Required License and Insurance
Before finalizing the agreement and bringing aboard a roofing contractor for your commercial enterprise, it’s essential to verify that the company possesses all the necessary licenses and insurance. Conduct some preliminary research to familiarize yourself with the prerequisites. A reliable contractor will willingly provide the requested information. If they cannot furnish the necessary details or seem hesitant about your inquiry, it might be wise to consider exploring other contractor options.

Ask for Referrals
Another topic to discuss with a potential contractor is inquiring about those they have already done work for. Ask for several names and/or addresses so you can speak with the owners, or look at the completed work. If you do speak with some former customers, here are some questions you can ask to begin the conversation:
- Did Company X show up on time?
- Did Company X clean up when they were done?
- Did Company X provide you with a written bid and estimate?
- How did Company X want to be paid?
- Would you hire Company X again in the future?
Many times references won’t hold anything back when asked for their opinion. They will most likely give you the good and the bad reviews and you can then base your decision on their viewpoints and experience.

Verify Experience
There is some credit to helping a new company get off the ground floor and begin its business, but are you sure you trust a novice contractor with your roof? Perhaps it would be best to help a new business with lawn care or help a family at the local farmers market. But your roof is vitally important to the success of your business!
Here are some things you should hire the commercial roofing contractor to inspect and repair:
- If you are a restaurant owner, ensure any leaks are quickly sealed up. No one likes a leaky roof over the buffet table!
- Do you own an apartment building? The residents desire a safe environment for their families, and they are paying rent to ensure you keep them and their possessions safe.
- A small retail store can lose its livelihood if the roofing system collapses all over its goods, so have regular inspections to secure the roofing system
- No one desires to attend church and be dripped upon during the sermon due to a faulty roof.
