Check for quality marks
Like many construction companies, roofing companies also have to meet strict requirements. When companies meet the requirements, this is rewarded with a seal of approval. Within the roofing industry, there are 6 recognised quality marks, which guarantee you quality and expertise:
| Keurmerk | Description |
|---|---|
| Vebidak | Guarantees the quality of roofing companies that install bituminous and plastic roofing. |
| KOMO | This quality mark guarantees that high-quality products are used. |
| Dumebo DWS | Industrial association for roofers and guarantees the quality of metal roofs |
| Roofmaster | Network of qualified roofers working with pitched roofs. |
| Roofmark | Guarantees the quality standards around flat roofs. |
Check the warranty conditions
Before you deal with a roofing company, it is wise to check how long you have a warranty on your roofing. On average, you have a 10-year guarantee on your roofing.
Inquire about insulation
Is your roof not yet fitted with roof insulation? Take this into account when roofers are working on your roof and kill two birds with one stone. With insulation, you save on your energy bill, because it keeps the heat in your house and it does not escape through your roof.
