5 Quick Roofing Tips
Your roof is one of the most
important yet neglected parts of
your home. You don't usually think
about your roof until it starts to
leak or gets damaged. If it is time
to have your roof replaced read
these 5 quick tips to help you with
your roofing project.
1. Get a written contract. Get
everything in writing before your
roofer begins work so that there are
no surprises. The bid should be
detailed giving you prices for
labor, materials, etc.
2. Check your roofer out before you
begin work. Don't just ask for
references, pick up the phone and
call them. Also make sure that they
are licensed and insured.
3. Never pay for the job all up
front. Most companies will want some
sort of down payment but you should
never pay for the entire job before
it has been completed.
4. Get multiple bids. Don't just get
one or two bids. This is a big job
and you need many bids to compare.
Beware of the lowest bidder and
remember that you do not want to be
ripped off and you also get what you
pay for.
5. Be wary of con artists. Watch out
for lowballers wanting large
deposits or contractors who knock on
your door soliciting. If a deal
sounds too good to be true it
probably is.
Having a roof replaced is a big job.
Take your time, do your homework and
you will get through this home
repair project easily.
