Homeowner roofing-estimate checklist
A homeowner roofing estimate should identify the exact roof area, materials, tear-off, deck allowance, underlayment, flashings, ventilation, cleanup, schedule, payment terms and warranties. The written scope should state the assumption that changes the answer.
Define what is being removed
Confirm the number of layers, disposal, protection and whether old flashings or vents are replaced or reused.

Name the complete new system
Look for product line, underlayment, eave protection, starter, ridge, fasteners, ventilation and custom metal details.

Clarify money and changes
Payment milestones, tax, allowances, exclusions and the method for approving concealed damage should be in writing.
