We’ve all heard the story of the homeowner whose roof warranty was no good because the roofing company was no longer in business. The roofing industry has a failure rate of 80%, and homeowners can avoid common pitfalls by being prudent in the selection process. Here are three things to know before hiring a roofing company:

  • :: 1 :: Know the age of the company
      An established roofing company will have already proven they’ll be there to take your call should you need to exercise your warranty. Verify this by performing a search on the Georgia Secretary of State website. It will tell you if the company is registered with the state and the year of its inception. With a failure rate of 80%, it is crucial not to take this step lightly, and the process only takes a couple of minutes. You’ll have peace of mind knowing you haven’t chosen a start-up company to handle your roofing project. What good is a 5-year warranty if the company is only months old?
  • :: 2 :: Know where they are licensed
      Ask your contractor where they are licensed and call to verify.
  • :: 3 :: Know they are insured
      Verify this by requesting a certificate of insurance from your contractor and calling the number on the COI. They can determine if the policy is current.

These verification steps take no more than 10 minutes and can safeguard you from future costs and headaches.

Our Home Owners Say

“We cannot recommend this Chris & this company more. We met Chris almost two years ago when he was in the area doing roof inspections. He was so kind and knowledgeable that we kept his contact information and when we had roof damage earlier this year he was who we called. Chris helped us navigate our claim with insurance and was able to successfully get us a new roof through insurance due to the hail damage ours had received. He was always quick to come onsite, answer our calls, etc and his crew did incredible work in two days. Definitely give Avalon a call if you need any assistance with your roof!”

Kristin Thomas • HOME OWNER

“From start to finish Avalon Restoration was a pleasure to work with. They were able to replace our roof in a day, and did a fantastic job. They also made working with our insurance company such an easy process! We appreciate all the hard work they did on our behalf.”

Chloe Hernandez • HOME OWNER

“What can I say that hasn’t already been said from other reviews. I highly recommend Chris and Avalon. Not just for the work that they did on my home, but for the service they provided. Even when issues outside of his scope of work come up he’s there. He’s a problem solver and a contractor that truly likes serving and helping others. It’s not often that you get the service that makes you feel like you are a company’s only customer.”

Kevin Richardson • HOME OWNER

“Great work, great employees, great owner. Candace was there every step of the way for the roof project, Chris Flanagan (Buisiness Owner), came by my house, several times and took personal interest in making sure my experience with the project was effortless on my part, his staff communicated with the insurance company directly. They were there with the insurance appraiser, ensuring nothing was missed, and that I understood, the process. They not only gave me a new upgraded roof, but took care of interior damage to my ceiling. Addtionally my gazebo roof was upgraded as well. The roof’s and interior ceiling look great! They did a thorough cleanup before they left. I highly recommend this company, and guarantee you won’t be disappointed.”
