Having work done on your home can be an intimidating concept – this is your sanctuary, and it is only natural that you want quality results. With so many horror stories across the internet, the challenge of finding a trustworthy, reliable roofer can be overwhelming -and that is why we have put together the ultimate guide to help you find an Auckland roofer you can rely on. Whether you are looking for a curved standing seam roof, or want to learn more about architectural metal roofing, read on for our top tips to find the perfect professional.
Ask For Personal Experiences
Your best resource for finding a reliable roofer may be closer than you think – the friends and family you see every day. Ask around to see if anyone has any experience with having a roof replaced or renovated, and see if they recommend a particular name. If this name crops up time and again, you may be on to a winner.
Get Several Quotes
It is also important not to hire the first contractor you talk to – take time to shop around and speak to a few options. This will give you a better idea of average prices for your job, reducing the risk that you will be ripped off, and also give you a good sense of the right person for the project.
Check Their History
Make sure that the roofer you opt for has a proven track record in your particular project – if you are looking for a curved standing seam roof, but the contractor has no experience in this area, it may be a good idea to choose someone with a stronger background.
You should also check that the contractor you choose is a Licenced Building Practitioner (LBP) – this is required by New Zealand law and will help to give you extra peace of mind and reassurance that the work will be done to the expected standard.
Double Check Any Paperwork
Finally, remember to double and triple check all paperwork and contracts before signing on the dotted line. Check that figures and scope of work are as agreed, and that any timelines are in writing.
