Jared Mellick, President of Universal Roof & Contracting, Announces New Website Blog Geared Towards Homeowners and Property Managers

Universal Roof & Contracting president Jared Mellick shares an example of the educational topics that his company's website blog posts for homeowners and property managers.

Orlando, FL, April 27, 2012 --(PR.com)-- In announcing his company's recently launched website blog, Universal Roof & Contracting president Jared Mellick highlighted the website's focus on customer education. As an example of topics, here is what he recommends that people consider when hiring an Orlando roofing contractor:

Roof replacements are a big investment, especially in Orlando. You want to make sure it's done right and is going to last as long as possible in the harsh Florida climate. Here are a few points to consider when hiring an Orlando roofing contractor.

Who will be doing the roof repair or re-roof work?
Many roofers and general contractors actually sub-contract out all the roof repair and roof replacement work. Many homeowners won’t discover the shoddy workmanship until it’s too late (after damage has been done and the company is long gone). Be sure the company you hire uses qualified, in-house staff to oversee all roofing work.

Does the roofing company offer a workmanship guarantee, and for how long?

Most roofing companies in Orlando offer guarantees for their roofing materials, but a workmanship guarantee is different: it guarantees the homeowner peace of mind that the roof is 100% covered for defects in the installation of the roofing system. A workmanship guarantee is absolutely essential, because if the roof isn’t installed properly, then the improper installation could void the roof materials warranty. (For example, Universal Roof & Contracting offers a 10-Year Workmanship Guarantee and 20-30 Year Roof Materials Warrantee.)

Check the roofing company’s track record.

Do a little research on the roofing contractors you meet with. Be sure the company is well-established in Orlando, BBB-accredited (grade A+ preferred) and has a wealth of happy customers that would be willing to refer or provide a testimonial (or online review).

Meet with the roofing company!

Nothing beats face-to-face communication. Schedule a free inspection and estimate (it should be free and no-obligation) and take the time to review their offer and fees. You can get a good sense about the integrity of a business by just talking with the salesperson and asking lots of questions.
