Top 5 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Roofing Contractor
Your roof is one of the most important investments in your home—it protects your family, your belongings, and your property’s value. But when it comes time for a repair or replacement, choosing the right roofing contractor can feel overwhelming. With so many options out there, how do you know who to trust?
The answer lies in asking the right questions. Here are the top five questions every homeowner should ask before hiring a roofing contractor—and how Rhino Roofing measures up.
1. Are You Licensed and Insured?
A reputable roofing contractor should carry the proper licenses and insurance to protect both you and their team. This includes workers’ compensation and liability insurance. If a contractor can’t provide proof, it’s a red flag.
✅ At Rhino Roofing, we’re fully licensed and insured so our customers never have to worry.
2. What Warranties Do You Offer?
Not all warranties are created equal. Some cover only materials, while others include workmanship. A strong warranty shows that the company stands behind their work.
✅ We offer warranties, giving you peace of mind long after the job is complete.
3. Can You Provide Local References?
A trustworthy contractor will have a list of satisfied customers in your area who can vouch for their work. Ask for references or check online reviews to see what others are saying.
✅ Rhino Roofing is proud of the reputation we’ve built in the community—we’re happy to share references and reviews so you can hear directly from your neighbors.
4. What Is Your Experience with My Type of Roof?
Different roofing materials require different skills. Whether you have asphalt shingles, tile, or metal, your contractor should be experienced with the material you need.
✅ Our team has years of hands-on experience across a wide range of roofing systems, making us well-equipped to handle any project.
5. Do You Provide a Detailed Written Estimate?
Transparency is key. A professional contractor should provide a written estimate that breaks down labor, materials, and other costs. This helps avoid surprise charges later.
✅ At Rhino Roofing, we provide clear, detailed estimates so you know exactly what to expect.
