4 Steps to Choosing the Right Residential Roofing Company for a Quality Roof Installation

 

A new roof is one of the larger investments that a homeowner will make.  Installing a new roof doesn’t have to be a stressful and concerning process if you are working with a professional and experienced roofing installation company.  It may be confusing to determine who the right company is, and what qualifications are important during your selection. Four points listed below are the most important items for a roof installation company to ensure a quick, worry free, and professional installation experience.

1.       Choose a roofing company that is licensed, bonded and insured. When you are working with a licensed and insured roofing company you receive assurances that they are experienced and meet industry standards for qualifications and safety.  It is important to work with a legitimate installation company who follows all regulations and specifications in regard to staffing, installation, and materials.

2.       Choose a roofing company that has been in business for some time and is not a newcomer to the industry. When you work with a business that has longevity, you can be confident they have gained knowledge through long term experience.

3.       Make sure your roofing contractor has a physical place of business and answers their phone during business hours. If they are working out of their home that does not engender confidence in their longevity. An answering machine is worrisome if an emergency should arise.

4.       Choose a roofing company that is willing and able to provide you with long-term references.  Ask for a few recent references and also ask for a few references from 5 or 10 years ago. This is a good way to check on long term customer satisfaction. References can help to determine what other customers have experienced in the past and if you will share those same (good or bad) experiences.
