The Danger Of Homeowners Hiring Laborers For Roofing Projects


Everyone is trying to save a dollar or two on their home improvements including their Atlanta roofing . With the loss of jobs and a sinking economy more and more laid of roofing workers and laborers are printing up business cards to announce to the world that they “are in business ” now.

They slap a magnetic sign on the back of their truck and voila… they are now in business. To make things worse we are seeing your everyday, “Tom, Dick and Harry” that may have done a little roofing in the past or maybe watched it on “This Old House” , who are now out their gunning for your business.

Here is the pitch:

“You buy the materials & we will supply the labor”.

I know it may sound inviting, but is it really as good of a deal as it sounds at first?

This is what we have been finding:

1) Sure you only pay for the labor. Unfortunately, then they don’t do a very good job and leave a lot of cleanup behind.

2) They don’t warranty their labor when there is a leak. (Remember you supplied the material)

3) What about liability? These guys may mean well and give you their best effort. But in the end, if they don’t have rooers insurance, (and believe me its very expensive), and they get hurt…. guess who pays the bills? That’s right- you and your insurance company.

Is it worth the risk? Only you can decide that.
