3 Questions to Ask Your Roofer Before a Roof Replacement

Roof replacement is a complex process, which is why you need to cover all bases to ensure its success. One of them involves finding a reliable roofing company to get the job done to your requirements. Before the actual installation starts, make sure you ask the important questions to minimize issues that might arise along the way. 

1. Is staying away from home during a roof replacement necessary? Staying somewhere else while the roofing project is underway isn’t always necessary. However, if you are doing work at home, the noise and mess can be a disruption. You may decide to stay away for a while until the project is completed. If that’s not feasible, consider taking a leave so you can check the project’s progress while at home.

2. How long will it take for you to finish the roofing project? Roof repair can take a day to complete, but a replacement is usually done within a week barring unexpected circumstances. The timeframe will depend on the size of your home, the weather forecast on the day of installation, or the need to address unforeseen issues on the roof structure.

3. How much will the roofing project cost? The exact cost of your roof replacement project will depend on several factors. These include your choice of roofing material, the labor involved, fees for the disposal of the old roofing materials and any hidden damage that requires immediate attention. Before you sign the contract with your chosen roofer, make sure that your estimate contains all the necessary information regarding your project.
