As one of the industry’s most respected trade associations, the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) providers member contractors the resources they need to provide the best products and services for their customers. As one such member, roof service company Fields Roof Service, Inc. shares a look at the benefits of working with an NRCA member.
Qualifications for NRCA Membership
The NRCA has strict requirements for contractors that apply for membership:
Physical Location, Business License and Tax Identification Number — This indicates that the contractor is a legitimate, tax-paying local business.
Contractor’s License — It should be noted that a contractor’s license is different from a business license. The Washington Department of Labor and Industries requires all contractors in the state to apply for a license before performing contracting work.
Insurance Coverage — Roofing contractors need to have insurance that includes liability insurance coverage (for accidental property damage) and workers’ compensation (for accidental worksite injuries). Without such coverage, you may end up being liable for the cost of roof repair or medical fees.
Other requirements include statements of the contractor’s financial status and outstanding customer complaints. Many of these requirements are the ones that you should look for when finding a legitimate roof contractor, so hiring an NRCA member actually makes it easy for you to find a contractor that you can trust.
Benefits of Hiring an NRCA Member
When you hire an NRCA member contractor, you will have the peace of of mind knowing that your roof will be in good hands. You will enjoy the following benefits:
- Code-Compliant Roofing — When you work with an NRCA member, you know that your roof will comply with all applicable building codes.
- Up-to-Date Installation Methods — NRCA keeps members updated on the latest developments in the roofing industry. This means whether it’s a minor repair or a full roof replacement, you don’t have to worry about your roofer using out-of-date methods.
