Things to Expect When Tackling a Roofing Project

Before you hire professional roofer, orient yourself on what to expect from your roofing project. Today, Quality Assurance Roofing discusses more on this topic.

Find a Licensed Contractor

The first thing to do is to find a roofing contractor. You should start with word-of-mouth recommendation or your own research. With many contractors offering these services, it’s ideal to look for licensed roofers who are in your vicinity. Check their credentials and testimonials from previous clients to learn about your prospective roofing contractor and their work ethics.

Roof Estimation

Before starting your roofing project, invite the contractor to perform a thorough inspection of your roof. It’s during this time you will know your contractor’s estimated cost for your project, whether it’s repair or replacement. Contractors should also provide an estimated cost for the materials you want for your project. Don’t forget to ask about potential additional charges you would incur during the project.

Roofing Permit

Most states require permits before any construction work is done. Ask your contractor if you should procure it yourself, though most contractors obtain it as part of their services.

Sudden Roof Repairs

Even after the initial inspection, the contractor may still find issues after the project is underway. Don’t worry; a professional contractor will run you down on the scale of roof repair needed before the project resumes. This is why it’s a good idea to set aside 10% to 20% of the total projected cost to cover for such instances.

Roofing Project Timeline

Your roofing project’s timeline depends on the scope of what you wish to accomplish. A regular roof repair project lasts around a week to finish, but if unforeseen problems arise, expect the project to take longer.
