Share the address, the reason for calling and any useful history about earlier roof work. Ground-level photos and the timing of a leak can make the first conversation more productive.
Collect any written scope or warranty from prior work and make a note of when the current issue started. If the property has special access or the building is occupied, explain that before the visit.
Contact the Dekoven Roofing office if you have a question about your project or want to request an estimate.
A little preparation makes the first estimate faster and more accurate.
Tell the roofer about leaks, stains and past work, even small ones.
Expect the roofer to look at the roof from the ground and, if safe, on the roof, then check the attic or ceilings if there are leak symptoms. Ask them to explain what they see in plain terms.
Take notes or ask for photos so you can compare estimates later. The explanation matters as much as the number.
What will the estimate include? When will I receive it?
It helps for the first visit.
Yes.
Yes, and it is a good idea.
