There are some similarities between commercial and residential roofing. However, for the most part, they are quite different. Occasionally, a commercial roofing project may be on a home property, but in general, commercial properties are far different from residential homes. Commercial roofing requires advanced knowledge and unique tools and materials. In Boca Raton, FL, commercial roofs need to be built to last decades of harsh weather, with lots of rain, hurricanes, and non-stop blistering heat.
What you can expect with the Commercial Roofers we work with:
Is the company adequately staffed for the job?
This is something that is never really considered, but it should be. Small companies with limited staff can end up in over their heads with commercial roofing work. It can end up meaning the projects get delayed, and if this is a property such as an apartment complex, it can put the property managers in quite a bind.
Does the company maintain both a roofing license and a general contractor's license?
While technically, only a roofing license is needed, it is very valuable to have a GC license. Many commercial roofing projects will also demand that other areas of the property need work, too, areas that are not covered to be worked on by a roofing license alone. In such situations, it's much better if one company can handle all repair and construction work. This can help save both money and time on the project.
Have they worked on similar jobs?
They should hold a portfolio with many commercial jobs in it. If the company doesn't have experience working on commercial roofs in a similar situation to yours, it may be best to continue your search. You don't want your project to be a learning curve for an inexperienced company.
Do they have a good reputation?
It's obvious not to work with a company that has a bad reputation. But you may be surprised how often people do not research the company they plan on working with first. It'sIt's easy to do, check the internet, see if they have good Google reviews, or Yelp and ensure they are in good standing with the BBB.
Does the bid look suspicious?
Underbidding is often a sign of desperation to land a job. A tactic is often used by new and inexperienced commercial roofers looking to build their work portfolio. It is always alluring to get the best possible deal. However, if problems arise and they are under budget, corners may be cut! Ask yourself if you want corners cut on your commercial roofing project?
