Importance of Effective Communication with your Roof Repair Contractor

Mar 29,2017

Proper communication with your roof repair contractor is the key of having a successful roof repair or replacement project done. In fact, project professionals estimate that good communication is 90% of all projects.

Proper communication with the contractor eliminates the possibility of being disappointed with your new roof or roofing repair.

You can hire a professional contractor for your roofing project but without clear lines of communication, the project may not end with the results you had in mind. Here are some tips to ensure that you are effective in your communication with your roofing contractor.

Tips of Effective Communication with your Roof Repair Contractor

 

• Provide the necessary information
  Including all of your contact details. It’s not enough that you know how to contact your contractor; they also need to know the best ways get in touch with you at all times.
  
  Once you choose a roofing contractor, make sure to provide them with all the necessary project information, but also provide them with a list of phone numbers and email addresses where you can be reached.
  
  This way, they will be able to contact you easily in case they have further queries or in case there's an emergency or urgent and time-critical need for additional information regarding your roof repair project.
• Let them know Your Response Routine
  It could be that you generally only answer emails at the end of the day, or you might often be unable to answer the phone but are able to quickly respond to text messages.
  
  In either case, it’s best to let your contractor know how you're best able to communicate. In some cases, you’ll need to be able to respond quickly. A slow response might mean that you’re also delaying the progress of your roofing project.
• Set Deadlines or Check Points
  Setting a sensible deadline for an assignment is important. If it's not possible, however, set check-in points during the course of the project to avoid leaving tasks open-ended.
• Know the Jargon
  An important way of effectively communicating with your roofing contractor is being able to speak their language. Although you don’t have to be an expert in roofing, you should still try to familiarize yourself with the technical jargon somewhat so that you have a better understanding of what your roofer is referring to when they're working on your roofing project.
• Remain Informed
  Some home and business owners feel that asking questions from their roofing contractor will annoy them. But we at Royal Roofing Ltd. welcome questions from our customers. We are always open to discussions and feel that informed customers are the best customers.
