If your roof is leaking; call Brad Anderson Roofing. We will perform emergency repairs to get you dry and keep you dry until permanent repairs can be completed. Insurance companies will compensate you for the expense of the temporary repair. This will allow you time to choose a qualified installer instead of getting impatient and settling for something less than professional.

Our salesman are available to meet with the claims adjuster to make sure nothing is missed.

When choosing a roofing contractor, nothing is more important than finding a stable and trustworthy company. In the state of Texas, there is no licensing for roofers. After a major storm hits, this allows anybody from anywhere to become a roofer instantly.
Check major roofing manufacturers preferred installer lists. These companies have to meet industry standards for installation. Brad Anderson Roofing is a Peak Performance Contractor with Elk (www.ElkCorp.com) and an Authorized Residential Roofing Installer with GAF (www.GAF.com). Both of these manufacturers require their preferred installers to have up to date liability insurance and meet high standards of customer satisfaction.
Look at old Yellow Page books. Check to see if the companies that you receive estimates from are listed for the amount of years they claim they have been in business for.
Check the companies financial stability. Request information from the local supplier that they use, confirming that they pay their bills. If a company is not large enough to have an account with a supplier, be careful, this usually means they have bad credit.
Ask for references and check them. Look around and find your own references for the company. Most roofing companies have signs in yards of jobs they have contracts on. Watch a job during installation and check with the homeowner after the job is finished to see if they are satisfied.
Request a Liability Insurance Certificate. If the company has up to date liability insurance, they can request a certificate with your name and address on it. A copy of a certificate, does not mean that coverage is in force.
When comparing estimates, make sure you compare apples to apples. All roofers are not the same. Some are not committed to quality roofing practices. They will cut corners and price to get the job. Brad Anderson Roofing wants you to have the information you need to make sure you are not buying a ROOFING PROBLEM that will cost you more $$$ later. Quality roofing is much more than just the roof not leaking when it rains. Our company sees roof problems everyday that were created by poor roof installation. Defects allow leaks that can damage roof decking and allow the proliferation of mold. These defects might never accumulate enough moisture to expose a leak in the interior.
We will not underbid a roofing job just to get work. We have experienced crews and sales staff and take great pride in our ability to install roofs correct the first time. We want to build a long term relationship with clients. The majority of our work comes from references from happy customers.
Watch out for sales people pushing you into a quick decision. Take your time and make sure you are choosing a reputable roofing company.
