Ask how the roof and gutters will handle heavy rain and where downspouts will discharge.

A repair may make sense when damage is limited and the rest of the roof is in good condition. If leaks recur or deterioration is widespread, ask for an inspection and a comparison of repair and replacement options.

Roof size, pitch, material, access, removal of the old roof and repairs to the underlying decking can all affect cost. Ask for an itemized estimate so you can compare the same scope across bids.

Compare how each material looks, what maintenance it needs and what the installation involves. Tile weight and roof structure matter, and the right metal or shingle system depends on the roof design and your budget.

Stay off the roof, move belongings away from the leak if safe, and document visible damage from the ground. Arrange an inspection to locate the source and discuss temporary protection if needed.

The timeline depends on roof size, complexity, weather, material delivery and any repairs discovered after tear-off. Ask your contractor for the expected start date, installation time and what could cause a delay.

Look for the roofing system, tear-off and disposal, underlayment, flashing, ventilation, decking allowances and warranties. Ask who handles permits and how any additional work will be priced.

Gutters are a separate scope unless your estimate includes them. Ask whether your existing gutters can stay in place and whether any fascia or drainage issues should be addressed during the roofing project.

A workmanship warranty addresses installation under the contractor’s terms. A manufacturer warranty covers eligible product issues under the manufacturer’s terms. Ask what each covers, what it excludes and who handles a claim.
