Don’t let the wrong roofing partner cost you time, money, or tenant trust. Here are the top mistakes to avoid.
Mistake 1: Choosing the Lowest Bid
Cheap bids often lead to change orders, delays, or subpar work. Always compare scope, not just price.
Mistake 2: Not Checking References
Ask for apartment-specific references and call them. Not all roofers understand multifamily logistics.
Mistake 3: No Warranty or License
Make sure your roofer is fully insured, licensed, and provides written warranty terms.
Mistake 4: Poor Communication
If they’re hard to reach before the job, they’ll be harder during it. Communication matters.
Mistake 5: Skipping the Inspection
Never approve a roofing job without a formal inspection, moisture test, and condition report.
