Selecting a roofing company that you can trust to do a good job at a fair price takes some time and effort. These are questions that homeowners often have about selecting a roofing company and getting started.
Roofing Companies FAQ’s
Yes, many roofing companies give free estimates. This is an opportunity for you to gather information about potential roofing companies and about the condition of your roof and the cost to repair or replace it. We recommend that you take your time researching companies and contact them to come out and do a free estimate, rather than only taking estimates from roofing companies that contact you. Here is a step-by-step example of the process for getting started with a roofing project.
To find a good roofing company, check the following information:
- Local roofing company with physical location in your area and several years in business.
- Can provide customer reviews and references.
- Has an A rating with the Better Business Bureau.
- Licensed with your state regulatory department.
- Carries the minimum insurance in your state.
It’s always a good idea to begin by asking your family, friends and co-workers for recommendations. However, keep in mind that it takes more than one happy customer to verify that a roofing company will perform their work well and handle your project fairly and ethically. See our Guide to Choosing a Roofing Company for more information.
The cheapest way to replace a roof is to get estimates from three or more reputable roofing companies and select the most affordable option. Keep in mind, the key is to make sure that the company has an excellent track record of performing good work. Fly by night contractors might charge less up front, but are likely to leave your roof unfinished, or leave shoddy work that you have to pay even more money to repair. When selecting a roofing material, asphalt shingles are the most affordable roof replacement material.
Yes, many roofing companies offer financing. There are often different interest rates available depending on the length of the contract. For example, at Castle Roofing Group, LLC, we offer 12 month no interest financing with payments, or a 103 month contract with 9.99% financing. We have up to 12 year financing available.
You should pay a roofer the full project amount after it is completed. However, a good roofing company will most often ask for a deposit of 15 to 35% of the total cost of the project after you have signed the roofing contract, and before they begin work on the roof. Never pay the entire roofing project amount upfront. Do not pay the deposit before signing a roofing contract. Likewise, if your insurance company will be covering the cost, only sign a roofing contract after your insurance company has approved the project. Otherwise, you can find yourself paying the entire project out of pocket.
