A roof is a big investment. Its job is to shelter everything of value inside your home, including your family.
When you need a new roof, choosing the right installer for the job is a must. By doing so, you'll ensure you’re getting the most reliable roof possible.
7 qualities to consider
1. Experience
Roofing is both an art and a science. It takes years to perfect. You don’t want to be someone’s first roof, or even their 10th. It’s important to choose a company with a fine-tuned process that includes outstanding craftsmanship and workmanship.
Over the last 30 years, we’ve worked on more than 100,000 roofs. We’ve developed a highly refined roofing system and installation process, with a reason for each step.
No two roofs are the same, and if a roofer has a strong, repeatable process, they can handle practically any roof issue they encounter. Our precise process has become second nature for our installers, which helps minimize errors and produce excellent results.
2. Credentials
The roofer you choose should be licensed and insured in your state. These qualifications ensure high-quality work, legal compliance, consumer protection, and financial security. Trinity is licensed and insured in all our service areas.
3. Materials
Not all shingles are created equally. Flat-tab asphalt shingles may be the least expensive, but they’re also the least likely to withstand high winds and harsh weather.
Our customers deserve the best, so we only use IKO Dynasty architectural shingles. A few of their key features include:
- • 130 mph wind rating
- • Thick material for improved protection
- • Layered design for durability and appearance
- • Resistance to impact and algae growth
4. Warranty
After investing in a new roof, you need assurance that it will stand the test of time. We have confidence in our work, which is why we offer an industry-leading warranty. Your Trinity roof is backed by a 25-year craftsmanship and labor warranty.
Best of all, if you already have solar panels or decide to install them, your roof warranty with us remains intact even after panels are installed. Other roofers void their warranties as soon as you add solar panels. Learn more about roof warranties.
5. Fast customer service
If your roof is leaking, it needs attention. And fast. You don’t have time to wait around for a roofer to return your call because the longer you wait, the greater the damage will be.
For any roofing service needs, Trinity is available around the clock. Just one call does it all. No need to coordinate with multiple companies.
6. Safety
Roofing can be dangerous for both workers and homeowners. Thousands of pounds of debris and nails come off the roof, and there are people working on high, slanted surfaces. The process requires significant collaboration and coordination.
Because of these risks, it’s crucial to choose a company that prioritizes safety. Trinity puts people first, both homeowners and employees. Our installers and install partners complete rigorous safety training and are OSHA compliant. Your family and home are in good hands while we work on your roof, and afterwards. Following installation, we do a thorough site cleanup so no people or paws step on nails or other harmful materials.
7. Payment options
Every household is unique and has varying budgets. Some people want to finance their roof, others want to buy it up front. Look for a roofer that offers a variety of plans so you’re not forced into one that doesn’t work for you.
Trinity offers multiple payments options, and we can help you weigh your choices. Explore roofing payment options.
Beware of “Chuck in a Truck” roofers
If you shop around for roofers, you might come across this scenario: A very small company (maybe even one person with a truck) offers you an unbeatable low price on a roof. They show up at your home, chuck the materials onto your roof, then drive off, never to be heard from again.
If you have a problem with your roof, there’s no clear warranty or accountability. You’re out of luck and will need to hire another roofer to fix the problem. So, what looked like a great deal at first ends up being more costly than the most premium roof.
Moral of the story: you get what you pay for. Trinity roofing solutions aren’t the cheapest, but they’re a great value for the guaranteed quality and durability.
