Some bosses only want to be told about important issues if they ask. If they do not ask, their employees know not to tell them. Other bosses encourage their teams to keep them informed, which is nearly always a better management method.
When you engage one of the area’s trustworthy roofers for your residential repair or roof replacement work, you are the boss. You depend on your roofer to provide you news — good or bad — as the job moves along. That is one quality to look for in the most trustworthy roofers: honest communication.
Truth to Power
When you hire a local roofer for repair or replacement work, you hold the purse strings, so you have a certain power over the contractor. Yet you hired the roofer for expertise, so you should encourage your contractor to speak truth to power. If a repair reveals greater damage than first thought, you want to know. If tear off for roof replacement shows failing sheathing beneath, you need to know. Look for a contractor, like Bill West Roofing, willing to speak truth to power — willing to tell you honestly what your roof’s condition is, and how to make it better.
Qualifications and Credentials
Ask your potential roofers for reasons to trust them. What credentials, insurance, and qualifications do they have? At the very least, a good roofer should carry liability insurance and workers compensation coverage, to protect you, the homeowner.
