What To Ask Your Contractor

Do you have a current roofing contractor's license (C-39) issued by the State of California and a current city license (where applicable)?
As of July 1, 2000, all Home Improvement contractors and subcontractors must have a Home Improvement Certification (HIC) or they cannot do home improvement work. In most cases, if a permit is required, the Building Department will not issue it unless the contractor has HIC certification. A home improvement contractor will have "HIC" listed on their pocket license along with their license class.
Do you have both Liability and Workers' Compensation Insurance?
Can you provide me with a list of former customers?
Can you provide me with a written contract with payment instructions and total price?
Do you have a start and completion date?
Will you furnish me your own written guarantee?
Will you furnish me a manufacturer’s warranty?
Will you obtain the required reroofing permits?
