"After 26 years we knew, the time had come to replace our existing roof. At the recommendation of our neighbor, we placed a call to Brian Fallon at Trenton Roofing. At our home visit/evaluation Brian thoroughly explained the roofing process and within a few days submitted an estimate for the work we had discussed. In October of 2020 we signed the contracts and were given an estimated installation date. Brian kept us informed of the material availability and the anticipated date of install. In January of 2021 we received notification that Trenton Roofing had received all materials for our job and the work was scheduled. The day of the install the Trenton Roofing crew arrived promptly and within one day the entire process was complete. The crew was amazing – they were careful, efficient and their workmanship superior. Our yard was meticulously checked and cleared of all debris. We were so impressed with the roof install that we decided to engage Trenton Roofing for window replacement. In March of 2021 Brian Fallon along with Robert the window installer, visited our home to measure all existing windows. Once again within a few days we had an estimate for the new windows and installation. We were told from the start that our order would take between 8-12 weeks and installation would take approximately 3 days. We were delighted when windows arrived at the two-month mark and installation was scheduled. On the day of installation Robert and his team arrived promptly and went straight to work. Within 2.5 days Robert had completed the removal and installation of 25 windows. His work - sheer perfection! Robert is truly a master craftsman you would never even know that the new windows were not the existing ones in the home. His careful and precise work left the original window framework completely intact. Words cannot describe how thoroughly delighted we are in the finished product. Once again, Brian Fallon communicated with us every step of the way – made site visits to our home the day of the roof install and during the window Installation as well. Five Stars are not enough to give to Brian, Robert and to the Trenton Roofing team. If you are contemplating roof/window replacement – don’t think twice just call Trenton Roofing. The entire team are true professionals. Thank you for the excellent job – our house never looked better! Joe and Anne Paglione – Yardley, PA"

"We needed a roof repair to buy us another year or so before a complete replacement. I had several companies come out for estimates and they ran the gamut, from , "no can't fix it, replace it", to "sure, I can caulk that for you". Romano Roofing was the only company that really tried to balance what was needed with being mindful of my budget. They gave me a couple of options, and honestly, of all the estimates I received, Romano's was the only one that made sense. They explained all the details of the repair I needed and the limitations of matching shingles, etc. The job was scheduled sooner than expected and the crew arrived in a timely manner, and did a thorough, neat job. Despite the warning of not being able to match my existing shingles, it's a barely noticeable difference in color. Everyone I dealt with from first phone call to final payment was professional and helpful. When the time comes for the full replacement, I know I only need to make one call. Definitely would recommend Romano Roofing."

"Universal Roofing delivered a great looking roof, high quality, and as promised in terms of time and $. They also were responsive to special requests like painting my chimney and some minor shoring up of my gutters. I found the team who did the installation to be careful and respectful – covering up my tree and plants that I had out front to prevent damage. I am very satisfied that it was done right and that I should not have to worry about my roof again for a very long time. Thanks."

"My roof looks like new! No algae or mold anywhere, and the all dirt has been cleaned off. Plus, Paul took his time to look over the roof and report on it's condition. After he was done, the cleanup left the area around my house looking better than before. Couldn't be happier with the experience. Thanks!"

"Professional all the way. <br /> Mark the estimator, Liddo the foreman, and Amy the office manager all worked to get us the solution to our roofing problem. <br /> On roofing day, Liddo set the tone for the crew of 8.  They were neat, first putting down tarps to catch the material being removed and protecting the house and deck and then cleaning up after they finished.  As they worked on removing the old roof, we were kept informed on what they found and  what they would be doing.  They worked hard, as a team, preparing, tar papering, flashing and shingling the roof.  <br /> I would definitely use them again. I recommend them highly. <br />"

"I was afraid I was going to need an entire new roof, but after looking it over, Ed felt most of the roof was in decent shape for its age, and that we could get away with just a repair at this time. Since I'm hoping to install solar in the next couple years, and plan to replace the roof then, we opted for the repair. After a minor communication issue (my email reply had gone into his spam folder), we scheduled the work. The workman arrived as promised and worked all day on the repair. Ed came by to check on progress (he had been tied up on another job), but things were fine. We've had several heavy thunderstorms since the repair, with no leaking. Would hire again - he offered the repair even knowing it would cost him a full roof job, since he can't do the solar installation. If you contact him via email and don't hear back, call - just in case his email provider decided your email was spam!"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Princeton, NJ

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.
