"Steve came out in mid-July on time, as planned, for the estimate. He was very personable and professional. He said that because it was a small job that he would need to fit it in between larger jobs.He felt certain that it could be done within 5-6 weeks. I was fine with that, as long as it was completed before the end of November/early December. For various reasons, the job kept getting delayed until being completed at the very end of September. My main concern was that the product be applied thickly enough. He applied one 5-gallon can of the Gaco silicone material. He assured me that was the proper amount. The information I found online indicated close to twice that amount needed to be applied. I tried to contact him regarding this and never heard back. He even left the wand from his power washer at my house, which I told him about. He never came back to get it. In addition, there was an area under the eaves where the product was not completely applied - more of an eyesore than anything, but I see it every time I look at it from my backyard. I waited this long thinking that he would either contact me or come back for his wand, but he didn't. Everything following the estimate was less than I expected. I would not recommend this company or use them again."

"We found Landmark construction energy crew, after being frustrated in the past from other contractors. From the initial meeting that we had with Charlie, we were impressed. Their values of customer satisfaction and their deliver everything they said. Charlie was the manager of the work and he was on time for all the meetings that we had with him. He was very straight, kindly and motivated to be invited into our house. He came back and took all the measurements that he needed for the kitchen, asked us many questions about what we would like to include in the new kitchen and 3 days after, he brought us a 3D design for us to look at and see how it will most likely look like. It was exciting to see how fast they could generate a nice design. Charlie knew what he’s doing and we were sure he has done this type of jobs many times before. Their prices are reasonable. We wanted our kitchen finished as soon as possible, so we agreed with Charlie to start the following week. That gave us little time to buy all the appliances, hardware, countertops, tiles Etc… Charlie personally went with us to 2 showrooms where we picked out our tiles and countertops. He also helped us to search and buy all the options for the (sink, faucet, hardware and more…). To be honest, I was probably a nightmare type of work. We moved out of our place during the month of the remodeling and we were a little worried that something would go wrong and we would end up on a terrifying remodeling show. Now after this remodeling is over, we can say clearly that is nothing to worry about when Landmark construction energy crew are working at your house. Their workers was clean, friendly, willing to answer questions. I discovered that Charlie visits the job site every few days, but he too sincerely cares about your home. He always called regarding the schedule, timeline or if there was a problem that need to be solved. We asked for changes to the electric wiring after the tiles have been installed. Would I recommend them to others? Absolutely yes. We will refer this company to all our friends."

"We had Ocean Seven Builders redo our roof after a small leak turned into a bigger problem. Ron was the one we dealt with, and he just felt easy to talk to from the start. No pressure, no upselling, just explained what made sense. The crew showed up when they said they would and worked pretty steadily through the job. What I noticed most was how clean they kept things?no nails or trash left around. The roof looks great and we?ve had zero issues since."

"The crew did an excellent job. Very professional..answered all my questions. They checked for any rotten areas, replaced anything that was needed. did a good clean up. They tightened all the gutters and brought roof up to code. The roofing materials are of good quality and reasonably priced (Malarkey). The crew worked long hours in very hot weather to make sure that the roof was replaced properly and leak-free. The office crew were very polite and answered my questions very professionally. The estimator did an excellent job of noticing what needed to be replaced/repaired and presented that in the proposal. I would use Harbert again."

"The job with Sustainable Living Builders went wonderfully. They stayed on budget and got all of the work done in a timely manner as we discussed before hiring them for the job. They are excellent at communicating customer needs and did exactly what we instructed them to do. They replaced our roof and it looks great now. We could not be more pleased with our new deck and back patio as well. Sustainable Living Builders are a tremendous new asset to Sonoma County! Thanks SLB!"

"Chris and his crew, Mike and Josh, are outstanding! Chris is very customer service oriented - he will deliver what you want, not what he wants. Chris is very creative and talented - so is my wife - they worked together wonderfully and Chris contributed a lot of good ideas about how to improve what we were asking for. They were on the job every day until the job was done. They did high quality work and were great to work with. Not only would I hire him again, I did - to replace some siding on a rental house. You may have to wait awhile to get on his schedule, but you won't go wrong by hiring him."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Occidental, CA

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.
