When you search for an Orlando roofing company, you’re going to get a lot of results. Some are there because they really deserve to be there. Others come up because they have a great website and use the techniques to get their site to rank. But, how do you know the one you’re thinking of calling really is a top or leading roofing company in Orlando and really based in the area? What makes a roofing contractor a company to call? Here are some things that can help you choose the right roofer whether you’re local to Orlando or not.
Proper License
In Florida there are two types of licenses for roofers. The more advanced license is the Certified Roofing Contractor license. When you hire an Orlando roofing company you can tell that they’re a Certified Roofing Contractor when their license begins with CCC. You’ll find that a Certified Roofing Contractor has a higher level of proficiency than the other license type. Because Florida makes it easy to search the license information on the company, you’ll also be able to see how long they’ve held that license. Click here to search the company you’re considering.
HAAG Certifications
One of the least known, but most respected certifications in the roofing industry doesn’t have anything to do with state licensing. It’s the Haag Certified Roofing Inspector and there are three designations, HCI-R, HCI-C, AND HCI-W for residential, commercial and wind damage inspections respectively. This certification carries a great deal of respect with insurance adjustors and home builders. You can search for a HAAG Certified Inspector here.
Manufacturer Certifications
When a roofer takes the time to attend a manufacturer’s training, you have the assurance that they know the recommended methods of installation for their products. Although not every manufacturer offers certification training, the fact a roofer took the time and spent the money to go to even one, should tell you about their attention to detail and desire for the highest level of satisfaction.
Industry Mentions & Awards
Sometimes different manufacturers, associations and publications in the industry give out awards. Those awards can vary from a national recognition to a local level but they’re not something every roofing company can claim.
