The state of Georgia doesn't have any regulations or minimum licensing requirements in the roofing industry. The truth of the matter is that if you have a truck, and a ladder you can call yourself a roofer. This is why you must be cautious when choosing a commercial roofing contractor in the state of Georgia. Avoid signing up with a company that is not bonded. A bonded company is bound to carry out the assigned work. I am saying this for your own good. To be more specific, if you aren't satisfied with the work accomplished by the commercial roofing company you can have them re-do the work all over again if the company you choose is bonded. Make sure you find out whether the commercial roofing company you intend to choose is a member of any national or local associations or not. This will further add to your confidence. For example: Whitco Roofing is a member of the NRCA (National Roofing Contractors Association). NRCA is one of the construction industry's most respected trade associations and the voice and leading authority in the roofing industry for information, education, technology and advocacy. Whitco Roofing is also a member of the Cobb County Chamber of Commerce.
Don’t hire based on price alone. All of us want a great deal, but like the old saying goes “you get what you pay for. Everybody wants a Cadillac, with a Chevrolet price tag. As you know in most cases quality is going to have an added premium. As well as great service, when you pay to have dinner at a nice restaurant you’re not only paying for the food, but for the services as well.

Some roofers in Atlanta will ask for less money just to win the bid. How do you think they are so much lower? They use inferior materials, shortchange surface preparation, and spend less time on the job which results in a problem for you down the road. Nothing is wrong with bargain hunting, but research the roofing materials used. The pricing, and some fair price ranges on the scope of work. In the end, find a commercial roofer that's reliable, and fair in their workmanship and price and you'll find a roofer for life.
Hopefully that roofer will be Whitco Roofing, INC.
