Tips for Finding a Professional Roofer

There are many ways to find a roofer, but the key to a beautiful, hassle-free new roof is finding a professional roofer. Getting multiple bids is helpful, but its not always smart to automatically go with the lowest bid. There are a lot of "fly-by-night" roofing companies who will give a low bid to get your job and then provide you with sub par workmanship and materials.

Hometown helps you find a local roofer that will provide you with a quality roofing system at a fair price. Here are a few of the key questions that we use to screen residential roofers. We recommend you ask similar questions when interviewing a local roofer.

Is the Roofer Properly Insured?

Residential roofing contractors should be able to provide you with evidence of liability insurance and workers compensation certificates (workers compansation laws vary by state). If the roofer is not adequately insured, its possible that you could be held liable if there is a significant accident that occurs at your home.

Is the Roofer Properly Licensed?

Many states require a specific licensing for roofers and others do not. If your state has specific licensing requirements, check to make sure your selected roofing contractor has the necessary license. Simple asking the roofer to show you a copy will usually get the job done. You may need to double check with your state's licensing board to see if a license is required.

Does the Roofer Have a Proven Track Record?

How long has the roofing contractor been in business? Can they provide references from recently completed roof installations in your area? It's good practice to call a couple of these homeowners to make sure they are satisfied with the roofer's work.

What Warranties are Offered to Protect the Homeowner?

Make sure you understand what materials your roofer will be using and what the corresponding warranty is for those materials. Also, does the contractor warranty or guarantee their installation along with the materials? What circumstances would void the warranty?

Hometown's residential roofers are professional, licensed, insured, and affordable. Call today for an estimate.

As tempting as it is, roofers should not be chosen on price alone. If a bid seems to good to be true... it probably is. Find a roofer that offers you a fair price, but also has professional credentials - license, insurance, a good warranty for their work, and a proven track record of satisfied customers.
