Choosing a roofing contractor is one of the most important steps of getting a roof replacement. They handle and build the roof that you will trust to protect you for over the next decade. Contractors manage safety, energy, efficiency and structural integrity elements to ensure you get the best roof. Showalter Roofing has extensive experience in the roofing industry and has prepared a guide to picking a commercial roofing contractor.
Start by clearly understanding the roofing solutions your project requires. Whether it’s a complete replacement, roof repairs or regular maintenance, knowing what you need helps you communicate effectively with potential contractors and ensures accurate estimates.
Choose a contractor familiar with your area’s climate and building regulations. A local contractor is more accessible for follow-up service, inspections and emergency repairs. They will also have a reputation you can easily verify within your community.
Ensure any contractor you consider has the necessary credentials:
Licensing: Verify that the contractor is licensed to operate in your state.
Insurance: They should have liability and worker’s compensation insurance.
Experience: Look for extensive experience in handling commercial roofing projects similar to yours.
Investigate the contractor’s reputation:
The success of your roofing project also depends on the quality of materials and project management skills:
Obtain detailed, written estimates from several contractors. These should include the cost of materials, labor and any other expenses, allowing you to compare not just prices but also what is offered.
