What is Included in a Roofing Estimate?
If you have gone through the process of getting your roof replaced, you’ll know it was not an entirely easy process. The most important part of getting a roof replaced is by shopping for a roofing contractor that you, and the local community, can trust. This is where a roofing estimate comes in. A roofing estimate documents everything about the roof replacement project and here are some details it may contain:
Roofing Estimate Information
-
- Company Information and Project Timeline – contact information such as phone numbers and email addresses are included for you to reach a person who can answer all of your questions. It also includes an outline of estimated start and completion dates, payment terms, and a basic outline of who is responsible for each aspect.
- Licenses and Insurance Proofs – A reputable roofing contractor will always provide proof of license and insurance. If they don’t have proof, it is important to verify this information with your state’s licensing board as it will protect you if the contractor fails to complete the job. Every state has a different requirement for licenses and insurance so be sure to double-check.
- Itemized Costs – Some estimates don’t include itemized costs associated with the project, but you can ask for the costs of labor, permits, materials, and the cleanup of debris. Make sure you are not left in the dark or have surprise costs sprung at you. Be sure to ask about every cost and how it affects the project overall.
