For first-timers, a roof replacement might seem like a daunting task. Learning the basics, however, helps you prepare for what to expect and thus mitigate the stresses associated with it. A1 Roofing and Construction, the leading roofing contractor in the area, discusses what you should expect in any roof replacement project.
Who should you hire for your roof installation? Working with a licensed contractor ensures that your project will progress smoothly. The pros also know the trade well and can finish the job on time. Moreover, you’ll get the chance to pick from the variety of high-quality materials they offer which are otherwise unavailable at your local hardware dealer.
During the consultation, you and your roofer need to discuss all the details of the project, from the starting and end dates down to the roofing materials. Your contractor will hand over a roof estimate that spells out the specifics. Nonetheless, this document is different from the contract itself; it’s just a figure on which you can base your budget.
After signing the roofing contract, the next thing you have to do is to finish other paperwork, including the building permit. Prioritize this step to avoid conflict with your local construction inspector. That way, you can be reassured that your contractor complies with state-issued regulations regarding buildings and construction in your area.
The construction will begin once your roofers have secured your property. This typically proceeds like so: they will remove the old materials and repair roofing components before the new roof is installed. Once all issues have been accounted for, they will proceed with the actual installation, and then finally, clean as they finish.
