Pennsylvania does not have any specific roofing contractor licensing requirements, but any contractor who completes over $5,000 worth of home improvements annually must register with the Attorney General's Office. Contractors must show proof of insurance when registering. Your municipality may also have its own local requirements.
There are a number of things you can consider when choosing a roofer, such as:
Roof repair costs vary widely depending on what kinds of repairs are required. The average across all of Pennsylvania is about $946, but for a more accurate estimate you should ask a local contractor directly.
Typically, Pennsylvania homeowners pay about $8,059 to replace a roof. This cost will fluctuate depending on your location, and will be influenced by factors like how many stories your home has, the size and accessibility of your roof, and the material used.
It normally takes between one and five days to replace a roof. This timeline might vary depending on things like your roof's size, how many levels your home has, and the weather in your part of Pennsylvania.
In certain cases, home insurance will cover roof repairs. Before choosing a provider, get in touch with your insurance company and ask if it has any preferred contractors. Your insurance company might be more likely to cover repairs for damage caused by a covered weather event like LightningRisk. Before you sign any repair or replacement contracts, it's a good idea to speak with your home insurance provider and a financial advisor.
