People tend to wait until the very last minute to have a roof replacement done because they’re worried about the cost, but knowing how the project’s finances will be calculated can take some of the stress out of the process. If you reside on the Hawaiian island of Oahu, it would be wise to turn to an experienced roofing company such as My Roofing Co. Proudly serving the Kaneohe area for more than 35 years, they have become known as one of the best roofers throughout Honolulu because of their honesty, dependability, and quality of work.

These are important traits when looking for the right contractor or company for a roof replacement. The only way to determine if you’re dealing with a reputable company and receiving a fair price is by doing your homework. 

Before having a roofing company out for an estimate, you should know the average cost of installing a new roof in your area. If the quoted price on your desired surface is much higher than the average price, you should ask for further explanation. All estimates should be written so they can be carefully understood and examined—you can also use a written estimate to compare against others to determine the best one. While you should always be wary of being overcharged, you should also be concerned if a roofer quotes you an incredibly cheap price. If it’s much lower than average costs, it might be too good to be true.

In addition to knowing the average cost, you should be aware of what that cost entails. Since most roofs are different, the charges can be different between you and your next door neighbor. This is because the cost can fluctuate based on the roof’s size, slope, and complexity, as well as the amount of materials, tools, and equipment needed to perform the work. Survey your roof to understand the challenges that a roofer may have while working. This will allow you to be informed when they start quoting cost estimates. 

When time comes time to replace your roof, be sure to do your homework and consult with professionals who possess a proven track record of success within the community. As a locally-owned company with one of the longest histories in the area, My Roofing Co will always submit a competitive bid on a new roof that will be built to last for decades.
