Hiring a roofer in Hempstead

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 city license, confirm workers compensation coverage.

New York issues no state roofing license. In New York City a roofer needs a Home Improvement Contractor license from the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, and Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Putnam and Rockland run their own. A roofer licensed in one of them is not automatically licensed in the next. Look up a city license before you hire.
