Often, these roofers are not licensed, bonded and insured and do not fulfill the quality of work they promise.

Top risks when hiring unlicensed, unbonded and uninsured contractors:
  • Limited legal action: You have limited legal actions against an unlicensed contractor and could result in expensive litigation in civil court. 
  • Injuries on your property: You could pay for any injuries they incur while working on your property if they do not have worker’s compensation insurance. 
  • Unfinished work: It could be difficult to be compensated for unfinished work if the contractor is not bonded.
  • Responsible for home damages: You may be responsible for paying for damages caused to your home by the uninsured roofer if they do not limited liability insurance.
  • Not meeting local building codes: You may have to redo the work down the road if the unlicensed contractor does not meet local building codes.
  • Low quality workmanship: Working with an unlicensed contractor could lead to low quality workmanship.
