How to Hire a Roofing Contractor

When you’re ready to hire a roofing contractor, there are two types to consider: independent contractors and roofing companies. There are pros and cons to both. Always compare bids for the best price and check roofer reviews, references and qualifications.

Independent roofing contractors can be helpful for quick repairs. Because they either work independently or with subcontractors, it may take longer to complete large projects, like replacing your old roof. However, they may specialize in a particular style. Hiring an individual can be a risk, but it means you’ll see and work with the same person for the duration of the project.

Roofing companies are more likely to complete large jobs more quickly, have their work covered by manufacturer warranties, offer discounts or free consultations and work with more materials. However, you may not have the same point of contact for each phase of the project.

Don’t give in to pressure

If you haven’t heard of the word storm chasers before, you might need to be more cautious of these “professionals” who come to you with the aim of getting you to sign a contract. Most of them try to convince you that they were in your area and that they handled various other roofing projects there. You never have to sign an intent letter by being told that you have storm damage to your home. If you need to have your roof inspected, or repaired, it’s better to call renown professional roofers in your area, as they have the experience needed to provide the best results.
