5 Things You Should Know When Looking For A Roofer

Choosing a roofing company is a big decision. After all, your roof is the only thing separating you and mother nature. When deciding on which company to go with, take into account these things:

1. Ensure the company is TRUSTWORTHY.

 

Their warranties and guarantees should be updated and on their website. Rock City Roofing takes 2 of the best manufacturer warranties available and merges them by overlapping a Limited LIFETIME Shingle Warranty 20 YEAR, Non-Prorated, Extended Sure Start Warranty.

2. How long have they been in business?

 

Choose a company with experience. Check the morals and foundation the company stands on. The last thing you want is to go through the process of replacing a roof just to find out you were scammed and your roof wasn’t really repaired. Rock City Roofing was started for YOU.

3. The cheapest is not always best.

 

Compare the costs among the companies. Rock City Roofing can provide you with a FREE ESTIMATE. Remember, the lowest bid does not guarantee the best work. Extremely low bids should be a red flag. If you decide to go “roofer shopping” ask yourself these questions:

-Are you getting the same quality materials?
-What is included?
-Does this cover cleanup and debris removal?
-Does the work come with a warranty?

Oftentimes, the lowest bid is not the one you want to go with. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

4. Get local referrals.

 

Read reviews and talk to people in your community. There is less chance of potential issues or scams when you choose a contractor who serves your area. Reviews of prospective contractors will answer many questions. Did they do what they said they would? Was it done in a timely manner? Did the client like the company?

5. Research Better Business Bureau (BBB) ratings.

 

Some contractors blow in (no pun intended) right after a storm looking for work. Check their score and make sure their standings with the BBB are good. If a roofing contractor doesn't exist on BBB.org stay away. Rock City Roofing is required to maintain satisfactory ratings with the BBB in order to retain their certification.
