Before you hire
Put it in a written contract: the work, price, deposit, start and finish dates, warranty, permits and clean-up. Paying cash to skip it leaves you no recourse.
Ask about liability insurance and workers’ compensation cover before anyone works on your roof or property.
Get written quotes from at least three contractors for the same work, and check references from recent clients.
