Add-a-Levels
Raise The Roof specializes in creating two-story homes through custom-designed add-a-levels that maximize vertical space. Our expert team ensures structural integrity while transforming single-story residences into spacious multi-level properties. Clients benefit from increased living area without expanding property footprints, maintaining neighborhood aesthetics while achieving modern functionality.
Home Additions
We design and construct tailored home additions including kitchens, bathrooms, and mother-in-law suites. Our process integrates new spaces seamlessly with existing architecture while meeting evolving family needs. From gourmet kitchens to entertainment rooms, each project maintains structural coherence and enhances property value through premium materials and precise craftsmanship.
Dormers
Our dormer installations combine aesthetic appeal with practical space optimization. By extending roof structures vertically, we create additional headroom and natural lighting for upper-level spaces. This solution particularly benefits growing families seeking functional attic conversions while maintaining exterior architectural harmony.
Roofing
Raise The Roof provides comprehensive roofing solutions that protect structural integrity while enhancing curb appeal. Our services include complete roof replacements, cedar siding installation, and storm damage repairs using durable materials. Clients receive long-lasting protection against weather elements with options that complement various architectural styles.
Decks
Custom deck and porch installations expand usable outdoor space while boosting property value. We create weather-resistant structures tailored to client preferences, from simple patios to elaborate multi-level designs. Each project emphasizes safety, durability, and aesthetic integration with the home's existing exterior features.

Report
Used this company in 2002 for major kitchen addition andwhole new roof. Had them back 2-3 times for a leak around chimney which was never fixed. This week we had the roof replaced because of the leak and poor quality of shingles. Tar paper was not placed all the way to the top. The shingles were supposed to be 25 year shingles. Needless to say. 16 years later we paid for a new roof. No thanks to raise the roof. Wont ever recommend them

I used Raise the Roof for two major projects on my home. The first was 30 years ago, when I added a major addition for a kitchen. They also put on a very large deck at the same time. I was very happy with the quality of work and also with the professionalism of the crew and owner, Steve Paterno. When it came time for my mother to stop living alone, I called on Raise the Roof again to put on a mother-in -law suite. This time they also organized a patio addition. Everything went smoothly thru the drawings, permits, inspections, and the completion of the job. They came in right on budget and also

Since buying my home in 1998, I had a vision of what I wanted my house to become. There were many projects. Kitchen addition, Family room addition with half bath, Front Porch, Bedroom, Deck....the list goes on. Raise the Roof worked with me to from the planning to the finished project. The work was done efficiently, and in a timely manor. While working full-time, I entrusted the project to Steve knowing I was in excellent hands. The finished projects left me with the home my friends and family have enjoyed over the years.

My husband and I recently completed a project in Clark with Raise the Roof. Dealing with this company was very professional. They were knowledgeable and did a beautiful job. Their end of the job was completed in a timely manner and they were always willing to answer any of our questions. I highly recommend using Raise the Roof for any addition you would like to do.
