"After meeting project managers and obtaining estimates from several roofing companies, we decided to have Buccos complete our roof replacement. From the first meeting to the final shingle laid we were extremely satisfied. The entire team was professional, efficient, safe and attentive to our needs. Pricing was fair and reasonable. The job was complete in 2 days and cleanup was impeccable. I highly recommend Buccos to anyone needing roof replacement or repair."

"Beware, get an inspection before paying. I'm a busy contractor that needed to a roof and siding on one of our rentals so I called Whalen. I stopped by the first day of the job and noticed no one spoke English and some shortcuts taken on the back porch roof. I spoke with Mike and he said it would be fixed. A few days later Whalen called me and said the job is finished and they emailed us the bill. I decided I better get my ladder and inspect their work just to be sure. I found tears and holes in the new shingles, flashing not installed correctly and damaged drip edges. They came back and fixed those issues and emailed us the bill again. I knew the roof had a significant amount of rotted wood so before we sent a check I asked them if the rotted wood was replaced and they said yes. I decided I should go into the attic to make sure it was replaced and it was not. They also installed the ridge vent without cutting the actual vent therefore shortening the life of the new roof due to excessive attic heat. When I spoke with Shawn Whalen he apologized and said that they subcontracted this job to some guys they had never used before and Whalen didnt bother inspecting there work. Those guys came back a total of five times and ripped up part of the new roof and fixed everything. I had a total of 5 hours of my own time inspecting and getting them to complete the job properly."

"The work mostly went smoothly. The solar panels are fantastic and I'd recommend them to anyone who has an unshaded, south-facing unshaded roof. However, there were two issues. 1. A worker tossed a cigarette butt off the roof. It landed on the neighbor's patio furniture, burning it. Scalo paid for a replacement, but they shouldn't have been smoking on our property in the first place without asking, and they certainly shouldn't have been careless with disposal of their waste. 2. Part of the job involved repainting a small, metal portion of the roof. The first time they did the job, the new paint peeled immediately. They came back at our request, scraped off the old paint, and repainted it. This looked okay for about 2.5 years, after which point it started peeling again. 3. Also after about 2.5 years, a shingle fell off. I called and asked for them to replace the shingle and repaint the metal roof under the warranty. They agreed. Unfortunately, they did a poor job; they didn't remove the old paint, so the roof looks very bumpy. Worse, they sent me a bill for the painting! They claim it was not covered under the warranty. Reading the warranty, I can see how this is a reasonable interpretation of the text, but they should have told me it would not be covered and given me an estimate before proceeding. Because the conversation was about a warranty repair, I expected it to be covered under the warranty."

"I have already provided a very detailed review last year. We are still very pleased with the work that Brien and B&M has done. After they were finished, they have responded quickly to our requests to fix a few minor issues that developed over the year since the job was completed. The company wants to be sure you are pleased with everything! We also hired them again to do some drywall repair that was needed after a different contractor needed to remove some drywall from our ceiling to get into the central vacuum pipes."

"it went very well once it was started, it took a while to get it going due to weather and other issues. The crew were very professional and honest with me about the work. After getting started with the work they found additional issues that needed to be taken care of before they could continue. It cost me a little more money that I was hoping I didn't have to pay, however it was worked out with the office and the job was completed within 3 days and I love my deck and can't wait to use it when the weather permits me too. I previously had work done on my roof and the contractor they sent was also professional, nice and honest with me about the work he was doing. I have had no problems with the roof."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Scottdale, PA

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.
