Looking for a roofer

eillac@dow · 10-29-2009, 11:14 AM

Hi Everyone,

My brother has a home on Long Island in Moultonboro and is in need of a Roofer.

Can anyone refer roofers in this area?

I checked thru some of the past threads, but did not come up with much.

Thanks all.

Call Gary Ames at GLA Carpentry. He has done many a roof in town and I have never heard a complaint from anyone I referred to him. 603-677-2460 is his cell phone.

They did a buddy's roof on Sleepers Island. First class job with no mess.
Page Roofing of Gilford did the Green's mansion on Long Island. Pretty impressive job.

Blue Moon Builders will have best price and get it done quickly (603) 293-7901.
most of the waterfront homes in meredith are done by them.

whoever you go with make sure you get proof of insurance for everyone on the job. Blue Moon Builders has it but most do not!

This last statement is not directed at you or your company Boo.
Beyond proof of insurance is required, anyone with a hammer and a tool kit can get insurance as well as a federal business ID. Get a reference list and call everyone on it. Call the BBB. Find out when they started the business and why. Make sure they have a permanent place of business, make them prove that they have some skin in the game and are not just trying it out or getting some side work. This is common in all aspects of construction, but roofing is quick and easy to perform, so it draws a very diverse collection of players.

Not only do you need to get an insurance certificate, you must also check that the type of insurance they have covers the type of work they are doing.
I decided on a roofer who sent me a certificate that covered interior carpentry only. When I contacted their agent and told him they were about to do my roof, their policy was canceled (fraud?). Apparently roofers insurance is much more expensive than interior carpentry.

I still need a new roof, and I'm looking for a reputable roofer myself.
