1What to Ask a Orange Roofer

Beware the Orange quote that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. Ask any Orange roofer what happens if the deck is worse than expected, and get the answer ahead of the covering comes off. Two warranties apply on Orange work: the manufacturer's on the material and the installer's on the workmanship. Ask for both. A good Orange roofer will talk you out of work you do not need, which is the clearest signal there is. Documented scope, written price and a written warranty are the minimum on any Orange job.
