How to Avoid a Scam Roofing Contractor

The roof over your head is on of your home’s most important features, and it is one that when well maintained will prevent significant structural deterioration, expense and loss of home value. However, as with nearly every other profession, there are roofing contractors that offer professional and efficient service, like A&E Queens Roofing, for instance, and those that offer frustration, immense expense and even owner liability issues.

Knowing the difference between a professional roofing contractor and a scam roofing contractor is not all that difficult, but it does require knowing what the more likely scams are, understanding where to turn for information on individual contractors, asking the right questions, and understanding the details of a good contract.

A good place to start is with the Better Business Bureau. According to Alison Southwick, spokesperson for the Better Business Bureau, more than 7,000 complaints against roofing contractors were reported in 2008, making roofers rank 20th out of the organization’s 3,900 industry categories. Roofing contractors also ranked number 1 in type of business that people researched with the Better Business Bureau. Overall, reliability reports on roofing contractors were sought out more than 2 million times.
