WHAT THE WORK INVOLVES
Know the home.
Understand the work.
Consider the architecture
A material should complement the home while meeting structural and local requirements. Samples can help you see color and texture in real light.
Compare the whole picture
Installed cost is only part of the decision. Ask about maintenance, fastening, underlayment, weight, ventilation, and system compatibility.
Review the specifications
Compare the exact products and installation details in each proposal. Warranty terms and performance ratings vary by manufacturer and assembly.
FROM FIRST QUESTION TO NEXT STEP
Before work begins.
Put the scope in writing.
Review materials, removal, flashing, ventilation, cleanup, and the work included in the estimate.
Agree on the details.
Confirm the schedule, access, payment terms, and how changes will be handled before authorizing construction.
GOOD TO KNOW
A few helpful
answers.
Do you handle insurance-related roofing projects?
Yes. Mainstead is an insurance contractor. Discuss the roof assessment, damage documentation, and contractor’s estimate with us. Your insurer determines coverage, claim payments, and your deductible under the policy.
Can I get an estimate without an insurance claim?
Yes. Mainstead also provides retail estimates for roofing and exterior projects. Share your address, the work you have in mind, and any material preferences so the project scope and availability can be discussed.
Do I need a repair or a full replacement?
The answer depends on the condition of the roof, the extent of damage, its age, and the existing assembly. An assessment can help distinguish a localized issue from a system-wide problem. A leak alone does not automatically mean the entire roof needs replacing.
