Roofing Contractor Directory
One of the perfect ways to choose a good roofer is to meet with them or speak with them over the phone and ask them some questions. To locate a good roofing company is to contact you can ask in your family, friends for referrals or do a Google search as there are many great roofing contractor directory sites that will provide you a short list of roofers in your area. It’s also very helpful to check out the contractor's own website as well.
Find roofing contractors, suppliers, manufacturers, roof damage insurance claims specialists, consultants, and roof inspectors.
Tips for selecting a best roofing contractor fall into three categories: the contractor's work, the contractor's qualifications, and the contractor's past. Read the tips below...
Qualifications
- First, do not hire a roofing contractor who is not licensed.
- Make sure they have a permanent business.
- Ask if they have insurance coverage and how much.
The Contractor's Workmanship
- All contractors also need to have a safety plan so ask your potential contractor to provide you with one.
- Find out how long the contractor's warranty on work performed is.
- The contractor should thoroughly discuss your home improvement project with you.
Past Performance and Customer Service
- Find out how long the contractor has been in business.
- Ask to see pictures of the contractor's work and for references from past customers.
- Many of the best contractors have had to handle complaints.
In addition to the above suggestions, another worthwhile tip for selecting a good roofing contractor is to find three roofing contractors you should considering submit three bids in writing. Having three bids in writing is helpful to compare products and prices the roofing contractors will use to complete the project. If one bid is significantly lower or higher than the others, this could be a red flag.
Again, roofing contractor’s directory websites can help streamline the process here, by putting you in contact with three commercial or residential roofing companies by filling out just one estimate request form.
