Roofing Contractor Recommendations Buffalo, NY

[Connor Smith]

Hello,

I am looking at purchasing a property in downtown buffalo and got some quotes on replacing the roof. The roof is 25 square, with a single pitch down the middle so nothing crazy. I just got a quote for a complete tear off of 2 layers and new 30 year shingles. The quote was 17,500 which seems quite high. Anyone have any suggestions for roofing contractors in Buffalo? How much do you usually pay per square?

I use to work for GAF and the best contractors we had were called Master Elite Contarctors. You can get a complete list of the ones on your area if you go to GAF.COM and search under the property owners tab. There's a place to put your zip code in and the local Master elites in your area will populate and you can read their reviews and check them out before deciding if you want to call anyone on the list. It's extremely helpful for homeowners looking for a good trusted contractor. Also, check with local roofing distributors and ask who they would recommend. Make price your last priority or it could end up costing you way more in problems by hiring the guy that does a bad job and exposes you to more liability.
