Are you getting a roof estimate? If roofing contractors or any company asks you to sign an agreement before they’ve given you a price for the job, it should send alarm bells ringing. Here’s why. Instead of quoting you fairly, they are waiting. Waiting for what? They are waiting to see what your insurance company is going to pay out first so they can get every last penny.
So, let’s say your insurance gives you $15,000 for a residential roofing job you could have gotten repaired for $12,000. The roofing contractor is getting $3,000 of your money. Getting upfront pricing from roofing contractors could help you avoid getting overcharged. Also, if you decide later, not to work with that roofing contractor, many times they’ll charge your 20 – 25% of the total claim. Once you’ve signed, you’re locked in.
So, never trust a roofing company that won’t give you an upfront price for roof replacement. At American Pride Roofing, we will always give you the best and most accurate pricing. And, if you call before 2 P.M. we will come out the same day to prepare your roof estimate.
Of course there are different kinds of roofs that may effect the pricing on your new roof estimate. If you are need of a few simple repairs or just need some emergency roofing for a storm damaged roof, give us a call.
