"We were very pleased. They arrived the day after the storm damage to put up the tarp. The work to replace the roof was excellent. They replaced sagging plywood, installed J channel that should have been there, but was not, and did the flashing around the chimney. They covered the landscaping and used magnets to pick up nails. A representative of the company checked the work the day after completion"

"Quality work for a GREAT PRICE!! Had roof on my 2 story home replaced for just under 10K. Dave K. was our field representative (sales guy). He's a straight forward person and great to work with. After roof was done I had it inspected for peace of mind (since I'm not a roofer) by tom at alert inspection in hudsonville, MI. Tom is an experienced roofer 20+ yrs. He told me he could tell they didn't skimp on materials and after telling him what we paid to have our roof done, he said he would of thought we paid more."

"The work was done promptly. The site was cleaned up when finished. No surprises on the cost. Will the repair hold up over the long Michigan winter? I think so. I will have to up date next year. <br />"

"Excellent service. We had some materials, shingles and wood, that kept the price down. Arrived right on time and worked quickly and efficiently. Absolutely no mess left from their work. <br /> Our roof will need to be replaced within the next couple of years, it is 20 years old, and Scott gave us a very reasonable estimate for the future work. <br /> Will definitely be hiring this company for the new roof. <br />"

"Jacob and his team were responsive, courteous, reliable and friendly from the time I contacted him to the completion of the job. He took the time to understand all the things that needed to be repaired on my roof and explained how he would get them all accomplished. They did a great work in removing the old shingles, repairing boards, installing a ridge vent, putting down felt, flashing and waterproofing, putting on the new shingles, then cleaning up after themselves. I would heartily recommend Ridgeview Roofing and Construction for any roofing or construction work you need done."

"Like a lot of homeowners in west Michigan, the roof of my house sustained damage from a hail storm back in the spring. Thankfully I found Great Lakes Building Concepts on Angie's List. My experience with the company started with them helping me with my insurance company after they had already denied a claim; Aaron clearly found evidence of hail damage, and things were worked out. Great Lakes ended up replacing my roof, my metal carport roof, and my gutters. In all three cases, the work was done quickly, professionally, and the results are amazing. The gutters look much better and were installed in a better fashion than the old ones, and the roof and the venting for the roof is a huge improvement over the vent cap system on my old roof. Great Lakes uses quality materials, and is responsive to phone calls. The carport roof replacement was reasonably priced. I cannot recommend them highly enough, and they will be the first company I contact for future house projects like siding."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Portage, MI

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.
