What is the process like for a roof replacement contractor – Colorado Springs CO?

  1. First, schedule an inspection with Vector Roofing.
  2. If this is an insurance claim, after the initial inspection is completed, we’ll work with your insurance adjuster to review the recommendations.
  3. Once the insurance company approves the claim, we send out the contract either with a sit-down appointment or via our electronic signature system (DocuSign) to the homeowner’s email address.
  4. Once the contract is signed, we settle the logistics, including pulling the permit, putting together the material order, and scheduling delivery with the homeowner.
  5. Next, we schedule the roofing installation date
  6. Note that the driveway must be clear for the delivery and installation dates
  7. Our roofers show up early to begin the tear-off of the existing roof. This may be roughly 6:30 AM on the morning of the roofing date.
  8. During tear-off, we ask that you keep your pets and children inside to prevent any injury from falling materials.
  9. Depending on which county the homeowner lives in, we either tear off and dry in the roof and wait for the mid roof inspector to come out (typically the next business day) then go back up the following day to complete the new roof. Or we tear off and dry in the roof on the same day when a mid roof inspection is not required.
  10. If we discover any structural issues or wood rot that were not apparent during the initial visual inspection, we will discuss any necessary changes to the project scope.
  11. After the roof is complete we send the original salesman out to confirm the homeowner’s satisfaction with the new roof.
  12. We sweep the property with a magnet to clean up any nails that flew off during the process.
  13. We bring an invoice to collect either the first payment or the contract in full (depending on each contract).
  14. We request the final inspection with the local building departments.
  15. We have no control over when they go out, but we will always make sure to follow up with the homeowner to confirm the roof passed or correct any items that may come up.
