"I have worked with countless contractors over the past ten years and Glen is BY FAR the best business owner I have ever encountered. He truly cares about his customers and goes above and beyond to get the job done right. Not only that, he is great at communicating throughout the duration of the job and was available directly by phone. When I had urgent questions I didn't have to go through a call center and wait two days. He picked up immediately and was quick to offer solutions. On multiple occasions, he drove over to my house to check on a leak (that was chimney related and installed by another company) just because he cared about our well-being. All at no charge to us. If you're looking for an ethical company that does excellent work then look no further than Falcon Roofing."

"I just had the pleasure of hiring Premier Exteriors to replace the roof on my townhouse, and I was extremely impressed with their service and products. Ricardo, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain different product and warranty options which I ended up selecting at a very reasonable price. I also want to commend Samantha and Faiz from his support team who provided me with exceptional customer service and communication throughout the entire process. The roof installation was completed in 1 day, and the installation team was professional, courteous, and meticulously cleaned up all debris from me and my neighbor's property. I could not be more impressed with the Premier Team's enthusiasm and professionalism, and I highly recommend them for any roof installation projects."

"Style Roofing is the best.  They were the most knowledgeable about construction and roofing of any of the 5 companies I sought bids from.  At no time did they try to oversell us as all the other companies did.  The best part about the whole experience was that they had the lowest price. <br /> They did everything they said they were going to do, when the said they would do it.  The crew kept the site clean and was respectful of our home and landscaping. <br /> I will hire Style again, if I should ever need another roof. <br />   <br />"

"A&M Roofing were great. Dave was diligent and patient in his approach to getting our roof and Portico replaced. He responded to multiple callbacks (representation with insurance company, initiated by me) and after about 3 months of waiting, was able to get the roof work done in a couple of weeks. For the portico, the only surprise was that once work began, i was told that railings need to be removed for them to do the work. That was additional cost that i had not anticipated (had to get a handyman to do it) Overall, i would recommend them to anyone getting any roofing related work. Thanks to them again."

"Timothy's Roofing Company did an excellent job of replacing my old roof. Russ (Sales Manager) provided an estimate on the spot and the installation crew was very professional. When done it was "like it never even happened"- no trash, etc. I really like the warranty as I plan on owning the house for many more years. A quality, professional job at a reasonable price. Highly recommend, especially to seniors (or others) who can't climb ladders. It's important to be able to trust your contractor."

"Tom was a great partner for this project. He came out right away, and was consultative in his approach. He walked me through the failures in my current roof, and even did a quick repair to stop the leak that was the reason for my initial call. They had the old roof off and the new roof on within a day, and the new gutters went up the next day. Looks great!!"

"I had a bad leaking after recent rain. The ceiling dropped and the water was everywhere. There were rain for several days in the forecast. I called my roofer friend and left several messages. Searching for top roofer in the Angie's list, I either got text said total roof replacement only, or the soonest appointment would be 2 weeks after. This guy Steve from Roofer 911 replied me within 30 minutes and came the next day at 10:30. He went over the problem area with his detector and let you know which part of ceiling were wet and possible source of the leaking. He did his estimate at my drive way and sent the paperwork through email. After I signed the contract, the workers showed up at 13:00 the same day and finished the work at 16:30. They documented what and how they did the fixing by taking pictures. The whole experience was so smooth and eased my anxiety. I will call Steve for any future roof jobs and will recommend Steve to my friends. I wish he had other talents like plumbing and repair air conditioning."

"At first everything was OK but within a month or so the leak moved to another area not far from the original leak. Aaron came back a second time and applied more sealant. After the next heavy rain, however, there was still a leak. I called again and they sent another guy out to take a look. They came back one more time and sealed a larger area on the roof. That so far has seemed to do the trick as I haven't seen any water for several months now. <br />"

"I knew I had some sort of leak in my roof because the ceiling drywall was starting to bulge in my upstairs bathroom. <br /> I contacted 3 roofing companies through Angie's List. The first two immediately told me how much repairs would cost, per hour. With the first company, I would have to wait about 2 weeks for an appointment. The second company was vague about when they might be able to do the work, and said they would call back. They never did call back. <br /> When I contacted the third company, I spoke to Bill and he said he could come the next morning to look at the situation. No mention about the price at all. I thought, "Now this is the way it should be done. Look at what needs to be done, then provide an estimate." Bill got up on the roof and looked at one of the exhaust seals and said it was definitely cracked and dry rotted and needed to be replaced. He explained what would be done and came the next day and did the work. I didn't need to be there when he did the work. <br /> He did a good job and the price was reasonable. I was relieved to have the problem solved before the cold winter months set in, with snow on the roof. <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Alexandria, VA

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.
