"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!) "

"Awesome, Reuben from MND came and assessed my needs. Gave me a great quote with upgrades. The roofing crew of 6 guys completely removed the old shingles, repaired damaged sheathing and installed new roof in less than a day (in record breaking temperatures). A military friendly company! A definite recommendation!"

"This was the third time I've hired Thomas Trades for home improvements, and they come through like champs every time. The work is done to a professional finish, with detail as suits the homeowner. They do not work until it's "good enough" - they work until it is finished properly. We need more people in this industry like Josh Thomas. He is on my go-to list whenever I need renovations and repairs to my home."

"Sebastian and the crew were amazing from start to finish. They answered all of our questions and concerns. They were able to come out quickly to trim 3 large branches from our oak tree. The job was completed perfectly and the crew cleaned the lawn and roof afterwards. We are very happy with how it turned out and would definitely recommend them. Thank you Tree Work Now ?"

"<p>The roofers worked efficiently and neatly.  They cleaned up the property perfectly.  The job was completed in the time frame that we requested.  </p> <p>The pricing of the roof was very competitive.</p> <p>The most compelling reason to use this company was the help of the owner Allan Schroeder in determining our requirements for NCIUA mitigation of insurance rates. He was very knowledgeable about these very specific specs to obtaint a Bronze, Silver, or Gold certificate for a reduction of windstorm insurance rates in NC. We are applying for the bronze certificate. Other roofing companies, including the most expensive, were not familiar with these requirements.  Mr. Schroeder supplied me with the paperwork to apply for the mitigation.</p>"

"We selected Ray Rinardo's company based on previous Angie List reviews. We knew nothing about his company and hoped that the reviews were accurate. We were not disappointed. The owner was courteous, consistent, honest, timely and lived up to every aspect of the contract we executed. From start to finish, everything Ray Rinardo promised, he and his staff delivered. Not only did he and his staff perform his job as promised, he fixed prior contractors poor quality without hesitation and without asking for additional money. Discussions with Ray during the job confirmed that he would rather turn down a job than do it poorly. Ray used quality materials and installed it better than any roof I have ever seen installed. I have had several bad experiences with contractors in the past and am now very hesitant in allowing just anyone to work on my property. Ray Rinardo provided insurance verification, contractor licenses and transacted the bid process in a way that every other contractor should emulate. If you are looking for a roofer in the Lafayette area I would recommend Ray Rinardo without hesitation. We received everything we asked for from Ray Rinardo and more. Thank you Ray and your staff."

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.
