Hiring a roofer in Evanston

Ask every bidder for the roof area in squares, the product by name, and a written labor warranty.

Start with three bids. Line the scopes up next to each other before you look at the totals, because a low number usually means a smaller scope rather than a better price. Check the license, confirm workers compensation coverage.

Illinois licenses roofing contractors through the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. Look up a license before you hire.
