How to Hire a Certified Roofer You Can Trust

When it comes time to hiring expert roofing services, you want to ensure that you’re paying someone you can trust to get the job done right. When push comes to shove, if you’re in the middle of an emergency, hiring an efficient and certified roofer can seem like a massive undertaking. Luckily, here are a few tips from our team at Advanced Roofing Solutions to help ensure you get the right roofer for the job. 

Make Sure to Check Credentials& Certification

Unfortunately, it’s a common tactic for unqualified and inexperienced individuals to advertise for heavily discounted roofing services and either fail to get the job done or take off with your deposits. This is particularly true if your area has recently been hit by a storm. If you’re in a pinch and looking for a certified roofer, make sure to always ask for references, look up the details of any qualifications that have been provided, and always check out potential options on the Better Business Bureau. 

Do Your Research 

When it comes to hiring repair and maintenance services, the internet will be your best friend for ensuring that you have multiple options to choose from. It’s always a good idea to compare rates and reviews when looking for roofing services, so remember to never immediately jump on your first lead, but compare a few different options. 

Inquire About Materials

When discussing your roofing needs with a potential service provider, don’t forget to always follow up and ask how they source their materials. You want to avoid low-cost materials such as rolled roofing which many often use to cut corners, and ensure your certified roofer is investing in more long-lasting materials with your shingles and underlayment. This will help guarantee you’ve gotten sustainable materials that will stand the test of time. 

Ask About Insurance Coverage

Most certified roofing companies will have two types of insurance, one which protects the business from liability if a customer is injured, and another which protects clients from accidents or injuries while the maintenance is taking place. When you’re looking into roofing service options, make sure to ask for proof of insurance as amateurs and inexperienced roofers will often not have this type of necessary coverage.
