"Heritage Roofing and Construction is so much more than a roofing company. They were called when we noticed some water damage in the house. Once we identified all the issues with the roof, his team started work on our timeline. They replaced the entire roof, repaired the inside damage on the wall and ceiling, and repaired additional damage on the shed, garage door, side door. In addition, after they were complete they cleaned up everything. They did such a good job we didn’t need to clean a thing. In every aspect of the job, they performed superbly."

"I thought they did a good job but when I had some follow up work done I was told that they did not do the flat roof correctly. However, I have had no problems with it and that was over a year ago and we have had torrential rains.They cleaned the area thoroughly and you could not find an old tile or a nail in the yard. <br />"

"<p>The door we chose was notoriously hard to install per reviews of the product but it had the options we wanted.  The installer had never seen this one but was very professional in dealing with the challenges this door presented.  </p> Pricing was spot on and everything was completed as promised. <br />"

"I could write a long explanation on Ron's quality of service but I am always sceptical of reviews. With Ron and his crew it is all top quality. The price is right and the work is exceptional. He says what he will do and he does exactly what he says. I would recommend Ron and his crew to everyone that's in need of a new roof."

"I called American Roofing because of a small wet stain we noticed in a <br /> bedroom.  Someone came out right away and after inspecting the roof and <br /> attic, he determined the roof was fine but a small amount of water was <br /> coming in around a pipe.  All it needed was some sealer around the <br /> pipe.  Since that company also does gutters I got him to look at and <br /> give me a price for new gutters and guards around the roof line over the <br /> patio.  They did the work on the gutters within a couple of days but <br /> had to order the gutter guard.  They came back in one week and finished <br /> up putting the guards up and sealing the corner and down spout joints.  <br /> They were very professional and nice to work with.  The gutters work <br /> well, match the house and look very nice. <br />"

"The work crew arrived on time, and, over approximately 3 days, removed the old roof, replaced damaged decking, replaced flashing, and put down deck felt, and repaired a damaged soffit.  The new roofing was the style and color I requested.  What I was equally impressed with was the clean up! <br />"

"<p>Very professional and punctual. Fast response from my initial inquiry. Provided a very well written detail estimate that was well within the price I was hoping to pay. Kept me up to date on the scheduling of the work. They were responsive to some changes I asked for and actually did the work while we were out of town.</p> <p>Came home to a very nicely done new roof and no sign that they had ever been there. No mess to clean up, no leftover trash, nothing. We are very pleased with their service and would recommend them to a friend without reservation.</p> <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Selma, AL

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.
