"I can't say enough about how great these guys were. When we were in a really bad post-hurricane spot, they called back, came out promptly, and fit me and my wife into their busy schedule. Our house was a mess and needed lots of help and Thomas Trades was there for us in a major way. Would work with again and highly recommend. We don't know what we would have done without these guys. Forever grateful."

"APPLAUSE and ACCOLADES for the SPECTACULAR job TREE WORK NOW performed on my property! Sebastian THOROUGHLY coordinated the job after I submitted pics of my requests. The quote and payment remained the same (no hidden fees) and TOTALLY fair! Overall, there is a HUGE difference between tree trimmers and Arborists, who create art! Ensuring trees are "balanced" and customers are completely satisfied are their main priorities! The team arrived early, were respectful of property and diligent in team safety, coordination of projects, etc. They EXCEEDED my expectations for shaping the queen palms, removal of small trees (that were hit hard after storms/cold weather), and thinning out neighbor's tree over my property with caution and respect of their property! I have already mentioned to friends, neighbors and coworkers that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this AMAZING TEAM for their TALENT! TRULY GRATEFUL for such a PHENOMENAL job!!!"

"March 2021: It was excellent working with Mr. Christmas. He exceeded my expectations. I will never call another contractor as long as Mr. Christmas is still working. His workmanship, attention to detail and his communication skills are above and beyond what I have been use to when dealing with other people that have done work for me in the past. Call Mr. Christmas you will not be disappointed! Thank you Mr. Christmas for making my experience so positive."

"One of the great things about using Cape Fear Solar Systems is that they handle all of the paperwork -- the architectural review, county inspections, and Duke Energy to get the new meter installed. They answered all of our questions and gave us peace of mind that we were working with the right professionals. They completed the installation on the roof quickly and did a good job of cleaning up. We definitely recommend them."

"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

"Owner Ricky Stroup was infinitely patient with us, as after our initial meeting it took us over a year to hire his company to do this work. During that year, we had multiple conversations with him regarding the scope of our project, and he was as willing to contract the scope as to expand it. He wrote several proposals for us, so we could see the financial impacts of our different scope options. Our indecision on scope, and delay in scheduling, never caused any frustration or ill will on his part. Mr. Stroup was helpful, friendly, and patient throughout! His team installed everything in one day, and all who worked on our project were extremely courteous and professional. We have been very impressed with the quality of the work. Working with Gutter Glove of North Carolina was an enjoyable experience, and I recommend this company!"

"Michael and his crew were the original roofers for our house... and turns out our ENTIRE neighborhood! We personally have never had any issues with our house such as leaks or strong wind damage, even amidst the powerful storms we've been getting the past few years. He left us with quite the exceptional roof and I know I can rely on him IF our roof were to attain any damage. He will be the first person I go to when the life of the roof eventually dwindles. (In 25 years lol!) "

Stop searching and hire Harts, as you will be more than satisfied with the results of your project."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Wilmington, NC

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.
