3 Things Your Roofer Wishes You Knew About Their Work

Home improvement projects are a two-way street. Roofing upgrades, in particular, need clear, constant communication between you and your roofer. While there are things you want your contractor to know about yourself and what you want to get out of your upgrade, they also have things they’d like you to know about themselves and their work. This can help in streamlining the process and ensuring you get the best results for your investment. 

US Roofing, the leading contractor for sloped and flat roof roof replacements, shares three things roofers wish every homeowner knew.

They Want to Work With Clients They Trust and Vice Versa

Roofers will choose the people they want on their team. That said, they also want clients to trust them and communicate with them clearly when it comes to specific details, most importantly project costs and contract changes. Good roofers know that cheaper materials aren’t always the best options, and will recommend better options that suit your needs. They might also recommend changes to the plans mid-project to address problems that didn’t show up before.

Local Permits Can be Difficult to Acquire

Some clients tend to get disappointed when there are unprojected delays. Sometimes, the issue isn’t a lack of skill or professionalism; it could also be a permitting issue. A reputable roof storm damage contractor will do their best to establish a relationship with the local permit office. The years of relationship-building roofers go through results in getting permits approved faster and easier.

Certifications are Important

Reputable contractors invest their time getting certified by the industry’s largest manufacturers, such as GAF® and CertainTeed. This allows them to offer high-quality products and warranties, as well as know the best practices that will benefit their customers.

US Roofing is the leading roofing contractor in the region for more than 40 years. Local homeowners know they can count on us for all of their roofing needs. As a certified GAF Master Elite® and CertainTeed Master Shingle Applicator™, we offer only the best materials and workmanship for our roof inspections, repairs, and replacement services.
