Most roofing contractors have your best interest in mind, but there are some who will unfortunately cut corners and not provide complete transparency about their prices or the quality of their products and work. A common tactic among unscrupulous roofers is offering a suspiciously low roofing bid–something that you should be extremely wary of. Today, the premier residential roofing company in the area, Royal Roofing Construction, shares why.
- The contractor may have underbid deliberately to get your attention. It’s understandable that homeowners want to get a good deal on their roofing project. This is what some contractors are banking on–which is why they’ll deliberately underestimate the labor costs to get the bid as low as possible. When a roofing bid is so low that it seems almost too good to be true, then it probably is, and you’ll likely end up with sloppy workmanship if you decide to go for it.
- The contractor may be using lower quality materials. There’s always a reason why a roofing bid is that low. It’s possible that the contractor is cutting corners on the project by picking off-brand products and materials. A roofing system built using low quality materials is going to be prone to problems and will need to be replaced much earlier than a higher-quality system. Always check which roofing brands your contractor represents to get a clearer idea about the quality of their materials. Royal Roofing Construction only uses top–tier options from trusted industry names GAF and CertainTeed.
- The contractor may not have the necessary roofing experience. Contractors with minimal experience usually try to drum up business by offering low roofing bids. Unfortunately, inexperienced contractors are more likely to make mistakes, which will end up costing you in the long run.
