Ten Tips for Hiring a Better Cincinnati Roofing Company

Ten Tips for Hiring a Better Cincinnati Roofing Company

When it comes to preparing to repair or replace your roof, nothing is more important than choosing a quality Cincinnati roofing company. It can be overwhelming trying to make a selection, so here are our top ten tips for hiring a better Cincinnati roofing company

  1. Compare different companies
    Don’t choose the first roofing company that comes up in your search, take the time to research several different companies and make sure they are qualified to complete the work.

  2. Make sure they provide a free estimate
    Any roofing company worth their salt will offer to come out to your home and provide you with a free estimate. If they require payment for an estimate, it’s time to walk away.

  3. Ask for references, and check them
    A reputable roofing company should be able to provide you with at least five references. Take the time to call them and ask about their experience, this will give you a good idea of how the company conducts business as well as the quality of their work.

  4. Look for stability and longevity
    Choosing a roofing company that’s been around for 20, 30, 40 years is a good indicator that they’re good at what they do and have a proven track record of success to have been in business for so long. There’s also less chances of the company going under, so they’ll still be there in the event you need repairs or additional work done.

  5. Go with local if you can
    If given the choice between a national roofing company and a locally-owned business, go local if you can. Small business owners typically are easier to get a hold of and work hard to maintain a good reputation in their community.

  6. Be aware of warranties
    A roofing company with integrity will stand behind their work. Keep an eye out for warranties when choosing a company to work on your roof.

  7. Check for insurance
    Any roofing company should be insured and carry workers compensation for their employees, this frees you from any liability if a disaster happens.

  8. Get everything in writing
    Before any work begins, make sure you have a written contract between yourself and the roofing company. If a company refuses to sign a contract, run away fast – this is a huge red flag. A contract will make sure everyone’s on the same page as far as expectations go and will help prevent frustration and miscommunication down the road.

  9. Get recommendations from family and friends
    Within your circle of family and friends, there has to be someone you know who has had their roof replaced. Ask them if they know the names of any roofing contractors and what their experiences was like.

  10. Take a look at their Better Business Bureau profile 
    It’s always a good idea to take a look at a businesses’ BBB profile before making a decision. Check to make sure they don’t have any major complaints against them and get a feel for overall customer satisfaction
