A best practice in getting bids for roof replacement is to make sure the specifications are similar from one bid to the next. We wrote a blog post about “apples-to-apples” in getting roof bids, check it out.

When evaluating prices for commercial roof systems and materials, ensuring comparable specifications is crucial. Variations in the quality of the roof system or the type of materials used can significantly impact the overall installation cost and long-term performance.

Key Considerations:

Similar Specifications: When comparing bids, ensure that the specifications provided by different contractors are similar. This ensures a fair comparison of costs and performance expectations.

Manufacturer Quality: Opting for reputable manufacturers such as Firestone, Carlisle, or GAF (and their subsidiaries) ensures you benefit from their extensive backing and warranty support. These major manufacturers invest billions of dollars into their products, providing assurance that the warranties they issue are robust and reliable.

Saving Costs: While it’s essential to consider all major manufacturers, be cautious of lesser-known brands that may not offer the same level of warranty protection or quality assurance. Open your options to reputable manufacturers to maximize cost savings without compromising on quality or warranty coverage.

Apples-to-Apples Comparison: By maintaining an open approach to major manufacturers, you can obtain competitive bids that reflect the true value and quality of the materials and installation services offered. This approach ensures transparency and helps you make informed decisions that align with your budget and long-term roofing needs.
