Ask before you hire

01What underlayment are you installing, and is it synthetic or felt?
02Is ridge and soffit ventilation included, or quoted separately?
03What's the written warranty on labour vs. materials?
04Will you re-flash the chimney, skylights, and vents, or reuse existing?

Red flags to watch for

Door-to-door storm-chasers after hail — check their WCB and liability before anything else.
Quote without photos of the current roof condition attached.
Deposit larger than 20–30% up front.
No WorkSafeBC coverage — a fall on your roof without it lands liability on you.

Permits & licensing

When to book
