HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT’S TIME TO REPLACE YOUR ROOF?
The decision to replace your roof is never an easy one. If you decide that you need a new roof, it will require a significant amount of time, money, and effort. In most cases, you can’t just decide in a board meeting that you want a new roof, call a contractor, and have a crew on your roof the next day. Choosing to replace your roof means you’ll have architect meetings, proposals, bid drafts, pre-bid meetings, and many other steps. The key to making this often-difficult process as easy as possible is partnering with a great contractor. If you partner with a great contractor, they will help streamline the process and guide you along the way. They have the experience and they should use it to help you. But, even with a great commercial roofing contractor, you still have to decide that you want to replace your roof. How do you need if it’s time?
