How you can make sure you are hiring the right roofers


 
Advice,Business,Consumer
Whether you need roof repairs or a total replacement, choosing the right roofing contractors is vital. Your roof is your home's first line of defense against rain, snow and wind so it's important that it's properly installed. To ensure that you're hiring the right roofing companies, ask about these four factors: what materials are available, how well the employees are trained, whether the company is local and lastly, ask your friends and family members for recommendations.

Find A Contractor That Offers Different Options In Materials

Many homeowners choose asphalt shingles, but this doesn't mean that you need to use them. If you're looking for a something unusual, like copper, wood or slate, ask your contractor if he or she has experience with them. These materials may require a contractor with a little extra training so you want to make sure that they understand how these materials should be used.

Roofing Companies Should Be Well-Trained

Your contractor should be trained in both inspections and repairs. If you think you need just a few shingles reattached or replaced, it's tempting to call a local handyman to simply nail them down. While this handyman might be handy with a hammer, he or she is probably not as comfortable with determining whether your home needs a new roof. A contractor that specializes in roofs will be able to take a critical look at your home and help you determine whether you should contact your insurance company for a total replacement. It's not uncommon for insurance companies to try to avoid paying for a new roof and a knowledgeable contractor can help sway an insurance adjuster's mind if necessary.

Roofing Contractors Should Be Locally Established

It's not uncommon for homeowners to be inundated with offers for roof repair or replacement quotes after a storm. Some of these companies will be storm chasers -- companies that move from city to city whenever a storm hits taking advantage of the extra work caused by the storm. While it's possible that some of these contractors are professional and will do the work correctly, it's also possible that they're just there to take a homeowner's money. If they do show up to do the work, it's not uncommon for it to be done half-heartedly. Since the company is headquartered out of town, homeowners have little recourse when it comes to getting the contractor to pay for repairs.

Ask Your Neighbors For Recommendations

Lastly, ask your friends, family members and neighbors for recommendations on which roofing companies to use. You want to know about both positive and negative experiences and nothing is better than word of mouth advertising.

It's not difficult to find great roofing companies, as long as you know what to look for. Use these tips to make your search easy, but don't be afraid to contact multiple contractors so you can have more than one quote. This can help ensure that you're getting a fair price on your work, whether you need a simple repair or a full replacement.
