Repairing or replacing your roof is not a small job and you’ll want a roofing company you can trust to do the job.

There are a few precautions that you can take to increase the chances of hiring a reliable and professional roofing company… and all the roof savvy people do the same!

Here are the five things you should do before hiring your roofer...

Shop Around For Roofing Companies

If you want quality work at the best price, it’s smarter not to go with the first person you find.

Make sure you look at a few different companies to compare prices, standard of work and even customer service. These things can be very telling of what is to come should you hire them to redo your roof. 

Check For Licensing and Insurance

It is easy to assume that every contractor out there has the correct licensing and insurance.

However, this isn’t always the case.

If the contractor you hire doesn’t have these documents and something goes wrong, you leave yourself at risk of an expensive bill... and an unfinished roof!

Look At The Roofer’s Past Works

A sure way to determine the standard of work that the roofing company in question has to offer is to look at what they’ve done before.

Looking at their website, reviews or even asking them if you can go to a site and see it for yourself is a great way to ensure that you are getting the best roofing company on offer.

Get a Quote In Writing

For those wanting to protect themselves from hidden fees and unwanted expenses, asking for a definitive quote in writing can be your best protection.

If the roofing company can’t provide you with a quote promptly, it’s likely that it will set the tone for the rest of the contract.

Go Local

If you choose a contractor from your own locality, you’ll be much more likely to avoid scams or extra travel fees.

They will also be much more knowledgeable on any code regulations and local requirements that may be applicable to your area, as well as the possibility of having a relationship with suppliers and area crews!
