Selecting a Reputable Roofing Contractor

Do you know what to do when you see missing shingles, have storm damage on your home or are just in need of an annual roofing inspection? Most people will just possibly ask their family and friends if they know someone or search for a local roofer online. This can be a hard decision when choosing the right roofing contractor for the job. You want to make sure that you choose a roofer that is trustworthy, reputable and is highly skilled in the roofing industry. Here are 5 top tips that will help you choose the right roofing contractor for the job. 

1. Check the company out online:  When choosing the right roofing company you want to first do your homework. A reputable roofing contractor will have an online presence that shows work completed as well as many customer review and testimonials.  It is very important to read the reviews and make sure that they have highly satisfied customers.  It is good to read through each review to see what scope of work they completed, such as storm damaged roofing, metal roofing installation or new construction installation.  
2. Make sure the company has been in the area for a while:  When choosing the right roofing company you want to make sure that the company isn't brand new in the community.  A more established company has usually had many more hours and years in the roofing industry and know exactly how to handle each individual project.
3. Check for proper license and insurance: A reputable roofing company will be license and insured and can provide that information if needed. You can also confirm their status online. They should also be GAF certified.  GAF certification guarantees that your project will be completed with the highest quality roofing products in the industry today.
   
4. Have them provide you with a roof inspection before any work is completed:  This is a very important step when choosing the right roofing company.  You do not want them to start any work without showing you details and pictures about your roof. They will access the shingles, condition of the tiles, any leaks and much more. 
5. Hire a local roofing company:  When you hire a local roofing company for your project they are readily available if anything arises during the roofing process. They also know about all of the local roofing prices on material so that the roofing quote will be accurate. A local roofer also know the different roofing shingles that are available in your area. 
   

Of course there are many different ways that you can find a reputable roofer in your area. When you are in need of a local Dalton roofer or a local Chattanooga roofer give Hernandez Roofing and Construction a call. We will make sure that you are our next satisfied customer!
