The home remodeling industry is unknown territory for many homeowners. During a roofing project, your contractor may use industry jargon, which can make things even more confusing. If you’re inexperienced at tackling roofing projects, don’t worry; a good roofing contract is the best tool you have for protecting your investment. Today, Integrity Roofing and Siding, the leading roofing contractor, shares the essentials you should look for in your contract:
Complete Job Description
A good contract clearly describes the scope of the project. This is to ensure that both you and your contractor are on the same page at all times. Make sure that the start and completion dates are indicated. Any unnecessary delays should be dealt with according to your agreement with your contractor.
In addition, the payment and completion dates should be tied together. Some roofers may ask for the full payment upfront and then deliver low-quality services. By withholding the final payment until the roofing work is done to your satisfaction, you can avoid this risk.
Outline of Costs and Materials
An itemized list of all the expenses associated with your project should also be included in the contract. This includes materials, costs and other expenses. If there are specific materials, colors, brands or items that you want, these need to be indicated in the contract.
Local Authorization
Home improvement projects often require specific permits before construction can begin. Many homeowners are unaware of which permits are needed, which can cause delays. When you work with an expert like Integrity Roofing and Siding, you won’t have to worry about local authorization. We will handle the regulatory permits and licenses needed to ensure the project proceeds smoothly (and legally).
