When you need a new roof, the contractor you choose to work on your property can make a big difference in the final results. Similar to most service-based companies, not all roofing contractors are created equal. Therefore,doing your homework before hiring a contractor can mean the difference between getting quality work done and ending up with pricey roofing issues. Here are a few tips All American Roofing recommends looking out for when hiring a roofing company to take care of your property:

Licensing

One of the first and most important things you should look for in a roofing company is proper licensing and insurance. If the company is not licensed in your state or does not carry liability and compensation insurance,you are not protected from poor workmanship, damage or accidents that occur on your property.

Warranty

Another key factor in choosing your roofer is making sure the company offers a warranty policy that covers both project materials and work completed. If a contractor installs your roof incorrectly, it may take months or years for the damage to show up, and in most cases, insurance companies won’t pay for it. Warranties can vary depending on the roofer you are researching, so be sure to confirm whether or not your roofing service needs will be met using the current warranty agreement.

Materials

Your contractor needs to be more than just your roofer, he or she needs to be your ally. When choosing materials for your roof, a professional roofer should balance the budget, taste and safety of the client’s property while constantly remaining in communication with the property owners.A roofer that suggests the cheapest or easiest option without a proper consultation may be cheating you out of a valuable roofing experience.
