Three Questions EVERY Jacksonville, FL
Roofer Should Be Able To Answer
And If They Can’t – You Should Call
Universal Roof & Contracting
If you’re searching for a roof replacement contractor in Central Florida or Jacksonville, you’re likely going to ask questions.
And really, you should.
You’re making a significant decision for your home, and it’s essential to be as informed as possible.
When you’re talking with your potential roofers, there are questions they should be able to answer, and if they can’t, perhaps they aren’t the right roofers for you.
Luckily, you can always call Universal Roof and Contracting. We offer exceptional roof replacement services throughout our Central Florida and Jacksonville communities. And like us, any roofing company you choose should be honest, upfront, and prioritize YOU.
Question #1: What’s Wrong With My Roof?
While there are a variety of reasons you’d call a local roofing company, typically, the most crucial reason is that something has gone wrong.
It could be any number of things, including:
- Leaking roof
- Poor ventilation
- Missing or damaged shingles
Whatever the reason, you need a roofing contractor who can uncover the issue and provide an effective solution.
If a roofing contractor visits your home and is evasive or doesn’t give you the complete picture of what’s wrong with your roof, there’s likely a reason.
Sure, they could lack experience.
Or, it may be because they’re attempting to take advantage of the situation. The less you know or understand about what’s going on with your roof, the easier it is for them to talk you into a roof replacement when a roof repair may be what you need.
With Universal Roof and Contracting, we’ll ALWAYS be upfront and honest with you.
Our roof inspections are meant to put you in the best position to make an informed decision about your home.
We’re not there to pressure you.
We’re not there to take advantage of you.
We’re there to help.
Question #2: What Does Your Warranty Cover?
A warranty is your guarantee for the services received. It’s your peace of mind. It protects you, and you’ll likely have more than one.
There will be manufacturers’ warranties covering specific products, such as asphalt shingles. Then, if your roofers are operating with integrity as they should be, you’ll have a warranty covering the workmanship, too.
Now, warranties can overlap, and some warranties for contractors are tied to the product manufacturer to further strengthen them. This also often requires the roofing company to have specific certifications with the manufacturer.
It’s a win-win for everyone.
However, regardless of the specific warranty details, during your roof inspection, the representative should be able to provide you with this information.
If not, it may not cover much. Or, it may contain multiple loopholes that allow them to cover only specific parts of your roof replacement.
Like with Universal Roofing and Contracting, your roofers should be able to clearly state what’s in your warranty, its duration, and the key details you need to understand.
At Universal Roof, we can, and we do. It’s just how we operate.
Question #3: Are Your Roofing Shingles Dependable?
The product you’re purchasing is just as important as the installation itself. The best installation crew in the world can only do so much with a low-quality product. It’s only going to last for so long and perform only so well.
One thing is sure, though. Your roofing company should be able to assure you of the quality of the roofing shingles you’re purchasing.
If they can’t, there’s a problem.
At Universal Roof and Contracting, being dependable roofers and standing behind our work also means standing behind the products we install. Therefore, we REFUSE to offer you products and materials that we wouldn’t accept being installed in our own homes.
Trust is a lot to ask, but when you operate ethically and in the best interests of your community, you leave no doubt.
And we don’t.
So, if you need a roof replacement or other roofing services in Central Florida or Jacksonville and are looking for a trustworthy roofing contractor, contact Universal Roof and Contracting to schedule a free roof inspection.
