Fenton Michigan Roofing Estimate
Knowing What to Expect in a Fenton, Michigan Roof Estimate
If you've thought about repairing or replacing your roof, you've probably already done some initial shopping around. This experience can be overwhelming, especially when roofing companies start throwing estimates your way. Knowing what to expect in your estimate can help you quickly identify your preferred Fenton Michigan roofing company, allowing you to spend less time searching and more time doing.
To simplify your job, a roofing estimate should specify and include a line-item list of costs associated with each repair. Typically, this should include both the cost of the material, as well as the labor it takes to install the material. This way, you can compare costs for the materials and labor for each activity.
Things You Should Look for in a Fenton Michigan Roofing Estimate
At Herbert Roofing, we like to be as transparent and upfront with our roofing costs. When comparing several estimates, make sure you look for the following things in the paperwork.:
- Roofing Layers – Firstly, make sure your estimate indicates state how many layers will be removed from your old roof. Each layer costs to remove and removing additional roofing layers outside of the estimate will drive up the final roofing replacement price.
- Property Protection – Secondly, your estimate should include a line-item on property protection, what the roofing company will use, and what exactly will be covered. It’s important to make sure the items in your home and attic are covered in case of roofing failure.
- Installation Method – Thirdly, if your roofing estimate includes the numbers of nails that will be used and the associated costs, you can safely assume the hand nailing method will be used. If this is not the case, ask your roofing company or contractor about the air nailing method and if this is their preferred installation method.
- Roof System Components – Fourthly, the five main components of a roofing system include the underlayment, ice and water shield, starter shingles, shingles, and ridge capping. If your estimate involves a roofing replacement, the documentation should list all five of these roofing components as line items.
- Dump Fees & Clean Up – Finally, there tends to be a lot of roofing debris that results from the tear-down process. In addition to the materials and labor costs, check for dump and clean up fees. Otherwise, you will be charged an additional fee at the end of the roofing replacement to get rid of any leftover roofing materials on your property.
Check for a Description of the Roofing Warranty
Unfortunately, roofing materials occasionally fail. A comprehensive warranty will cover any roofing mishaps or failures, so you don’t have to pay out of pocket. The estimate provided by a roofing company or contractor should include this information. Herbert Roofing is excited to offer expanded warranties, providing you with a better experience and roofing coverage.
