How Do I Compare Roofing Services in My State?
Short answer: start with your state's rules (license or registration requirements), then compare 2 or 3 local roofers on reviews, insurance, the details of their written quotes, and their warranties. Roofers Directory lists roofers by state and city so you can compare in one place.
1. Learn your state's rules
Requirements differ. California requires a CSLB license, New Jersey requires home improvement contractor registration, Pennsylvania requires registration with the Attorney General, and Texas has no statewide roofing license. Your city or county may add its own rules.
