How to Know If You Should Change Your Current Roofer

Quality roofing materials and good workmanship are necessary for a quality roof replacement. For this reason, choosing a top notch professional roofing contractor is imperative. Hiring the wrong person can result in poor installation, delays in project completion and put your property at risk. Here are some things that will indicate that your contractor is an unqualified roofer.

Unjustified Additional Repairs

A roofer that you hired to work on a specific job continually finds other roof issues that you will have to pay for may be cause for concern. Make sure that you determine if these additional unwanted repairs are justified. You should always get in writing the tasks that you will pay for and the ones you refuse to pay for. Try to hire a new roofer if your roofing contractor continues to add on unjustified additional repairs.

Uninsured or Unlicensed Roofer

If you hire an uninsured or unlicensed roofer, you are putting your roofing project and your home at risk. You should always ask for proof of a roofing contractors’ licenses and permits. If the roofing contractor cannot show you these documents, you cannot rely on their service.
