The Best Roofers in Fairfax County VA Are the Ones Proven Safe To Hire The state of Virginia requires roofing contractors in Fairfax County VA to be licensed by the state with the correct license class for the cost of your project (Class C = less than $10,000, Class B = less than $120,000, Class A = no cost restriction), and the printed license for roofing companies must have at the bottom the three letter code for roofers, which is "ROC" for which they had to take an exam specific to roofing and demonstrate previous experience specifically in roofing.

But even the state license for roofing contractors is no guarantee that any particular roofer in Fairfax County VA is doing business ethically, providing real value, or satisfying customers.

How will the roofing companies calculate pricing for new roofs or roof repairs?

Will they provide a written estimate that specifices the exact amount of material to be used, including sizes, brand names, product numbers etc?

For new roofing or re-roofing, does their quote include replacing the flashings around chimneys and vents? Not doing so is one way that cheap roofing companies merely appear cheap.

What type of wood will be used on your roof and in what thickness? For example, using cheap plywood made from pine which is suseptible to warping is another way cheap roofers merely appear cheaper, as opposed to using plywood made from stronger Douglas fir.

Will they being using nails (proper) or instead using staples (cheaper and faster for them but lacks holding power and can invalidate a manufacturer's warranty)?
