Whenever your roof sustains any form of damage, it’s vital that you call a roofer to repair it as soon as possible. Otherwise, you leave your home vulnerable to leaks and structural damage. However, you shouldn’t repair your roof on your own; you need to hire a roofing contractor. But what should you do if the contractor you hired doesn’t seem to be doing a good job of repairing your roof?
-
Poor Work Quality – Poor work quality on a roof repair project can do more harm than good for the roofing system. However, firing your roofer under this pretense isn’t simple. In fact, you need to prove that the work done was subpar and that the contractor didn’t perform the agreed upon work. This is why documenting the progress of the project from start to finish is important; if you have adequate proof that the roofer skimped out on work quality, you can fire roofers for not repairing your roof as well as they should have.
-
Lack of Licensing – If your contractor has repeatedly promised to show you their licenses, bonding and insurance paperwork, but haven’t, it’s possible that they’re deceiving you, and they don’t have the proper documents after all. This puts your home and household members at risk, so if your roofer can’t show the right documents, it’s best that you part ways. To prevent this from happening, make sure to conduct the right background checks on your potential roofers to determine if they really are the right person for the job.
-
Poor Communication Skills – On the other hand, if you find yourself having to constantly track down your roofer to ask questions and clarifications, this is a red flag of which you need to take note. If your roofer is notoriously difficult to work with and talk to, consider finding a new contractor.
-
Unprofessional Behavior – If the roofers or their crew is acting disrespectful toward you and your household members, fire them immediately as they aren’t contractors that you can trust to properly prepare and maintain your roof.
-
Constant Delays or Absences – Constant delays and absences on your roofer’s part can also delay your roofing project, which can wind up costing you more than you actually need to pay. With that in mind, if your contractors is always inconveniencing you with their delays and absences, consider firing them and finding a better contractor who can get the job done in a timely manner.
