FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge $1.90 a square foot for 25 year 3 tab shingles $2.00 for architectural lifetime shingles. I do have to charge more for steep roofs. Metal, Tile, Slate, & Rubber Roofs. Depend on the roof style and color if any.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First to explain in layman terms everything thing I can do to insure. The customer knows the years certain materials last . And every thing from replacing pipe collars to installing Ridge Vents (I recommend putting Ridge vents on every new roof. ). And if I see something special or different that needs to be done. I tell the customer. And weather I do the job or you heir another roofer. Insist on the special thing's I pointed out. Included in the contract . If they try and say it's not necessary. Their probably not the one for the job. If anyone needs money down to start your job. offer to write a check to the roofing supply company. Never write a check to the Roofer till the job is done.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Over the years, I've had hands on training GAF Shingle and Rubber roofing materials. I was trained to install Tile and Metal roofs. But my best education is the 23 years I've spent tearing off and replacing roofs. And the difference between me and other roofers with this much experience. is I'm on every Job I contract. Not sitting behind a desk. That's why I've had very few call backs. And any roofing Contractor that says they've never had to go back to a job. well you know. lol
