+
Have safety precautions in place when going on your roof. It is possible to fall, particularly if you haven't been on the roof very often, resulting in very severe injury.
-
Don't try to fix a leaking roof, for instance, while it is still storming outside. This is very dangerous. Get a bucket to catch the water from the leak until things start to clear up and then you should check on your roof.
+
You should choose materials used for your roof in relation of the weather. Clay roofing is a great material if the area that you live in has a dry climate; it can help maintain a comfortable temperature inside the house. Clay tiles applied in damper climates can cause rapid deterioration. If you don't know, ask.
-
When your roof leaks during a rainy spell, note the place where water is coming in. When dry conditions return, go up on the roof, find the damaged spot, and repair it. Don't jeopardize your safety by going up on a wet roof. You will need good, dry conditions to find the damage and repair it properly. You will be safer if you wait until the roof dries to fix it.
+
It is important that you check the references of any contractor you hire. Follow up on the references, calling previous clients to find out if they are satisfied with the work. Take a drive to the homes, if possible. Drive by the houses your contractor worked at and pay attention to their roofs.
-
Never hesitate if your shingles need to be replaced. Neglecting small issues can spiral into bigger issues down the road. You should fix or replace weak shingles as soon as possible to prevent leaks from appearing. If you take care of your roof, it will take care of you.
+
Get contractor referrals from loved ones. If any of them have done business with this contractor, they can let you know how pleased they were with his overall work. Inquire about how well the yard was cleaned up and what type of guarantee they received as well.
-
Turn down offers made using pressure tactics. Roofers who try to sell their product this way are not people you want to deal with. These types of people are difficult to deal with, so it's best to end any relationship before it begins.
+
If you've already tried to get someone to come out to fix your roof but they won't be there for a while, then you should do what you can to fix the leak temporarily. You can nail heavy plastic to damaged areas. It is not a lasting fix for the leaks, but it'll provide your home with some protection until the proper repairs can be made.
-
If the contractor does not require you to pay up front in full, do not do it. You may have to pay around 25% of the amount to get the job started, but try not to pay more than that. It would be horrible if they did bad work or didn't do everything you thought they would.
+
Insurance is a must when it comes to roofing. A contractor without insurance can be very dangerous. That's because if he causes further damage to your roof or gets injured on the job, you will be liable for the expenses. Ask if the roofer has insurance in place, and make sure you see written documentation that it is current and sufficient in amount.

You want to be offered 3-5 years of coverage. It must cover workmanship and defective supplies, and they should also give you photocopies of manufacturer warranties too.
+
The roofing contractor that you hire needs to be completely current with all of their credentials. Nearly every state insists that roofers be properly licensed, so inspect your contractor's paperwork to ensure that they are fully compliant. Also, be sure they are currently holding good liability insurance and a worker's compensation certificate.
-
As you narrow down the field of possible roofing contractors to hire, make sure that you learn about each one's warranty offers. The warranty should last at least three years. The longer it lasts, the better. You'll want a warranty that'll cover things such as issues with the materials or workmanship. You'll also want a copy of the manufacturer's warranties.

When you are looking for a contractor, look for how long they've been established. A new company is not necessarily bad, but a company with a long history of happy customers is your best and safest bet. A company that hasn't been in operation for too long may very well be run by scammers who will take your money and run.
