Contractor Selection
RoofSource is the best partner for building owners and property managers seeking to hire a contractor for roof installation, repair, restoration, or replacement.
If you have a building in need of roofing services and you’re feeling overwhelmed with the process of sourcing and comparing quotes, RoofSource can help. As a roofing products manufacturer representative,We work with you to develop a four-step bidding process that defines your scope of work and specifications, then secure competitive bids from reputable contractors in our network who can be relied upon to do the job right. We take the stress out of the contractor selection process so you can focus on more important things.
Top Challenges of Selecting a Contractor
For building owners and managers in need of roofing services, the process of choosing a contractor can be both overwhelming and confusing. Here’s why:
- Each bidding contractor may have a different opinion on the scope of work. One contractor may propose a simple roof coating; a second may propose a roof overlay. A third may tell you the whole roof needs to be torn out and replaced– all at wildly differing price points.
- Contractors tend to bias their bids toward their own areas of expertise. A roof coating specialist might steer you toward an elastomeric roof coating, while another who prefers installing new roofs may tell you they can’t restore.
- Contractors may receive kickbacks for using certain products. They may work these products into their bid even though those products might not be the best choice for your roof.
RoofSource mitigates these risks by working with you to determine your roofing needs apart from any bias, preparing a scope of work and specifications for roofing products, then sourcing the project to trusted contractors who bid competitively on the established scope of work and specifications. This greatly simplifies the selection process because you’re receiving bids based on predetermined parameters.
