Working with an experienced, skilled roofing contractor is crucial to the success of your roof replacement project. Since your new roof is an important investment, you need to carefully vet your roofer before hiring them. Read on as we discuss the importance of hiring a roofer with the right credentials.
Defining a Credentialed Roofer
For an average person, the terms “licensed” and “credentialed” are used interchangeably to refer to businesses that have the requirements to perform their trade. However, the terms have different meanings. Knowing the distinction between the two allows you to hire the right professional for the task at hand.
Roofers can be both licensed and credentialed. A license is a permit granted by an authority—usually the state, county, or city—to allow the contractor to perform roofing tasks. It must not be confused with a business license, which is given to an entity as proof of their eligibility to operate within their local area. Credentials are issued by a roofing manufacturer or other reliable issuing body after roofers complete specialized training courses.
