Manpower:
This is actually a legitimate question, does the company have a large enough workforce to complete your commercial roofing project on time without cutting corners? Quite often, small, inexperienced roofing companies can provide nice-looking proposals and not really complete the job.
Licensing:
Having access to both a roofing license and a general contractor's license provides the company further flexibility if additional work needs to be done outside of a roofing license scope. Keeping all the work with one company can cut costs and keep the project on time without delays.
Experience:
Have they worked on a similar project? Sure, each commercial roofing project is unique. However, it will surely give you peace of mind if you've seen proof that the company has handled projects akin to yours.
Reputation:
This is big! Make sure to complete your due diligence on the company you want to contract for your commercial roofing project. Be sure they have good reviews, and if there are bad ones, read what happened and see if the company responded. Please make sure they are in good standing with organizations such as the BBB.
Low Bids:
This one can be tricky, as, of course, everyone wants to get the best price possible. But if a company is coming in with an abnormally low bid, you would be wise to raise an eyebrow! This can be a sign of inexperience or a smaller company trying to get a bid. Keep in mind; everyone must turn a profit. If things go sour with your project and they don't have much money to work with, corners will be cut.
