Get roofing quotes
Describe the job once. Roofers bid on it and you compare the replies, instead of sitting through four sales visits.
What happens when you submit
Local companies see your request and reply with quotes. You compare and pick, and nobody gets your number until you choose.
Heads up, we don't have companies taking these jobs yet, so this may not find a match.
What decides the price
Quotes for the same job can differ a lot, and it is usually scope rather than markup. These are the things that actually move the number.
- Roof pitch and how many storeys, which decide access and labour
- How many layers come off, and whether the decking underneath is sound
- Material, from three-tab shingles through architectural to metal
Have this ready
The difference between a real quote and a callback asking for measurements.
- Roof age
- Whether there is active leaking
- Whether you are claiming on insurance
Worth knowing
Decking damage is usually found after the tear-off. Ask what the price per sheet is before work starts, not after.
Before you sign anything
Get it in writing, check the license yourself rather than taking a number off a truck, and be wary of a price that expires today. North Carolina requires a general contractor license for most work over $30,000, and several trades are licensed by their own boards on top of that.
