What to ask before you hire

About Holman and Nachtwey Company

  • Ask what the warranty covers and for how long, in writing.
  • Check each certification on the maker's or group's own website. Contractors must renew them.
  • Search their name on the Better Business Bureau site, and read their reviews.

Worth asking any roofing contractor

  • Can you show me proof of liability insurance and your bond?
  • Will you tear off the old roof or lay the new one over it?
  • What do you charge to replace rotted roof boards, per sheet, if you find any?
  • Who pulls the permit, and who meets the inspector?
