There’s no doubt that there will be many residential roofing contractors who will bid to work on your new roofing project. If you take a closer look at their proposals, however, you will see that the estimates may vary, not only in the final cost but the contents themselves.
Creative Construction Group shares which details should be included in your roofing estimate.
Project Details
Project details such as the contractor’s responsibility, estimated work calendar and payment terms, should be spelled out in your contractor’s estimate. These details give a clear-cut picture of what will happen during a project. Having your contractor list down each item’s description also helps you understand what they will and will not do.
Total Billing Costs
A roofing installation project is a huge investment . By having a detailed list of all the costs of the materials and services your contractor will be rendering, you can anticipate if the cost fits your budget. Having the cost estimated upfront also allows you to prioritize which service or materials are essential and which you can live without.
A Lien Release
Ensure yourself during the project by asking to have a lien release waiver attached to your contractor’s estimates. A lien release helps you guarantee that the subcontractors (if any) your contractor have utilized to work on your project have been paid in full and waive their right to put a lien on your property.
Guarantees and Expectation
Ask your residential roofing company to lay out what they can guarantee. Guarantees on materials, service and even post-project cleanup are important, so have them spell these out in clear, concise language.
