When they are in the process on hiring a professional roofer, one of people`s main questions is “How can I be sure that I deal with a trustworthy contractor?”. Well, one way is to examine a roofer`s credentials. If it cannot prove that it has them, you should not consider that company among your bids.

The right credentials include:

State Credentials

A trustworthy roofer is always licensed. License is a mandatory credential that comes from a state agency.

Roofing Sector Credentials

These are known as certifications and they are offered by reputable manufacturers of materials and roofing systems as a recognition sign for some roofers that have the expertise and the commitment to quality work, according to their standards.

Insurance

A roofer must have at least liability insurance and worker`s comp. Experience with assisting clients with insurance claims is also a pro.

The ability to offer warranties

A roof project can be a big investment and it is very important to be accompanied by adequate warranties. A licensed and insured Centennial roofing company will stand behind their work by offering warranties on the roofing work they perform. Basic warranties cover defects or workmanship issues, but there are also roofing companies that are backed by material manufacturers and are able to offer extended warranties.
