, our problems are solved. They could have recommended an immediate clearing of the potential problem areas, but, instead recommended we watch for problems - this meant that our immediate problems were solve - without inflating the bill. <br /> Doug was very professional and his crew (he ended up calling in a third person) were friendly. I think that the service was fairly priced - expensive, but priced at or below what was quoted. <br /> This winter in Minnesota has been an odd one - the snow has come in small increments - but has never melted. Quite frankly, I hope that we don't need Doug's ice dam removal in the future - but will feel comfortable calling him again. <br />"

"Ted and his team were awesome! We had our house, garage, and screened in gazebo roof done. The team did a fantastic job quick and easy no issues. Whole project for 3 roofs was done in 4 days of work. Ted and team was a delight to work with and went the extra mile. With our work being done in the fall they left our yard looking better than before they started. Would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"They did a terrific job.  They were clearly lower.  They actually did a fancier job than I even specified.  I sent out the specifications I wanted.  But to meet the 30 year guarantee for the warranty they had to even put more ice & shield on it than I felt necessary.  They just included that in their price because they wanted to meet all the requirements for the warranty, a 30 year guarantee.  They were authorized.  In other words, a roofer has to be authorized first to be able to give the guarantee you know what I’m saying.  Then the roofing company has a stringent requirement of everything that must be done.  So it was even better than I wanted.  And their price was clearly the best.  There was lower prices from other companies, who wasn't guaranteed by anybody.  You know what I'm saying.  I had like 3 more quotes than I intended.  I didn't want to annoy a lot of people.  So I contacted 3.  They were kinda slow.  So then I contacted 3 more and then all the sudden all of them came and did an estimate.  So I got 6 estimates.  Because it didn't seem like the first ones were like moving.  So anyways I got 6 estimates and they were hands down the best.  There were one or two ones slightly cheaper but they weren't gonna follow my specifications, you know what I'm sayin' and it wouldn't be guaranteed because they weren't authorized to give a guarantee.  H&R roofing met the qualifications.  I got the guarantee sent to me by the warranty company.  It's pro-rated after 15, you know.  They went above and beyond.  I'm a structural engineer and I know a lot about roofing.  So I know exactly how I want it.  And for somebody who doesn't, they don't even know what to ask for.  Just ask for I want a guarantee by the roofing manufacturer.  And then, the things they don't even know about will be done because the roofing manufacturer requires these things to be done in order to have the guarantee.  So therefore someone who doesn't know anything, the one thing they should say is I want the roof guaranteed by the roofing manufacturer and then they can step back because the roofing manufacturer looks at their supply list and the stuff that was delivered.  So therefore someone who doesn't know anything would get it done right.  I have to say there's no short coming whatsoever.  The one short coming, I mean they did their best. It was a very, very hot day and they put tarps over all the shrubs and stuff, but it was such a hot day that the tarps got so warm that they burnt the top of some of the shrubs.  It was like new growth, you know it's the Spring.  I don't know what could have been done.  The only thing that could have been done was don't do it in late Spring.  They finished it 2 weeks ago.  And the thing is I was very surprised that the shrubs were burnt.  It's something, you can't spray water on the tarps because there's a lot of crud coming down and you'd make soup you know what I'm sayin'. So I don't know what you could do to solve that.  It's a time of the year issue.  It's also the shrubs and flowers that were around.  I'd recommend them to anybody. Their price was distinctly less.  I mean some of the prices I had were almost $10,000 for the same job."

"We just had a new roof installed on our home and garage. They were at our home at 7am ready to go and stayed until the project was complete! Eric is very easy to deal with and the foreman Mike was here with the employees all day. They were very friendly and very accommodating to even to the "special" requests I had. They did an outstanding job! When the job was done my yard looked amazing they cleaned up so well, other than seeing my amazing new roof you wouldn't have even known they were here! I highly recommend EAW Roofing."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Oakham, 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.
