4 Questions to Ask Your General Contractor

Whether you’re in need of roof replacement or a new deck, it’s important that you work with an experienced contractor to ensure the success of your project. With this in mind, you need to be picky with your choice and ask a few questions to help you narrow down your choices.

We list four questions you should always ask your general contractor:

1. What Types of Roof Do You Have Available?

Always ask first what kind of roofing systems your prospective general contractor has. Not all roofs are made the same after all and your home may require a certain kind of roofing material when you take into account the climate in your area.

Home Pro Exteriors Inc. is a roofing contractor certified by GAF. We’ll always supply you with the best roofing materials and systems engineered for long-term performance and maximum security.

2. Do You Offer Window Services?

Your general contractor should also be able to offer you complete window services. Just like the roof, these play a key role in naturally ventilating and insulating your home. Your prospective roofer should be able to offer you the most energy-efficient windows for your home.

We offer expert window replacement services, supplying high-quality hardware from Provia Windows. These high-performance vinyl windows are attractive, energy-efficient and tested to meet strict energy efficiency standards. You always get ENERGY STAR®-rated windows from us.

3. Are You Licensed and Insured?

Your general contractor must have an updated license and carry all the necessary insurance. Liability insurance is especially important, as it protects your home from being liable to injuries a roofer might experience when they work on your property.

4. Can You Provide References?

Finally, make it a point to ask your prospective roofer for homeowner references so that you can have an idea how they work. Alternatively, you may also ask for a portfolio of their previous work.

With over 30 years of combined experience, Home Pro Exteriors, Inc. is the name to trust for quality and professional workmanship every time. Call us today at (845) 343-1777 to learn more about our services. We offer roof and window replacement services throughout Newburgh, NY.
