"We contacted Lakeside one afternoon and Daniel came out the very next day! Daniel inspected the roof, taking pictures of the damage. Our roofing tiles are no longer sold so he found ones that look almost identical and had our roof repaired that same day! Our roof was fixed and they cleaned up after themselves leaving no nails or trash around the yard. Our experience with them was fantastic! Whenever we need roof work done, we're calling Lakeside Roofing for sure. We highly recommend them!"
"Well folks, let me tell you about this awesome roofing company - Outdoor Creations Roofing(OCR). I'd been watching this company from week to week on different roofs in our Nottingham neighborhood in Broken Arrow. From start to finish, the workers will have the roofs done in 2-3 days; leaving each home with an immaculate new roof....WOW! Then one day, I received that 'special' knock at my door, to be greeted with a big smile, good handshake, and great professionalism. These guys run an awesome and professional business. Word of mouth is always good, but putting it in writing is even better! This company, OCR, provided a great LIFETIME product throughout our neighborhood for the betterment of our homes. I strongly advice that you use this company and forget about the others! GREAT JOB OCR!!! The Brimleys"
"They did an outstanding job. We were very happy, A very good quality shingle at a very reasonable price. The roof was absolutely beautiful. What also impressed us was the owner was on site overseeing the job most of the time. The men working for him were very courteous and competent. They cleaned up the area after the roofing was done so well it was a rare thing to find even a small bit of debris."

"Fantastic. Booked only a week out from the call. Large professional crew arrived and did the entire roof in 7 hours. Clean up was complete. I didn't find so much as a nail. Payment was only requested after the job was done and I told them I was happy with the result. There were no hidden charges or BS. I wrote the check out for the exact amount on the estimate. Jerry's estimate came in from 1000 to 7000 dollars less than the other 5 estimates I got from Angie's list vendors. He's friendly, local, and great. No deficits to report."
"Operations manager, Scot Willis, was extremely responsive and knowledgeable. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have gone with Advantage if it wasn't for Scot. I feel that he was honest and didn't just try to sell me a roof (as overall the roof was fine) with many of the roofing companies coming in and overpromising. He helped me through the insurance process and even called back the gutter contractor to fix something that I overlooked."

Yes, materials like cool roofs and solar shingles may be considered.
A gable roof with steep pitches covered in asphalt shingles or wood shakes is the most popular roof for Cape Cod homes. Asphalt shingles started gaining popularity in the early 1900s, so wood shake roofs, which were popular in the 1700s when Cape Cod homes were first built, are the traditional option. You can further modernize your Cape Cod home by raising the roof in the front, back, or both to add living space and change up the traditional single-gable roof with doghouse dormers.
This will depend on your existing roof to some degree, but it’s common to raise a roof 4 to 8 feet. The exact amount you can raise is subject to the existing structure. For most homes with average roof slopes—20 to 45 degrees—you can raise the roof around 5 feet.
The proper specifications for furring strips can vary, so you should always consult the roofing manufacturer's guidelines or your roofer. However, general recommendations are as follows:
Thickness: Furring strips are typically 1 to 1-1/2 inches thick, meaning standard 1-by or 2-by lumber works well. In areas with extreme winds, a thinner strip may be preferred to limit how much air can get under the roof and cause uplift. A thicker strip can add slightly more insulation but will also increase installation costs.
Spacing: The recommended spacing for furring strips is between 12 and 24 inches apart on center. Proper spacing is crucial for ensuring good airflow, adequate drainage, noise reduction, and better energy efficiency. The ideal spacing can depend on the roof's pitch and the specific type of metal roofing being installed.
