When requesting a list of references from a roofing contractor, make sure you get all the information you need.

Most importantly, you should specifically ask for a list of the company’s 10 most recent customers. That way, they won’t only give you the names of customers whom they know were satisfied.

Here are some questions to ask a roofing company’s references:

  • Were you satisfied with the roof installation and the customer service from the company?
  • What was the type and scope of job they did for you (reroofing/roof replacement, roof repair, roof weatherproofing, roof leak repairs, etc.)?
  • Did the contractor complete the work on time?
  • Did the contractor keep you up-to-date on the status of the project?
  • Were there unexpected costs? If so, what were they for and were they avoidable?
  • If you live in a smaller town, did the roofers charge extra to travel to your home?
  • Did the technicians show up on time?
  • Did the employees clean up after finishing the installation?
  • If you need a new roof or roof repairs in the future, would you use this contractor again?
  • Would you recommend them to friends or family?
  • Can I visit your home to see the completed roof installation or roof repairs?
