8 Questions You Should Ask Yourself Before You Hire a Commercial Roofing Contractor

In the meantime, if you come across some contractors, here are eight questions you need to ask them before you decide to hire one.

Does the Roofing Contractor Have Workman’s Compensation Insurance?

Even though it is mandatory by law that roofing contractors provide workman’s compensation insurance, you should ask them if the employees are covered.

Why? Some companies don’t offer insurance coverage to their employees. In this scenario, it is risky since an accident could occur on your premises, and you could be responsible.

Moreover, you will be requested to pay the medical bills. If you want to avoid this situation, you need to ask the roofing contractor whether he provides workman’s compensation insurance.

What is the NAP (Name, Address, and Phone Number)—Is He Local?

If you’re ready to hire a roofing specialist, make sure he has a physical office. If the contractor doesn’t have a physical address, it is a sign that the contractor isn’t credible.

Make sure you ask for the physical address, full name, and phone number. This will prove that they are trustworthy and local.

Will the Contractor Install Edge Metal or Drip Edge Metal During Installation?

The edge metal and drip edge are tiny pieces of aluminum located beneath the shingle. It will assist direct the runoff and the wood will remain protected. Some roofers may not install unless you ask them. So, ensure you ask the contractor about it.

Does the Contractor Work with Other Roofing Subcontractors?

There are roofing contractors who will continuously work with subcontractors on roofing projects. Ensure you ask about them and verify if they have general liability insurance and workman’s compensation insurance. If possible, you may get the documentation so that you are secure.

Will He Get Rid of the Old Roof?

It is common for a professional roofer to inspect your roof before they decide to repair it. Some issues, such as rust and holes, may not be detected, and if the problems persist, you will deal with further roofing problems later on.

If you need the old roof removed, you need to contact a professional roofing contractor. Make sure you ask him if he can do it before you hire him.

Is the Contractor Licensed?

Several states will need roofers to be licensed and insured before they offer roofing services. However, building codes will be different in different states. So, that means you will have to know more about the building codes in your location.

It will help you see if you’re hiring a roofer who understands the building codes of that state. Finding out if they are insured and licensed will protect you should something wrong happen.

Will the Contractor Use Standoffs or Ladder Stabilizers to Keep the Gutters Safe During Installation?

If you seek to install a new roof, you could easily forget how roofers will reach your roof. It is crucial to protect your gutters if you are planning to install a new roof. Ladder stabilizers and standoffs weigh an estimate of a hundred pounds, and they can cause damage to your gutters.

Make sure you ask the roofer whether these tools will be used and how they intend to protect the gutters. If they don’t have a solution, you can seek another roofing contractor.

Will the Contractor Offer a Written Quotation?

A professional roofing contractor should offer a comprehensive estimate. Before you decide to hire the roofer, ask him to give you a complete quotation. It is crucial to find out the cost of repairing your roof, installing a new roof, the products, and anything required.

You don’t want to come across hidden charges when the project is complete. A professional roofing contractor needs to be honest and transparent. That’s why it is essential to request the quotation.

Roofers are busy people, and they will travel to numerous places to repair or install roofs. If you want excellent services at reasonable prices, you should consider hiring a well-known local roofing contractor.

Not only will you have peace of mind, but you will save time. If the roofing contractor is from another state, you can seek another one.
