A true story about a roofing contractor charging $15,000 more than Signature Roofing, Inc. company<\/em><\/h3>\n

A majority of homeowners hire a roofing company<\/a> once or twice in a lifetime. Since a new roof isn\u2019t something you buy every day, how much to pay for a roof can be a mystery. Roofing company quotes can vary by thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n

Homeowners face overpaying roofing contractors<\/a> for a roof other roofing companies would install for less. They also face roofing contractors who underbid other roofing companies, but cut corners on roofing materials or work quality to keep costs down.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t have to be this way when you\u2019re hiring a roofing contractor. One homeowner can attest to that personally. He accepted a $32,000 roofing quote from a well-known Bay Area roofing company. The homeowner felt the roofing quote was a little on the high end, but had no other roofing estimates for comparison.<\/p>\n

The homeowner asked a few neighbors which roofing company they\u2019d used for their roofing. We have several roofing projects<\/a> in this particular neighborhood so our name came up. He called Signature Roofing, Inc. company<\/strong> and asked if the other roofer had given him a fair price.<\/p>\n

George Belden, Signature Roofing, Inc.<\/a> company owner, knows this area well and knew immediately the roofing company had inflated the roofing quote. In fact, this homeowner was being overcharged by $15,000. George gave the homeowner a Signature Roofing, Inc. estimate the next day and the other agreement was cancelled.<\/p>\n

This tale of two roofing company estimates isn\u2019t only about a homeowner almost spending $15,000 more than he had to or the fact that he ended up with a better roof and warranty\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s about finding a roofing company you can trust. Signature Roofing, Inc. could\u2019ve marked up the roofing quote and still saved the homeowner thousands compared to the other company\u2019s estimate. George could\u2019ve tacked on unnecessary bells and whistles. Additional material or clean up fees could\u2019ve been charged. But that\u2019s not how Signature Roofing, Inc. does business.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll never know what a fair roofing estimate<\/a> is until you get several from different roofing contractors. Get a roofing estimate! Get two roofing quotes. Heck, get three roofing estimates. Compare the roofing quotes against other Bay Area roofing contractors\u2019 pricing, quality, warranty and workmanship.<\/p>\n

Just look at the pricing, look at the roofing materials<\/a> used and look at the professionalism of the quote. You\u2019ll quickly know which roofing contractor to choose.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
