How to Hire a Roofing Contractor

Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home, so choosing the right roofing contractor deserves careful consideration. Taking time to compare your options can help you make a more informed decision before work begins.

What to Look For

  1. Understand the work being recommended.

    Ask the contractor to explain what repairs or replacement are being proposed and why they believe the work is needed.

  2. Request a written estimate.

    A written estimate should clearly describe the scope of work, materials, estimated cost, and any additional services included.

  3. Ask about roofing materials.

    Different roofing materials have different appearances, lifespans, and manufacturer warranties. Ask why the recommended materials are appropriate for your home.

  4. Discuss the project timeline.

    Ask when work is expected to begin, how long it may take, and what factors could affect the schedule.

  5. Ask about cleanup.

    Find out how debris, old roofing materials, and nails will be removed from your property after the project is complete.

  6. Review workmanship and manufacturer warranties.

    Understand what warranties may apply to both the installation and the roofing materials.

  7. Ask questions until you’re comfortable.

    A professional roofing contractor should be willing to explain the project and answer your questions clearly before work begins.

  8. Browse Verified Local Roofing Contractors.
