Get Roof Wise

Do not be afraid to question everything, especially when salespersons become forceful or insistent about things the buyer has no way of knowing. For your own benefit and protection, take the time and put that roofer's claims in "dialog" with other roofers.

Watch out for roofers who attempt to win your confidence by selling you unneeded products or services in order to justify higher prices and/or disqualify "lesser" roofers who refuse to bandwagon such products or services.

A new roof is a huge expense. Get educated. Get the best deal. Make the best choice you can.

For example:
• Ask salespersons whether or not they think the roof will last as long as the manufacturer's warranty. Know what the real life of the shingle is. Test their integrity by assessing what they are leading you to believe concerning roof products.

• You may hear a roofing contractor say, "We never use OSB board, only CDX plywood!" Ask him why, and then make sure to ask other roofers what they think until you have enough information to assess who is the most knowledgeable and forthright contractor you're dealing with.
