"Lost some ridgeline shingles during a recent storm. Called a few roofing repair outfits. Albana, in the midst of coronovirus and with a limited crew, made it the next day for the quote AND repair. They really went above and beyond and it was a huge relief to get the job done. However, even if they WEREN'T able to make it the next day, Sonny and Al were fantastic and we'd still recommend them. Professional, quality work. A family business. Will definitely call them again for any roofing needs."

"I decided to go with Millstream because of the reviews on Angi and other websites. As contracted, Millstream replaced my roof in a day and installed a ridge vent. Supervision of work and post installation inspection was poor that I had to request a replacement inspector. I had to inform them of missed gable vent closure; loose shingle, wavy ridge vent line. Most importantly, I had to research; and inform them that a Ridge vent needs multiple soffit openings and I had only 1. They agreed it was a miss and said they would fix the issue so I could “BREATHE PROPERLY” in my house. And they charged me additional $850. Nonetheless I am currently enjoying my new roof!"

"It turned out that the window to be replaced was difficult for the manufacturer to identify because the manufacturer had changed the design that year. David was in frequent contact with us as he ensured that the manufacturer provided the correct replacement. When the window did arrive, David promptly scheduled an appointment with us for the installation/repairs. David and his coworker were on time and very efficient. Because cold weather had set in, he pre-painted the new window the day prior to the appointment. David placed drop cloths everywhere he worked in our house and his coworker cleaned extraneous dirt after they were finished. The work performed was excellent and we would definitely hire David for any other work."

"K Perkins Contracting has been great to work with. They just re roofed out home that had an only 7 year old roof on it as the previous contractor was a hack and we have had leaks that they didn't fix. Kristin has been great to work with, great communication and when it was evident what a hack job the previous roofers had done, sent me videos and was easily able to pivot and do more than had been anticipated. Came to me highly recommended and I will highly recommend to anyone!"

"I had noticed some shingles on the ground as a result of a recent storm. I made a small pile of them and arranged to have them come to my home for repairs. It turned out the roof was in really bad shape. It was a cheapo roof and was about 15 years old and had storm damage. I agreed that it was going to be the best option. He took photos and provided me with everything I needed to file a claim with my insurance adjuster. I paid nearly nothing out of pocket and now have a much better shingle, better underlayment, and it's been two years since the installation and I haven't had a single issue whatsoever. I would highly recommend them for any roof repairs or replacements. <br />"

"Wes and Aimee were great. Always responded to questions/concerns promptly. Completed the job on time and on budget. Wes and his crew worked around a plumber and some work I was doing in the kitchen without problem or complaint. Most expensive of quotes I received, but Wes was willing to come down on price a bit, and glad we went with him. Very satisfied with the final result. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Old Mystic, CT

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.
