Here’s How to Discover the Best Roofing Company Near You
Wondering who the best roofer is in Athens, GA? We don’t blame you. A new roof is a major decision and a big investment, and literally protects you and your family. You don’t want just anyone taking on that responsibility.
Review Reviews…Carefully.
Business Google reviews and testimonials are a good place to start when you’re looking for the best roofing company near you. (Here’s ours!) What is the average rating of your options? Do the reviews seem credible? Real? How many reviews do they have? Does the roofer respond? If there’s a bad review, is the roofing company professional in their response? Does the complaint seem legitimate, or possibly even written by a competitor with a poor moral compass?
Ever hear the one about never trusting someone that cheats at golf? If you’re willing to lie about a competitor on their Google Review page chances are you’re not going to be a good steward of your clients’ best interests. What about other sites, surely the best roofing company in town would be an Angie’s List Preferred Contractor like us?
Does the Roofing Company Support Local Organizations?
Another area to consider is their association with industry groups and local organizations. Fly-by-night roofing companies don’t invest resources in building their business locally or contributing to the fabric of the community. Does the roofing company belong to the Chamber? We do. Are they a member in good standing and an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau? (We are.) Do they invest in local causes and charities? (Check! We love Books for Keeps!)
What Industry Groups Does the Roofer Belong to?
How about industry groups? The best roofing businesses belong to groups like the Home Builders Association and are respected and credentialed by top, high-quality suppliers like GAF. When trying to find the best roofing company in Athens, for example, you can ask: Are you a member of the Athens Area Home Builders Association? (We are!) Are you a GAF Certified roofing company? (100%) How about- and here’s a big one- is the company a member of the National Roofing Contractors Association? (You better believe we are!)
And don’t forget about warranties! Not only are we permitted to offer long warranties by our supply vendors (because they trust us to install correctly), we further warranty our workmanship for 5 years.
