You want an excellent roofer to perform a roof repair and replacement.
To ensure you’ve found the right one for the job, ask your prospective contractor these five questions.
1. Are You Licensed and Insured?
Licensed and insured roofers have the skills and knowledge to perform top-notch roofing. They also assume responsibility if something happens to their employees or your belongings. That said, a roofer with a license, liability insurance, and worker’s compensation insurance is a trustworthy roofer.
2. How Long Have You Been Roofing?
Experienced roof replacement companies can identify observable and hidden roof issues. They also have tried-and-tested methods to solve various roofing problems in the shortest time possible. These contractors often charge higher than new roofing companies, but they can guarantee excellent results.
3. How Will You Keep My Home Safe During the Job?
Dependable roofers have the proper equipment to prevent damage to your property. For example, they use ladder standoffs or scaffolding to prevent damaging gutters. When asking this question, allow them to lay out their safety and waste disposal plan to you.
4. What’s Your Roof Repair Procedure?
Excellent roofers explain their roof repair plan in full detail. They’ll tell you the problems they’ve observed, the ways to fix them step-by-step and the optimal time to do it. Ask them about any procedure you find questionable at any time.
5. What Will We Do When It Rains?
Storms are unpredictable. They will affect the project’s schedule and the safety of the employees. Your roofer should have a definite plan to protect your roof and their employees when this happens.
