Hiring a Roofing Company? Top Questions to Ask

Interested in Hiring a Roofing Company? Whether you’re constructing your first house or replacing your old roof because it’s been damaged by time, it’s imperative to be very discriminating when hiring a roofing company for the job because not all service providers are created the same.

“The last thing you want is to end up with is hiring a roofing company that overcharges for mediocre work, and whose roofers are some of the most questionable characters you’ve ever met, so you better be ready to screen potential candidates effectively.”

To help you screen through when hiring a roofing company effectively, here is a list of questions you should ask.

 

Do they have a portfolio of all the work – or perhaps, the most recent projects they’ve accomplished?

The portfolio will give you valuable insight into the kinds of projects the company can take on and the results they actually deliver.

 

Is it okay to get a list of references that the company has worked for?

If the company has nothing to hide, they’ll be able to give you a few right away so you can find out more about how the company goes about projects and if their previous clients were satisfied working with them.

 

Do they have insurance, all the necessary licenses and certification?

All these legal documents are proof of the company’s commitment to upholding industry standards for the best provision of services to clients. These mean that they have undergone screening for qualification and have successfully met stringent requirements in order to be operational.

 

Are there situations that roofers wouldn’t want to work in? Will they work even when it’s raining?

Do they only work during the daytime? Can they work overtime if necessary? These are important questions to ask especially if you’re in a time crunch due to other construction activities for your house. There are roofing companies that are more flexible than others and they’re usually the best to hire because they work against delays effectively so you can stick to your schedule and budget.

 

How much do they charge for the services you require?

There are slight discrepancies among the rates of roofing companies, so you need to inquire about the cost, and have the company break it down in order for you to determine which company can provide you the best value for your money.

 

And lastly, what must you do in preparation for roofing?

The company should be able to advise you in terms of how your home should be prepared for the project so it can be accomplished without any hassles.
