"Jansen roofing did an excellent job.  They were very professional from the initial estimate until the job was completed.  They worked with us to accommodate our schedule and checked in daily to ensure everything was going to plan.  I highly recommend them!! <br />"

"They did a good job. They came out pretty much when they say they would and they did get it done. I found them from Angie's List and they have a lot of good reviews but the thing that I didn't like was he said that it would only take like a day or two and it sounds like he didn't communicate well. The first time I called they didn't call me back and I tried to contacted them through the e-mail from Angie's List and the owner that comes checked that out really quick. So he came, he check and saw that I e-mailed and I talked to one of his workers between that. He got right back to me as soon as he got involved. He got the estimate and we talked about the job. They came out here and they ended up working week and what it sounds like was however he delegated the job, he didn't delegate enough people for the job that needed to get done. It rained when they are in the middle of working and they covered my porch roof but it leaked a little bit. It didn't turn out that anything was really injured, they really felt sorry about that and offered to do anything that I needed to to make it right. I got my job done and got it done well but there were definitely some glitches. They cleaned up nicely. The employees were nice and the employee that was on site felt terrible, he felt that it was taking so long for it to go through, he felt that he must calculated and I guess what happened was he had ordered the roofing for the porch and it was suppose to be delivered but our delivery time was off. He felt like it can get it done before the rain comes but then because it wasn't delivered on time he was not able to do that and got into trouble. Then the owner came out to find out what was going on, he's going 'Oh my God, we really didn't put enough people on this job which the guy actually out here didn't say all along', but generally they were professional group and they know what they were doing."

"Steve and his employees did an excellent job of repairing my roof.   <br /> Before I awarded the job to River City Roofing, Steve explained exactly what he was going to do and when he thought he could do it.  He is professional and courteous and did everything he said he was going to do, plus a few extra things to make sure other areas of the roof were not compromised. <br /> One thing really stood out when dealing with this company.  Steve communicates very well and if he said he was going to call me, he would call me.  Contractors have a reputation of being very difficult to get ahold of and keep you informed.  Steve did a very good job of this and always let me know if there was a problem or an issue.  He started the job exactly as he said he would. <br /> I am very happy with the work he performed and I would encourage anyone who is considering hiring him to do so. <br />"

"We had tornado wind damage in Nov, on our roof and on some siding. They came out and gave us an estimate  which was at least 1,000 less than another company. Since the weather was bad, they came out as soon as they could, and had most of it done in 1 day. We would definitely use them again."

"Great experience. Doug and Tammy are very professional while still having that next door neighbor feel. Refuse container was set in afternoon, next day, bright and early, roof was stripped, sheets replaced, new felt, new shingles applied! Area was cleaned up and dumpster was picked up the next day."

"This is the second time we've used Mainsteam Home Improvement to replace original windows in our house. Several years ago, they replaced half of our windows. This year, when we decided to replace the remaining 5 windows, they were our first call. The windows work effortlessly and look great! They were professionally installed and the staff was great to work with on this project."

"Suburban was very busy, so once the windows came in they had to push back the install date a couple of days.  That was no big deal as I understand how construction works.  One window came in and the manufacture had built in incorrectly, so the installer had to put the old window back in and re-order the window.  All the windows are in, they look and work great!  Suburban stayed in constant contact about the delays and the re-ordering of the wrong sized window.  The installer Mike went above and beyond to make sure the windows were put in correctly and looked good from both the inside and the outside.  I definitely would use Suburban again.  The gutter replacement was fast, and done very well as well.  I could not be happier with these projects.  Thanks Mike, Bob, and Darrin. <br />"

"Aaron and his guys came in and removed the old roof shingels that were VERY bad, and had a new roof done, finished and cleaned up by the next afternoon. Everything was cleaned up and the new roof really makes my home look better. They took the time to secure the roof with tarps the night they tore off the old shingels, just in case it rained. Aaron called the next day to make sure I didn't have any additonal questions. I am usually pretty handy, but this would have been a big enough project that I needed a professional. That is why I called Aaron. It was done and finished in onlytwo days and the cost couldn't be beat. <br /> His window team had done some work for me in the past when I first bought my house. The windows that were installed did not have any aluminum wrapping around them, so they looked bad and would have required painting and maintenance. They guys came in and trimmed out my windows in no time, and now 10 years later they still look great. All I do is clean the outside of the house every spring. No maintenance is such a time saver. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Walcott, IA

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.
