At Company Roofing & Exteriors, we ask that our homeowners pay us a first payment the day we complete the roof installation, and the remainder upon completion of the project. Because there are so many companies that are scamming homeowners we feel it best to provide you with the finished product and then collect payment. This ensures that you are 100% satisfied with the job and know that you got what you were promised.
If a company asks for money up front that is a sure sign that something is wrong. No contractor should need money up front to start a job. They should be operating on a credit system with the supplier so that they can defer payment on materials until after the work is complete.
