Proper communication with your contractor is crucial to the success of your roofing project. Whether it’s a total roof replacement job or a simple repair, you should make sure that you can comfortably and effectively communicate with the people working on your roof.
In this post, Deschutes Roofing shares some tips on communicating with your roofer.
Offer the Necessary Information
Have the initiative to prepare and offer the necessary information that your contractor will need. This includes all relevant details regarding your roof requirements as well as your contact details (phone numbers and email addresses). This way, consultations can go more smoothly, and they can readily make recommendations for your project. It’s also important that they know how to reach you in case an urgent matter arises.
Keep Yourself Informed
It helps for you to be aware of the roof repair or replacement process so that you’ll have an idea of what’s going on at any point in the project. This will also guide you in asking the right questions or voicing concerns about the job. Oftentimes customers fail to make relevant inquiries because they don’t know what to expect. By educating yourself and keeping tabs on the progress of the job, you can be more involved in ensuring the best results.
Let Them Know Your Availability
This may seem like a simple and obvious thing to do, but it’s also not uncommon for clients to forget about informing their contractors about their availability. This often leads to missed calls and communication gaps. That said, make sure to tell your contractor the best times that you can receive calls. If you are unable to get on the phone, let them know of your preferred alternate mode of communication — like text messages or emails.
