"Van Derhoof did a great job replacing our roof. Very professional and safe crew. A couple of siding shingles were damaged during installation that they replaced at no cost and some flashing leaked during a rainstorm that was quickly repaired at no cost. Great service!"

"Very impressed with responsiveness, professionalism, technology, and value provided by Gunner Roofing. The copper flashing was pulling away from around my chimney and looked like it was in need of repair or replacement. I had previously worked with another well reviewed roofing company on Angie's List that missed my scheduled appointment to examine my chimney flashing. So I was very pleased when Andrew from Gunner showed up exactly when promised, and I was quite fascinated with his use of a drone to take precise aerial photographs of the work to be performed from all angles - a rather tech savvy approach. Gunner provided a detailed estimate within hours, that was only 1/3 the cost of the estimate I ultimately received from that other roofer. Gunner Roofing completed the work on time, and did a very satisfactory job. This was a relatively modest project, but based on my experience, I hope to use Gunner Roofing when it comes time to redo my entire roof."

"Brian, Bryan and Matt were our crew and were excellent. They were efficient, friendly and kind to me and my kids who liked to watch them work. The windows they completed look perfect. There was one window that they had to reschedule due to the space being very un-level. They ordered a brand new window and scheduled a new date to complete the job for the last window. They called as they were finishing up to explain everything. I also appreciated that I didn't have to be present for them to complete the job so that I was able to go to work."

"These are the nicest people to work with! We had recently moved into our home and the roof started leaking damaging two interior walls. J Lindsley Roofing sent their sales manager the next day, gave us the best estimate and sent the nicest crew of men who promptly repaired it. Would highly recommend this company!"

"The crew was punctual, fast, cordial, professional, and kept me updated when questions arose. They removed my old roof, removed two skylights, lowered my old unused chimney below the roof surface, and installed additional plywood to reinforce my roof to support solar panels, all in ONE day. Arrived between 7-730 am and they were done, cleaned up, and were out of here by 5 pm. Very impressed and satisfied with the work they performed. Would do business again and recommend them to friends."

"I knew my garage roof needed cleaning but I never thought I had moss growing on my house roof. The sun (finally) came out one day while I was looking at my roof. The light hit the roof just at the right spot for me to see that every shingle needed cleaning. I was shocked as I could not see the moss before. Paul did a great job. I plan to ask for him when I need the gutters and house cleaned."

"I was extremely happy with the work. they were polite, efficient, cleaned up everyday when finished, listened to my every request and handled the job with professionalism. Tom, the owner, was there everyday checking it out and doing whatever was required to make my porch what I wanted it to be. there are pictures below but only wish I could have uploaded all of the before and after pictures. The amount was a little higher than originally quoted only because I added on as we went along."

"Eric was extremely responsive. When we did the initial walk through, he was able to guide me with sensible suggestions that fit my needs and budget. He managed a project for the remodel of my 1930's home. In spite of me living out of state, he kept me informed through the entire process with pictures and updates. In addition, he was proactive when issues came up. He finished on time and within the budget. I would highly recommend him and his crew for any type of remodel small and large."

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Central Square, NY

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.
