"Oh my goodness! There are truly no words to convey how happy we are with our new shingles. Rob came out and met with us after we got estimates from three other companies. His knowledge, professionalism, and personality immediately helped us make up our minds to hire Politz Enterprises to replace our shingles on our home and detached garage. Rob was very attentive to helping us meet our timeline and explained the materials he would use and also explained their outstanding warranty. The crew he sent did an outstanding job at removing the old shingles, applying the new under-layment, installing the new drip edge, and finally applying the shingles. Despite how chilly it was in November, the men worked efficiently and did an outstanding job. They also did an excellent job at cleaning up once the job was complete. Rob came by once the job was complete to make sure we were completely satisfied. In our opinion, we are blessed to have the best roofing contractor in Maryland replace our roof. Thank you Rob and the entire crew who made our home look great again with the new roof you installed! Mike & Kathy D. - Middletown"

"My install was completed flawlessly and I couldn't be happier! Both my siding and windows were installed by Jose's crew and done very professionally. I will hire Advance in a heartbeat for other work that I may need done in the future."

"This company was the first to call me at 7:40am during a tropical storm and was able to squeeze me in that morning. Anthony came out and was lovely, he did the work professionally and was easy to talk to. He explained the company's care package and a few minor issues on my roof that I should have replaced. In addition, he found that the leaking on my roof was not indeed, a roof problem, but a plumbing problem from one of the vents coming out of the bathroom. I will work with them again and will sign up to their package deal which would protect us for 1 year after service and minor fixes to flashing and such."

"I purchased the service on May 18, 2015 and received an email from company to contact them.  I called and the company was not ready to set the appt and I was told someone would be in contact soon.  About 3 days later, I  was contacted to schedule an appt.  The appt was scheduled for May 28, 2015 at 2:00pm.  I had an appt the same morning and left home at 9:00am.  I forgot something and returned home about 10 minutes later and the company truck was at my home and the employee(s) was on the roof.  I went to my appt and returned home to a door tag.  I called the company and was told I would receive a report by email within a week.  I asked if I would receive pictures of my roof and the work performed, along with an estimate for repair costs.  I was told I would receive it all in the email.  I received the roof inspection report on Monday, June 1, 2015 at 8:51pm.  The email was only a letter explaining the "repairs" performed - no pictures or repair cost estimate.  I replied to the email and asked for the pictures.  The company rep acknowledged the email and stated pictures would be sent.  As of today, June 8, 2015, I have not received the pictures or the estimate.  As a matter of fact, I have not heard from any company representative.  As a result, I cannot confirm if anything was done because I cannot get to the roof to view the repairs nor would I know where to look.  I would never recommend this company, not even to my enemy!"

"Gutter Guys installed my gutters several years ago. Since then, I have paid them to come back and clean them every fall. They were here today and, under the supervision of Josh, did another great job. They cleaned the gutters, got branches off the roof, tightened some loose gutter screws, and left the place completely cleaned up. Thanks for another year of good work, guys!"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Rising Sun, MD

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.
