The 10 critical questions to be asked from the roofing contractors when your plan to hire for roof construction.

1. What 10 Important Questions to
Ask from Roofing Contractor?

2. 1. What is the effect of
age on my roof
impacting its wear?
Wear is caused by age. It is
important to let the roofing
contractor be aware of the
condition of the roof in order to
determine potential issues that
cannot be apparent from a
distance.

3. 2. How can you cool my
roof?
Heat rises. While you cook, wash
and shower, and even live in your
home, you generate the heat and
humidity. Once it reaches the
attic with no ventilation, a series
of major issues in the hot, dark
humid attic could cause costly
maintenance expenses.
Remember that attics function as
an air filtration system for the
house. Make sure it is properly
well-ventilated to keep it dry and
cool.

4. 3. What is the
manufacturer’s
warranty for the
material?
Write it down. You must verify
the number of years, whether it’s
30 years or fifty years. The
warranty may cover labour,
craftsmanship, and
transferability. Spend some time
learning about the warranty,
particularly in the event of any
exclusions.

5. 4. What are the costs
that are not known?
The most elusive cost is the cost
of wood. Although no one is
aware of the amount of wood
you’ll have to replace or repair,
you will be able to determine the
cost per foot if you decide to do.
In some cases, 50 to 100 feet is
included. Find out the wood cost
per foot before getting going.

6. 5. How long were you
involved in your
business?
Inform them of recent roofing
projects they’ve completed. It is
the quality and durability of the
final product will depend on the
experience of the contractor.
Look up the most recent Google
reviews.

7. 6. What type of license
do contractors have?
Many cities do not require a
roofing license to do a roof. If a
roofing contractor has experience
as a general contractor, they will
likely be knowledgeable of the
challenges with regard to how
your roof must accommodate
unique shapes or other things
you’re doing such as solar, HVAC
skylights, etc.

8. 7. Does the roofing
contractor name you as
a second insured on his
Certificate of Liability
Insurance?
Although it’s not a requirement
by law, a lot of commercial
roofing Contractors undergo
the administrative process to
ensure that the client is listed on
the insurance policy for the work.

9. 8. Will you be installing
a new underlayment, as
well as a brand new
drip edge across the
exterior?
The Drip Edge metal can be
described as the small piece of
aluminium beneath the shingle
at the edge of your roof which
extends out ahead as it leaves the
roof. This redirects water out of
the fascia for wood once it is able
to exit your roof. The
underlayment covers all the
wood to stop water from entering
the wood.

10. 9. Do you have a project
manager whom I can
contact during the
course of the project?
This is crucial for a variety of
reasons. There’s always
something that you didn’t know
about or want the roofers to be
aware of. You must ensure that
you have a reliable contact point.

11. 10. Can you provide a
written estimate?
It is recommended to get the
information in the form of a
document. Be sure that there
aren’t any unexpected costs at
the end.
