In our first series, we will be discussing what it means to pay attention to the details on roofing projects. Since your roof protects everything below it (in the home), that makes a good, well researched decision on a new roof vital to its performance and ultimately how it is installed on the home. In this first article, we'll focus on picking a roofing company.
If Cost is the Biggest Factor, You Will Get What You Pay For
Did you know, that 2 out of 3 times when a roof leak occurs it is the fault of the installer? Or that the average roofing company in this country goes out of business within 5 years? How about that the roofing industry is the most inquired and complained about business category in Better Business Bureau's 3,000+ listings?
Considerations for Picking the Right Roofing Company to Work With
When researching a roofing company, it is critical to determine their credentials, time in the business, if properly licensed, bond capability (insurance), reviews, BBB rating, and compliance with the State of Kansas Attorney General’s office.
