How to Hire a Roofer That Matches Your Needs

A roof replacement is one of the largest home improvement projects that you can tackle. It will likely take a significant amount of time and money so choosing a roofer who’s a good match for your needs is one of the most important decisions that you will have to make. But how do you go about finding a company that’s a good fit?

Ask for Referrals

With all the technology at our disposal and information just at the tip of our fingers, many homeowners think that asking friends and family for referrals is outdated. There is nothing further from the truth. Old-fashioned referrals give you a better feel of how your experience with your roofer is going to be. If friends or family members are satisfied with the work a contractor has done for them, they are more than likely to recommend them to you which can narrow down your search.

Look for Credentials and Certifications

A reputable roofer should have all the necessary licenses, insurance and workers’ compensation and liability coverage. You should always make sure that your roofer is a member of major trade associations, such as the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) or the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

Ask About The Person’s Experience

Make sure that the roofer you eventually hire is skilled and experienced. There is nothing wrong with hiring a fledgling roof repair or replacement company that is just starting out, but we recommend that you go with a company that has years of experience under its belt. This reduces the risk of any installation mistakes and the need for callbacks.
