Find North Carolina Roofing Contractors

Plan your project.

Before starting the search for a roofing contractor, you should have a good idea of the work you want to be done.

This can be as simple as installing new shingles or repairing cedar shakes, but simply knowing what general service you want will help you in your search for contractors who specialize in that type of project.

Then, list all the project information your contractor may need to know, like:

• roof's approximate square footage
• desired roofing materials
• budgetary constraints
• scheduling requests or restrictions

If you're unsure of any of this information, discuss it with each roofer you speak to. (We recommend getting quotes from a minimum of 3 roofers to ensure you make the right choice.)

Require a written contract.

Always get a written contract and go over it in depth to ensure it is up to snuff before signing. This will help minimize any surprises during your roofing project.

A good contract should outline…

• the work that will be done
• the roofing material and equipment that will be used
• a payment schedule
• a timetable for completion

Don’t be afraid to ask for clarification from your contractor before signing the contract.
