What to Look for When Hiring a Roofing Contractor in Nebraska

Nebraska weather has many challenging aspects to roofs from hail to heat to winter freeze and thaw cycles. So, when it’s time to find a roofing contractor to help you fix your roof, you want to make a decision that is comfortable, allows for curb appeal and will keep value for years to come. Where’s what to look for when hiring a roofing contractor in Nebraska.

• Verify any basics that they should have from licensing to registration to insurance. A physical address you can visit with ratings from Google and the better business bureau.
• Ask for examples of their work, something you can drive by and view. Look for similarities in materials and pitch of roof. If the project is complete, how does the clean-up look?
• Installing a roof, has a set system in place and you want to make sure the system they use meets industry standard from decking inspection to ice and water shields, synthetic underlayment with moisture protection, flashing, ventilation and final materials and clean up.
• When you are hiring a roofing contractor in Nebraska, it’s important to identify if you need a replacement or repair. A quality roofing contractor will be able to tell you if you need a replacement or repair based on the code and manufacturer guidelines. It’s ok to ask for a side-by-side comparison of both options as transparency builds trust.
• Make sure to get more than one estimate so you can compare prices and materials. Go over each bid to make sure that you are comparing the same materials used, warranties are included and everything is hauled away. If the hard costs for materials are all the same it makes choosing a roofing contractor easier.
