The roof is one of the most important parts of any home, building, or other structure. Just as important is the roofer you hire to install, inspect, maintain, or repair it, as the quality of their workmanship directly affects the performance of the roof. If you don’t know what you should be looking for in a roofer, here are four basic questions to ask.
- Are you licensed and insured? It’s essential to hire a licensed and insured roofer. Don’t just take their word for it either; ask for their information and verify it yourself. Hiring a licensed roofer means they have the proper training to do the work you need done, while their insurance offers you peace of mind that you won’t be financially responsible if a worker is injured or damages occur during the project.
- Do you offer any warranties? A great roof warranty gives you peace of mind and allows you to get problems fixed if there are material defects, installation issues, etc. Ask your roofer about the warranties they offer so you can determine whether there is enough of a safety net.
- Is financing available? Many people don’t pay for their roofing projects in cash and need some form of financing. Ask your roofer what options are available.
- How will you protect my lawn and landscaping? Roofers you can trust will do their best to leave your property the way they found it. That means not trampling your plants, damaging your lawn, or leaving behind debris. Ask your roofer what their plan is to protect your yard during the project.
