Here in the Triangle, you can expect to pay anywhere between $24,000 and $43,000 for a new roof. When you’re spending that much money on a home project, it’s critical to make sure you hire the right roofing contractor for the job. 

But, with so many contractors out there, how can you feel confident about making the right decision? We’re here to make it easier for you. Read on to learn tips on how to choose the right contractor for your roofing project. 

Make Sure They Offer High-Quality Materials

First things first, you should only work with a roofing contractor that offers top-of-the-line products. This helps give you peace of mind that your new roof will last, making your investment worth it. 

Here at Carolina Exteriors Plus, we proudly offer CertainTeed and Owens Corning, two of the most highly regarded asphalt shingle brands on the market. Both of these companies offer comprehensive roofing systems, with separate components that are designed to work together to offer the best possible protection for your home. Using components from the same manufacturer means that your roof will be built to last, making it a great investment for your home.

We’ve taken the time to do the research and narrow down our product selection to the best, so you don’t have to. That’s just a small part of how we make roofing projects easier for our customers. 

Read Through Customer Reviews

Another easy way to vet a roofing contractor is to get feedback from previous customers. After all, no one knows how a company operates better than the people they’ve worked with in the past. 

Take some time to read through customer reviews online and view any before and after galleries to get a better sense of what you can expect if you hire the team for your project too. Be sure to look at both positive and negative reviews. How a company responds to a bad review can say a lot about how they handle difficult situations. 

Look at Examples of Past Work

Beyond just reading customer reviews, it’s also important to see real-life examples of a company’s work before you make a final decision on who to hire. By looking at these portfolio pieces, you’ll have a better idea of whether the company offers what you’re looking for. And, most importantly, it will help you decide whether you like the end result. 

The Carolina Exteriors Plus team knows how important it is to showcase our work, which is why we frequently update our Featured Projects page. Here, you can see before and after photos and read through project details so you know exactly what kind of quality you can expect if you hire us for your roofing project. 

Ask About Warranties

Finally, before you decide which roofing contractor to hire, ask for information about available warranties. It’s important to hire a company that stands behind its work and that will make things right if an issue occurs. 

Here at Carolina Exteriors Plus, we proudly offer manufacturer warranties for Owens Corning, Certainteed, and other exterior remodeling products. If you use up to four components from the Owens Corning or Certainteed roofing systems, you can lock in your warranty, giving you peace of mind that your investment is protected.
