When you are evaluating roof contractors to potentially hire, there are several things to look for before you do.
First, you want to make sure that the roofer is local. Sometimes people will come in from other areas to do some work, but then they return home.

If that is the case, where do you go if there's a problem with it? That's why you need the contractor to show that they are local and established in the area.
You also need to make sure that your roof contractors have their own insurance. Insurance is needed to protect both you and the contractor in case there is an accident. Working on the roof is dangerous, and you don't want to be sued if someone falls and gets injured.
The next step is to look at reviews for the roof contractors. Find out which ones don't have a great reputation and which ones are making clients happy with their work. Then, make sure that the roofer is accredited. Most are accredited by one or more manufacturers and this is public information you can confirm.
