How to choose a roofer.
What to ask before you hire, from Rocky.
Roofers for asphalt, metal and flat roofs, hail repairs and full replacements. Use this checklist when you compare roofers, then ask Rocky if you want a second opinion.
- Ask whether the quote includes tear-off, underlayment, flashing and disposal.
- For hail claims, ask whether they work with your insurer's adjuster.
- Get at least two written quotes that list scope, materials, schedule and payment stages.
- Contractors who take money before the work is finished need an Alberta prepaid contracting licence. Ask for the number before you pay a deposit.
- Ask for a WCB Alberta clearance letter and proof of liability insurance.
- Read recent reviews and ask for references from jobs like yours.
