Hiring a roofing contractor is one of the most important tasks you as a homeowner will have to take care. As it helps protect the entire rest of your home from the elements the roof is the most essential feature of your home.
You could end up doing more harm than good if you fail to hire the best roofing company for the job. In order to take the best possible care of your roof take the time required to find the right professional.
You Need to Know About Potential Candidates
The questions to be asked:
Are you insured and licensed?
It’s definitely yes. You must not consider anyone lacking these basic minimum requirements. With asking to see proof of current insurance and licensing there is nothing wrong.
Who will be on the job site?
The owner or a project manager will be supervising the project is the thing you want to hear. In charge of the project, and not just popping in from time to time there should always be an industry expert.
For my roofing estimate do you need to come inside the home?
You should avoid letting work on your roof if any so-called pro claims that they do not need to inspect your attic and come in. To look for the presence of moss, moisture, mildew, lichen, etc. the current condition of your attic needs to be assessed by a true professional.
Does the Roofing Contractor carry insurance?
Workers liability and compensation insurance needs to be specific. The home owner is liable if a worker is hurt and the roofing contractor does not have insurance. You must have the current certificates sent to you.
At their word do not accept the roofing contractor.
From previous jobs will the Roofing Contractor provide references or referrals?
Within the last twelve months a list of ten phone numbers and names of recent customers must be asked for. It is necessary to choose two or three randomly and call. At minimum four questions ask the referrals.
First, on a timely basis did he perform his work? Second, when asked for changes and information was he responsive? Third, as if he cared about the customers interests did he act? Finally, would the roofing contractor be called trustworthy?
