"We had an exceptional experience with Johnathan, Jeffry, and their team. Their professionalism, friendliness, and expertise stood out from the start to the finish of our basement project. The process was smooth, transparent, and free of surprises, with clear cost and material outlines. We appreciated their flexibility in allowing us to choose different materials and only charging the price difference. When we added more work mid-project, they were accommodating and maintained high-quality workmanship. They provided a wide selection of cabinets, flooring, tiles, mirrors, and bathroom faucets. The project was completed on time and within budget. We are thrilled with the results and plan to work with them again. Everyone who has seen our basement loves it! Overall, we highly recommend their services."

Bent Palm is a complete residential design build company specializing in decks, porches, patios, fire-pits, outdoor kitchens, and more. We have a professional team of specialists that are ready to create a custom plan for your individual needs. Our innovative 3D designs are created to complement the aesthetic of your home and natural surroundings of your property. At Bent Palm, we love what we do and are confident that you will appreciate working with a professional design build company giving each customer the individual attention from the first design consultation to project completion.
"Bent Palm gave me a great quote and completed the project on time. From my perspective, the other key component is that he was able to get approval of all of the various inspections by Montgomery County Maryland on time. Obviously Bent Palm has an ongoing relationship with the county building inspectors and the project was constructed properly and on time. Another reason that I’m giving Ben Palm a five star evaluation is because a previous contractor informed me that the only way I could put a screened in porch on the back of my house is to file for a variance. Bent Palm built my screened in porch with no variance and approved by the county. Further the quality of the work was outstanding. Not only did he have contractors to do carpentry work, but he had a great electrician and an even better painter. At the end of the day, the project turned out fantastic."

"All the people at Elevate Design and Build were amazing and a pleasure to work with. We doubled the size of our house including tripling the size of the kitchen, knocking out walls to create an open floor plan and added a three car garage with home office over the garage. They even recommended modifications to our original blueprints which were excellent. All their workers friendly and did a first class job. Went totally above and beyond our expectations. One year later we have not had one single problem with any of the work. Total integrity. If any issue came up, the company absorbed the cost - not the customer. Everything they did was done perfectly. We didn't have a single issue or complaint during the entire process. I give them my highest personal recommendation. I would never use anyone else."

You can typically raise your roof by four to eight feet, depending on your home's structure and roof design. The exact amount depends on factors like roof slope and framing support. Raising the roof creates additional interior space, enhances natural light, and increases your home's value. Consult a professional to determine the feasible height increase for your home.
Yes, you need a building permit to raise your roof. Obtaining a building permit ensures your project complies with local building codes and safety regulations. A professional contractor can assist with the permit and inspection process and ensure all legal and safety requirements are met. Your contractor will be familiar with building codes in your area, which can differ between cities or states.
While it's possible to raise a flat roof, it requires extensive structural modifications. Flat roofs lack the attic space and support structures of pitched roofs, so raising them involves significant engineering to ensure safety and durability. This process can be complex and costly, so professional assessment is essential before undertaking a project of this magnitude.
