"When choosing a contractor there are many considerations. Referrals, price, reviews about the company. The most important to me are, integrity, honesty and a fair price. Peter covered everything with his proposal. I first met Peter approximately 2015 or 2016 to inquire about a roof. He told me based on the age and type of shingles on my house I didn't need a new roof unless it was leaking. Fast forward to 2021, I called DWM for my roof replacement because of Peter's honesty. A new roof is a large expense, I am extremely satisfied with DWM, the quality of the roof and the workmanship of the team that installed my roof. They kept the work area neat, cleaned up afterwards and did an amazing job of picking up all nails so my puppies were safe. The communication from Jill at the office was perfect. I recommend that anyone who needs a roof to call DWM Roofing. They will not disappoint you!"

"Fichtner Services did an outstanding job installing a standing seam metal roof to a front portico that has both curved metal panels and hipped sections. Due to the shape and some intricate details, other companies said they could only do it using copper material, but Fichtner Services offered that they could do it in either steel, aluminum, or copper. We chose 24ga coated steel material, and Fichtner prepared template and ordered custom barrel section panels. When the installation crew first arrived, the project manager and crew leader explained how the work would proceed, answered questions clearly, and easily adjusted to a slight change requested to the front edge form of the roof. The crew demonstrated they were very talented in cutting and folding the metal sections and installing the system with 1” standing seams. The workmanship was excellent and we were very happy with the result. All communication with Fichtner Services was very professional, and responses to questions very prompt. We would definitely hire them again."

"Very well despite supplier delays and backorders. Mr. Tomas installed temporary counters so I could have a working kitchen understanding my desire to wait for original design, which then stayed in endless backorder. Al;though I had to finally move forward the final result is beautiful and I could not be happier. His craftsmanship on cherry handmade floating shelves, brackets, and banquette bench is excellent. I recommend this firm highly."

"I am 150% satisfied with the work ARHT Home Solutions did on my home. I would refer Mike and his company to everyone who needs roofing or home improvements done on their home. Mike was very thorough in explaining and comparing the roof repairs replacement when he comes. He made sure I understood everything they were going to do on my roof. On the day his company came, his crew first made sure to put tarps down for debris and not to do any harm to home. They were very efficient and well trained in the job they were doing and Mike kept me informed with texts and pictures with each step they did to my roof. I am glad I went with Mike and AHRT Home Solutions and have already told many people about him and his company and hope they use ARHT Home Solutions also. It was the best decision I ever made about doing replacing my roof and will use this company for any other repairs to my home."

"A roof leak was discovered in August, made several calls to roofers only to be told they either were only doing repairs for existing customers or not at all, finally found Welsh through friends. Welsh came out the next day to assess the leak and recommended a stop gap repair until the roof could be replaced. The repair was done quickly. There were no signs of it leaking after the repair. The roof was replaced by Welsh as soon as they had an opening 2 months later. We got several other estimates that were much higher for the exact same shingles and scheduling further out. The work was all done in one day, we had a Certainteed shingle system installed. It looks good and we no longer hear the rain on the roof and there are no signs of leaking. Not being roof experts, we can't know for sure about the quality but there are lots of warranties from both Welsh and Certainteed. Overall, it was a good experience. The company is very busy and having some office support would help with communication."

"A roofer arrived at my place around 1pm (same day as my phone call). He examined the drywall and examined the roof. He quickly determined that what I was seeing was actually yellowed tape where pieces of drywall had been joined together showing through the less than adequate paint job. I'm sure he was right. The stain was a perfectly straight line and my original home renovator did a sloppy job. I was embarrassed that I had called him out, but he was very polite about it. Horizon Roofing is awesome, and I would recommend them to anyone!"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Severn, 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.
