"I needed my garage roof replaced and Lennie with Prestige Roofing was prompt, professional, and honest. After signing a contract with him he started work within a few days and had the project completed in 1 day. I was not able to be at the property the day he and his crew were there, but Lennie sent me photos of the progress throughout the day. I would absolutely hire him again for any future projects"

"Preface to this review - I am a MA licensed Construction Supervisor, and I am a Project Superintendent for large commercial projects for a Boston-area general contractor, so I speak from considerable experience with roofing contractors. In mid January 2020, I signed a deal for a solar power system, contingent upon replacement of my old roof. The solar company recommended Greater Boston Roofing, a company they had frequently worked with. I agreed, and they completed the job on January 29th. The company did a fantastic job. The crew was courteous, professional, and efficient. They treated my property with care, and performed the entire job in one day; almost exactly eight hours. The comprehensive project included the following: 1. Stripping all existing roofing 2. Removing two roof-mounted bathroom exhaust vents, re-routing the associated flex duct to soffit vents (to make that space available for a solar panel), and eliminating the holes by replacing that sheet of plywood - not just little patches 3. New ice & water shield 4. New air, vapor, and water barrier 5. New drip edge 6. New pipe boots on my plumbing and furnace vents 7. New chimney flashing 8. New ridge vent 9. New architectural shingles 10. Removal of all trash; the dumpster was gone by 7:30 the next morning When the crew arrived, the foreman discussed the job with me. I made him aware of a couple of details that I expected - one that was promised to me, and one that hadn’t been previously discussed. He took care of both of them without dispute and without asking for a change order. Safety - the crew followed proper safety protocol, including: 1. Installing temporary tie-off anchors at the ridge, and clipping on with ropes, rope grabs, lanyards, and harnesses. 2. Using a motorized ladder-climbing device to hoist the materials to the roof, eliminating the potential hazard of climbing the ladder while carrying a heavy load. 3. Wearing a Tyvek-type suit and full-face respirator while working around the multiple layers of insulation in the attic to re-route the bath exhaust ducts. Clean-up: 1. A dumpster was delivered shortly before the work started, and was placed exactly where I had previously instructed GBR to place it, with wood placed under the wheels to prevent damage to my driveway. 2. The crew set up large tarps to protect the house and my landscaping, and to facilitate easy clean-up. 3. When I arrived home at the end of the day, my yard was at least as clean as when they started. 4. The dumpster was removed early the next morning. I received an e-mail saying they were done, along with a link to a series of progress photos. This crew did everything the right way. The job has been done for over two weeks now, and the roof has performed perfectly in the rain. I highly recommend Greater Boston Roofing."

"Angel and his 8-person crew from Apex Roofing completed re-roofing my 4BR colonial in one day! My roof needed a lot of TLC and Apex provided it: fascia board and plywood replacement where needed, new ridge vents, skylights, and more. They even shingled my cat house at no additional charge! Professional, prompt, great communicators, excellent clean-up, fair price. Very highly recommended!"

"Sorry, this will take awhile to read. I am not a happy customer. I guess the job was subcontracted to Melani Construction, Inc. The job started a day late (after I took the day off from work) because the van assigned to my job "broke down". The materials were delivered on the day the job was supposed to start, 11/10/2020, which, to me, should have been delivered the day before the job is to start. I was told by Chris that it is a two day job. It turned into a week with a couple days of rain and having to clean up the mess afterwards. I had the top roof shingled and had an "L" shape lower rubber roof replaced. This will take too long to write out so I will just make a list of what the roofers messed up on. 1. They were a day late. 2. Top roof seemed to go ok at first, they put up a screen to cover the side of the house and to catch debris. Before long, the screen came down, shoveled the old roofing material onto my driveway, plants, and bushes, aluminum flashing and plastic wrap from the shingle packages wrapped around my electrical wires coming into my house. 3. ALL my gutters has (had) metal leaf guards, there were none after they cleaned up their mess, they threw them out, too. I told Chris this and he said that only one side had the gutter guards. I said every gutter had them. He looked at me like I was lying, but said he would replace them and to give him a week or two. 4. This was a two day job that turned into a week plus. 5. When shoveling off the debris, some material hit the siding and scuffed it. 6. On the rubber roof, I saw that something was underneath. Chris took a look and said it was a pebble and he was able to push it down and into the Styrofoam, that it wasn't a nail or screw. The roofers should not have left it like that. 7. The roofers should have put rags into the downspouts of the gutters, instead, they used a leaf blower to clean off the roof after sweeping the bulk off the side, and clogged at least three spouts, one of which goes down directly into a pipe in the ground then runs under the back yard to drain. 8. Some damage to plants/bushes and will take the next couple springs to clean everything out that the roofers blew into my gardens. 9. The roofers threw the empty cans of soda onto the ground instead of leaving them on the pic nic table making it look more sloppier than it already did. I have many more pics to share if anyone needs them please email me at tracydwb@aol.com I do customer service at one of my jobs. My boss would be appalled if I left my station sloppy like this company did and treated my customers the way I was treated here. How embarrassing. This company has been paid in full. Let's see if I have any leaks and how long it takes to get ALL the gutter guards replaced."

