"This was a small repair job, not a new installation. Several other companies weren't interested or never called back. American Eagle replied promptly and sent an estimator out within a week. The work was completed on schedule for a reasonable price. Great job, thanks American Eagle!"

"It was Christmas Eve when I discovered water dripping onto the garage floor beneath the furnace flue pipe during a rainstorm.  The next business day, I called Tom Goldston Roofing and left a message that I needed a repair.  Tom returned my phone call the following day, which was a Saturday.  He told me over the phone that a little bit of caulk would likely solve the problem.  He said he would probably not be able to get there on Monday, but would be there on Tuesday for sure.  As it turned out, snow was predicted for Tuesday.  Late Monday afternoon, I received a call from Tom.  He said he would be over to take care of the repair.  I was very pleased that he came before the snow arrived.  He caulked around the pipe and also did a quick inspection to see if anything else on the roof needed to be sealed.  He charged me only $20.  A real bargain, in my opinion.  Great service.  Will call him again when I need a repair on the roof. <br />"

"The price seemed rather high considering the bid was to replace a metal roof panel which didn't happen. He capped and sealed the chimney vent instead. As it is difficult to find and service people that are willing to do work in Mt Charleston, I am satisfied overall. <br />"

"The job was scheduled, but weather required a re-schedule for later the same week. Doug was very prompt to contact me, and always returned my calls the same day. The only other problem (resulting from previous roofing job) was expertly handled by Doug's crew. The previous roofing job (probably 20 years ago) had not installed a drip edge, but Doug requires this item (and we wanted it installed) which required a bit more work and a small extra material charge (not unexpected). The job was completed in one day (it was an uncomplicated, small roof). The job site was cleaned and my landscaping was completely undamaged. We are completely satisfied, and have a new 30 year roof. I gave a B grade for price because AAA is not the lowest bidder, but the somewhat higher cost is offset by the higher that usual quality. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in South Lake Tahoe, CA

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.
