"It was a pleasure working with G and K Roofing. G and K's owner provided detailed explanations before the work and carefully monitored the work progression. The crew was very conscientious and friendly. Replacing a roof is not something one does very often and can be daunting but the G and K's owner was supportive and made the process go smoothly, addressing any hiccups or concerns as the work progressed. The scheduling was perfect for my needs and all work was completed on time. The new roof looks great!"

"So honest! Could have charged us for a whole new roof, but determined patching was sufficient. Got job done in less time than estimated. Small mix-up with invoice was immediately solved."

"I had an exceptional experience using Rich from Cellar to Attic. They added insulation to help fix some ice dams and also repaired about a dozen little quirks in my attic that were in need of attention. Above all, Rich was a great communicator. He was prompt to return calls, showed up on time, explained the job in very understandable terms, offered to fix only what I wanted done, offered a fair-market price, and finished in just two days. I've had several contractors over the years, and Rich was one of the best."

"Great overall experience from the quote through installation. I received 5+ quotes for this project and Mike was the only one to go on the roof, take measurements, calculate my venting and give me a real honest assessment. I was very impressed. The removal and installation also all occurred in 1 day and they used a dump trailer instead of a dumpster which was really great to not have to deal with. Overall I think they did a remarkable job and I personally inspected some of the finer details of flashing and edges and gutter eyebrows and it was done perfectly. Would definitely recommend and would hire them to do it again."

"A few years ago, I had used SPS Roofing on a commercial job, and was happy with the finished job. Recently, I called them for my own house which required replacement of shingles. It was a smooth transaction. I selected from a sample of shingles. The crew arrived within two weeks, removed the old shingles, and replaced with new more attractive shingles. The job took two days. They did a complete cleanup leaving no trash or debris. Two sattelite dish antennas had to be repointed, which was professionally done, and at no additional charge. <br />"

"Jerry and his team arrived exactly on time on the day of work (that never happens with contractors!). They immediately went to work started tearing down the old roof. Unfortunately, after exposing the trusses, they realized that they would need to fabricate new ones in order to create a level roof line. Without hesitation, they cut out new pieces and took the time to install them. What amazed me was the level of craftsmanship, care, and detail that they infused into such a small project on a scale relative to their other business. It's obvious that Jerry and his team take pride in their work and do everything in their power to ensure that the customer is completely satisfied with the end product. I was also pleasantly surprised to notice how clean they kept the work site, continually cleaning up as they made progress on the shed roof. In the end, they did a fantastic job of fixing my roof while adding additional structural stability to the shed to make it last that much longer, all for a very reasonable price. I consider myself to be very selective when it comes to contractors, but Jerry made it very easy for me to trust in his work from start to finish. I will be calling him again for my future needs. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Watertown, WI

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.
