Even with a good warranty or a quality guarantee, getting your roofing project done right the first time can save you from do-overs and other problems down the road. Today, we share tips that can help ensure the success of your roofing project.
The scope of your project will cover everything that needs to be done to your roof, and understanding it can help you create a more detailed plan. Being able to explain exactly what you want to a roofer will help the latter create a more accurate estimate of the project cost and timeline.
All types of building and renovation work must adhere to international and local building codes. Not doing so would make the building unsuitable – even unsafe – for occupancy, and you may end up compelled to do the roof over at your own cost. If you ever needed only one reason to work with licensed roofing contractors, it’s the assurance that they will adhere to building codes. This is important when you’re restoring a very old roof as it would not have been compliant with modern building codes.
A good roofing contractor will have the roof thoroughly inspected after the roofing work is completed, in some cases twice over by an independent inspector. However, it doesn’t hurt to have a second (or third) set of eyes inspecting the finished work. After all, you’re the homeowner who will be signing off on it, so it only follows that the roof is exactly what you have discussed with your roofer. During initial discussions with your roofing contractor, it may be helpful to ask if their quality guarantee includes correcting installation mistakes.
