1. What Is Your Insurance Plan?

Roof installation is a very physical job, so it comes with a certain degree of risk. Contractors work on your property at your behest, which means a gap in the insurance policy could leave you on the hook for a huge bill if someone is injured. Comparing your contractor's operating insurance to your personal home insurance lets you check for any potential holes in the coverage. A professional roofing company will ensure you're on the same page when it comes to insurance.

2. Do You Discard the Old Materials?

For most homes, installation is synonymous with replacement. All the tile, wood, screws, and glue that made up your old roof must go somewhere. A high-quality contractor will haul the old materials to an appropriate disposal site. However, a lower-quality contractor may not. You should always check before the installation begins. Depending on the condition of your lawn, you may want to learn the procedure for getting the old material off your roof before hauling it away. A great contractor will work with you to preserve the appeal of your lawn as they gather the refuse to discard it.

3. How Long Have You Been in Business?

If you need a tiebreaker when deciding who to hire for roof installation, experience is a fantastic thing to check. While one contractor may be perfectly satisfactory, you can't beat the more experienced contractor with reasonable prices and the right insurance! Plus, roofing companies with more years of experience likely have a proven track record in your area, so you can check out their previous work to ensure you're getting the best deal for your project.

If it's time to replace your roof, a little research can save you a lot of money in the long run. Asking a few simple questions can improve your roofing project's value. Our contractors here at High Caliber Roofing are more than happy to answer these questions, so call us today!
