Common questions include shingle condition, underlayment, ventilation, flashing and how damaged areas integrate with existing materials. Ask what products and repair options are available for your roof.
Roof Types & Materials
Material, slope and existing construction shape the right questions for any roofing project.
Tile roofs have visible tile and underlying components. Ask how broken tiles, flashing and the underlayment will be assessed, and whether matching material is available.
Panel seams, fasteners, penetrations and transitions matter. Discuss the roof profile, coatings, attachment details and whether the existing system is compatible with the proposed work.
Drainage, seams, penetrations and ponding areas deserve attention. Ask which membrane or coating system is proposed and what preparation the written scope includes.
Age, weathering, ventilation and local requirements can affect repair or replacement decisions. Confirm suitable options and any applicable code requirements for the property.
Every roof is different. Share photos from a safe location and ask the contractor to identify the roof assembly, its limitations and available next steps.
