How To Choose A Commercial Roofing Contractor You Can Trust

The contractor you choose matters more than the product you buy. A premium coating installed badly will fail; a mid-range system installed correctly will outlive its warranty.

Five checks before you sign

1. **Licensing and insurance.** Ask for certificates naming your building. 2. **Manufacturer certification.** Only certified applicators can issue a full system warranty. 3. **Warranty terms.** Understand what is covered: material only, or material and labor. 4. **Safety record.** Request the EMR rating. 5. **Local references.** Ask for three commercial jobs completed in the past two years.
