What questions should I ask a roofing contractor?

• <div><p>Before hiring a roofing contractor to work on your project, there are a few things you will want to ask, including: </p><ul><li><p>Do you use roofing subcontractors?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer a warranty?</p></li><li><p>Do you have any references?</p></li><li><p>How will you clean up after the project is complete? </p></li><li><p>Will you remove my old or damaged roof?</p></li></ul><p></p></div> • <div><p>How long have your crews been working with you?</p><p>Do you offer a warranty?</p><p>Do you have any references?</p><p>How will you clean up after the project is complete?</p><p>Will you remove my old or damaged roof?</p></div> • <div><p>How long should this product last in my area and does the manufacturer stand behind the product for that length of time?</p><p>What is the difference between manufacturer and contractor warranty?</p><p>Do you have any references?</p></div> • <div><p>Will you remove my old or damaged roof?</p><p>Will the roof you install be warrantied against black streaks?</p><p>Will the roof you install last as long as the warranty? Or will it only last about half as long?</p></div> • <div><p>Does your company have multiple locations? This will let you know if they are truly local or a large company briefly working your area after a storm.</p><p>Do you offer a workmanship warranty? Confirm in writing the time length and details of such warranty.</p><p>Do you have quality reviews? All roofing contractors have references of their successful jobs. Good contractors won't have many negative reviews.</p><p>How will you protect our windows, siding and landscaping?</p><p>Will you remove my old or damaged roof?</p><p>Some disqualifying signs to look for are:</p><p>-Did the contractor cold call or knock on your door?</p><p>-Does the contractor look or talk like a salesman?</p><p>-Does the contractor have profiles on many different websites? Poor contractors will avoid an online presence to avoid bad reviews.</p></div>

Q: Should roofers be certified or licensed?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/states-require-roofing-license.htm">Although not every state issues licenses for roofing pros</a>, it's important to check with your county or city if hiring a licensed roofing contractor is necessary. Hiring an unlicensed roofer might result in low-quality work and potential legal issues if an accident happens. It&rsquo;s always best to check the qualifications and licenses of your roofer before they begin a project. </p><p>As you browse our pro listings, take note of the &ldquo;Angi Approved&rdquo; badge.
