One of the best ways to judge a roofer is through online reviews. BrightLocal’s 2017 Local Consumer Review Survey says 85% of consumers trust them as much as personal recommendations. Spending a little time reading testimonials written by your prospective company’s past customers is truly beneficial.
For A1 Roofing and Construction, here’s why it’s important to read several reviews on reliable sites when hiring a roofing contractor:
They Tell You if a Contractor Is Dishonest
Online reviews can warn you against false claims and scams. They can give you an idea whether the roofer means what they say. Although the industry predominantly consists of honest and hardworking individuals, some don’t hesitate to give empty promises just to attract customers. Since there’s a contract involved, you should determine if you can trust the other party before signing on the dotted line.
They Reflect the Contractor’s Track Record
Testimonials are written pieces of the roofing contractor’s business history. Many reviewers write about the highlights and issues with the project, sharing the actual events for the world to know. Review sites are the best source of information to learn about the good and bad experiences of your fellow homeowners with particular roofers.
They Show How a Contractor Resolves Complaints
Nobody’s perfect, but reliable roofers make every effort to make up for their mistakes. They have conflict resolution policies to address misunderstandings the proper way. This is why it’s not uncommon to find reviews with a negative comment but a high rating.
