The advantage of a roof repair contractor whose work is concentrated in the Charlotte, NC area is that a local contractor depends on two things: good word of mouth and repeat business. In addition, a smaller company gives you an opportunity to talk to whoever is in charge. Get the names of as many local roofing companies as you can, asking your friends and neighbors for recommendations. Check those names at www.nclbgc.org, the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors website, to make sure the contractor has a license. Find out about their insurance and workmen’s compensation.
