How to Choose an Emergency Roofing Contractor

After a storm, you may need a roofer quickly. These questions help you choose with a clear head.

Look for Clear Communication

A good contractor answers the phone, explains what they will do and gives you a written scope. They show photos of the damage and the work.

Be careful with anyone who pressures you to sign right away.

Ask About the Plan

Ask what the temporary protection will be, what the permanent repair involves and how long each step is likely to take.

Ask who will be on your roof and who will answer your questions.

Check the Basics

Ask for references or photos of similar work, and look for a local address and phone number. Ask what happens if more damage is found.

Take your time within the limits of the weather.
