FAQs
Why is it important to get a written estimate for a roof replacement in Ooltewah?
A written estimate protects you by clearly spelling out the scope of work, materials, labor costs, and project timeline before any shingles are removed. Because Ooltewah sees everything from summer downpours to winter ice, it’s crucial to know that the proposed roofing system and price reflect local building codes and weather challenges. A written document also lets you compare contractors on an apples-to-apples basis and eliminates unwelcome surprises once the job begins.
What information should a professional roof-replacement estimate include?
Our estimates list: 1) roof square footage and the exact products to be installed (shingle brand, underlayment, flashing, ventilation components), 2) labor and material costs broken out separately, 3) disposal fees and site-cleanup provisions, 4) projected start and completion dates, 5) warranty coverage for both materials and workmanship, 6) proof of licensing, insurance, and workers’ compensation, and 7) payment schedule and accepted forms of payment. You’ll have everything in writing so you can review it line-by-line.
How long after the roof inspection will I receive my written estimate?
In most cases we deliver your detailed, line-item estimate within 24–48 hours of the on-site inspection. Complex roofs or situations where we must wait on a specialty material quote may add an extra day, but we’ll always give you a target delivery time before we leave your property.
Are you licensed and insured to perform roof replacements in Tennessee?
Yes. We hold a Tennessee General Contractor license and carry $2 million in general liability insurance along with full workers’ compensation coverage for every crew member. Copies of our certificates are attached to each written estimate so you can verify them before signing any agreement.
How accurate are your written estimates—can the price change later?
Barring hidden structural damage (for example, rotten decking that can’t be seen until the old roof is removed), the price you see is the price you pay. If unforeseen issues arise, we document them with photos, explain why the extra work is necessary, and issue a change order you must approve before we proceed. No work—or billing—continues without your signed authorization.
Does requesting an estimate obligate me to hire your company?
Not at all. Estimates are free and carry no obligation. We encourage you to compare our proposal with other licensed Ooltewah roofers. If you choose us, we’ll schedule your project at your convenience; if not, the written estimate is yours to keep for future reference.
