+
If you're looking to hire a contractor to work on your roof, be sure and look at their references. Swing by the homes the contractor worked on to check their quality. You should take a look at some of the properties yourself. Take a quick drive and look at the work before making any decisions.
  
If you're having a contractor remove your roof, mow your lawn first. This can help them easily find any nails they drop, making things easier on both of you. Short grass also makes a magnetic nail finder work much more efficiently.
+
Make a list of questions to ask before hiring a roofer. One question is the amount of nails that need to be inserted into every shingle. Three nails or less is generally considered inadequate. Ask them about the procedures that they will be using. If the contractor does not provide you with an adequate response, then seek out another one.
  
With roofing, it's important to think about the weather. If you're in a dry climate, a clay roof is a good way to keep your home cool. Clay tiles that are on a home that is in a place where it rains all the time can deteriorate fast. Always ask an expert's opinion on the best types of roofs for your home.

Be certain your roofing contractor is properly licensed. Never take a roofer's word as the gospel truth. Contact your local building department and ask them what is needed.

+
Get contractor referrals from loved ones. Ask around to see if anyone you know recently hired a roofing contractor who did a good job. You might also inquire about the clean-up involved after completion or whether certain materials and work was covered by warranty.
  
When hiring a contractor to work on your roof, do your homework. You shouldn't hire the first or the cheapest one you find. Rather, do a bit of research on all the contractors in your area. The Internet is a great resource, as are family members and friends.
+

+
Contractors with workers tend to be cheaper than those who work alone. The more people working on the roof, the quicker the job can be completed. Weigh out the pros and cons of each contractor as a worker doing the job alone may charge you more.
  
Ask any contractor you are considering what associations the roofing company is a member of. These associations help contractors learn more about latest techniques and tools, which means your contractor should be more efficient if he belongs to a few associations. If this isn't the case, you need to be wondering whether the contractor is fully dedicated to his work.
