Roofing
What to look for when selecting an ethical
Roofing Company:
Check for a permanent place of
business, telephone number and a business
license. A professional roofer will have these
readily available.
Don't hesitate to ask the
roofing contractor for proof of all the
insurances they carry.
Make sure they show you proof of
general liability and workers' compensation
insurance to protect you if your property is
damaged or if someone is injured working on your
property.
Make sure the contractor is
financially stable. A good company should not
ask for more than a 10 to 20% deposit.
Insist on a written proposal on
company letterhead. Before you sign a contract
make sure you understand all the terms of the
agreement and make sure it provides detailed
information on the work to be performed.
Have the contractor explain his
quality control procedures. Request that your
Sales Representative or contact person for the
company meet with you or call you.
Carefully read, understand, and
ask questions regarding any roof warranty
offered and watch for provisions that would void
it.
Look for a company with a proven
track record that allows you to call references
to verify their work.
Professionalism is very
important; look at how the company represents
itself during their first meeting with you.
If installing a new roof, select
a company that fully explains all your options.
If a company says you need a new roof, ask them
if they mind you getting a second opinion.
Questions to ask when
selecting a company in this industry:
What kind of debris will be left on my property, and
what kind of clean-up procedures does your company
follow?
How long have you been in business?
Will you let me call some of your past customers?
Have you done any roofs in my area I could look at?
What type of warranty do I receive?
Do you subcontract out your work, or will you bring
only employees to my job site?
Will I need a permit? Does your company provide the
permit?
How long will this job take?
What to avoid when selecting a business in this
industry:
Companies that subcontract out
all of their work. A company that asks for a large
deposit before starting a job. A company that pushes hard for a
decision on the first visit. A company that does not present
you with a detailed estimate on company
stationary. A company that asks you to pull
a permit? A company without a proven track
record. Be weary of an extreme low-ball
bid. The roofing industry is full of stories of
consumers who tried to get something for nothing
and paid dearly for it. |
