Not all roofing professionals are created equal. If you take a closer look at the services offered by any contractor, you'll get to know the exact specializations that separate them from other contractors. There are roofing contractors, roof inspectors, roofers, and so on. While it's true that some professionals specialize in more than one area, their specific roles and core skills separate them from other roofing professionals.

Well-established roofing contractors manage a team of all these experts, specializing in different areas, to provide end-to-end roofing services to their clients - right from initial planning to roof installation and beyond. 

Roofing contractors are essentially construction experts whose jobs consist of not only overseeing the work being done on the roofs, but they also take care of things like obtaining permits, conducting inspections, and making insurance claims, among others. Let's look at some of the important services offered by a roofing contractor. 

1. Roof Consulting Services

Some contractors may not offer roofing inspection services, but almost all of them can determine the needs of a roofing project and giving you a nearly accurate estimate. A typical roofing project starts with a consultation. During this consultation phase, professionals will carefully assess your needs; determine the scope of the project including timeline, cost, and materials, among others. Once they have done the preliminary assessment, an estimate will be prepared so that you'll get an idea of the total cost of your roof installation project.

2. Project Assessment

Once your roofing contractor has determined the scope of the project, the next thing they will do is project assessment. By assessing the nature and type of your project and what it requires in terms of materials, equipment, labor, and manpower, they will be able to provide you with many project details including the work schedule and the needed timeline for optimum results. This step makes the planning of different phases easy and hassle-free and appropriate crews can be assigned to start the work. 

3. Project Management

There may be many types of professionals required for the successful completion of your project. These include laborers who will remove the existing roof and dispose of it safely and roofing experts who will install the new roofing system. Furthermore, you'll also need the right supplies and timely delivery of your roofing products to enable these professionals to work on your project without wasting time.

Your roofing contractor will manage every detail of your project and make sure to resolve any issues should they arise. A roofing contractor serves as a project manager of your roofing project. They do all the planning and manage every detail of the roof installation process, right from obtaining materials to allotting the right professionals.

4. Obtaining Permits and Performing Inspections

If you hire a trusted and experienced roofing contractor, you don't need to worry about obtaining permits or even contacting local authorities for approval of your project. Any well-established roofing contractor can professionally manage all these aspects of the project for you. Furthermore, even after your roof has been successfully installed, you can rely on your roofing contractor to ensure it is inspected and cleared by the appropriate authorities.

5. Roof Installation

The final and most important step of the process is the actual installation of the roof. Our skilled and qualified roofers will make sure that your roofing installation is completed to industry standards using the highest quality materials and superior workmanship. The contractor will make sure that the roof is installed to meet and exceed the expectations of their client and that the homeowner is fully satisfied with their brand-new roof.
