How to Choose the Right Roofing Contractor
The majority of homeowners and business owners want to trust their roofing jobs to a skilled roofing contractor. But opening the phone book or quickly googling roofers online will reveal dozens of choices. What should you look for? How can you be sure you choose a company that is reputable, honest and reliable?
Read Reviews & Customer Testimonials
One of the best ways to gauge what you can expect from a roofing contractor is to look at what their customers have to say. Review services like Yelp, Google, Angie’s List, and social media sites like Facebook can be helpful.
Keep in mind that unhappy customers are typically more vocal (and apt to leave reviews) than satisfied customers. Look for businesses that have a large ratio of positive reviews to every negative review and who take the time to respond to customer complaints. Dickson Roofing will also gladly provide customer testimonials and references upon request.
Look for Industry Certifications
Find out what certifications a prospective roofing company has, whether they’re licensed, bonded, and insured, and if they have any outstanding industry qualifications.
The Dickson Roofing team is comprised of Florida State-Certified Roofing Contractors, Florida State-Certified General Contractors, and features Florida High-Wind Certification from The Roofing Institute. We are proud members of the Florida Roofing & Sheet Metal Association and the Tile Roofing Institute.
Get an Estimate
We highly recommend shopping around. Never sign up for roof repair or replacement without first having a professional come to your home, perform an inspection, and then provide you with an itemized estimate. Not only will you be able to see what the contractor will charge, but it will enable you to compare it to bids from other companies in order to get the best price.
Ask Questions
Never feel like you’re asking too many questions. A serious, professional contractor will welcome your questions. Back away from any contractor who seems annoyed by too many questions. Here are some suggested questions to ask:
- How long have you been in business?
- Who owns your business and how long have they owned it?
- Will employees or sub-contractors install the roof? Is there a project they are working on right now where I can see them in action?
- How long will the roofing project take?
- What steps do you take for the safety of your workers?
- What steps do you take to ensure the safety of my home and my family?
- Will you provide written warranties for your workmanship and the product(s) you will be installing?
- Do you guarantee your work?
- What things might cause a deviation from the contracted price?
- Are any tax credits or utility rebates available to me on the new roof?