"Fredy and Andrea at Global Roofing combine to provide excellent customer service with high quality installation. From quote to complete the entire process was smooth. We were looking at metal roofing first and learned quickly that these folks know a lot about the options, potential issues and installation. Ultimately we went with CertainTeed asphalt shingles due to supply chain price increases for metal, a limited color selection, and because I tend to walk on my roof for a few reasons. On the 1st scheduled day the crew arrived on time and ready to work. They hung tarps and netting to collect all debris and protect shrubs , etc. They moved fast and efficiently with a big enough crew to clear old shingles and start installing new by mid-afternoon. At the end of the day they cleaned everything up, and I do mean everything. By end of day two they were done, once again cleaning everything before leaving. We were very impressed with Global and definitely recommend them for your roofing project."

"My roof was 28 yrs old and saw Evangelous Roofing doing my neighbors roof, working from home I saw their progress and was impressed with the job they did so I reached out to Ted and he came over, quoted the job and the rest is history. Ted was a pleasure to work with, he stood behind his quote, no surprises when job was completed, he explained everything ahead of time as to what to expect. Wallace and his crew did a great job, keeping me informed on progress and any issues if they arose. They replaced any damaged sheathing as they removed the old shingles. The few things I had asked him to do he took pics to show me that it had been completed. It was quality workmanship and quality product. They did a great job being careful not to damage lawn and shrubs and they cleaned up after job was complete. you wouldn't even have known they were here after completion. I would definitely hire them again and recommend them for anyone looking for any roofing needs. Great job Ted and once again thank you!"

"What I thought was going to be a painful process turned into a pleasant experience. Mr. Flynn was very timely in giving me a quote, supplying information about the materials, paperwork such as insurance certificate , and not subbing out the job. Mr. Flynn's crew was here at 7:50 AM. Stopped for lunch at 11:30 returned to work promptly at 12:30 and was finished with the job by 3. They were all very professional and courteous. The clean up was impeccable. Mr. Flynn and his crew know how to run a business. Kudos to Robyn too for all her help. Great Company!"

"The job went as expected - High Quality in every aspect. Quoting was done by Dan and was prompt, informative and competitive. Dan was outstanding to work with. He is knowledgeable of the products and materials to be used. Dan was extremely responsive in all aspects - from detailed quoting to scheduling and delivery of services to communications and accessibility. The roofing materials was delivered the day before the job and the dumpster was dropped off that morning before work started. The roofers showed up on time and immediately started working. They are an extremely hard-working team; everyone knows what their part of the process and just does it. It was obvious that the installers are seasoned professionals, paying attention to details. It was clear that they take pride in their work. The job was done is a day which means that the driveway and yard was picked up and returned in the state that it was found in. Dan was there to check in and answer any questions during the install. Overall, extremely pleased with the process and results. Thank you, Dan and the whole H&R Team. The roof looks great and I know it will be in place for many, many years to come."

"Recently bought a house on which EAW Roofing had done the roof 3 years ago. The roof had a leak and since the previous owner gave me the invoice, I decided to call them for the warranty. They went to take a look and blamed the chimney flue and after getting the chimney inspected and getting the report stating that it was the roof. EAW said that there was no warranty and they needed to charge if they were to inspect it and charge for any repairs needed. Just to get them to visit took months. I decided to check the roof myself and it’s the worst roof job that I had ever seen. They do not stand by their work. I would give them zero stars if possible. I would advise to use someone else as it’s ridiculous to have a roof that’s a few years old that’s leaking and in bad workmanship"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Spencer, MA

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.
