McKinney Roofing Contractors 5 Day Moment of Truth

 

Importance of Experience

It’s important when looking for a McKinney roofing contractor that is experienced and can move fast. We received a phone call from a homeowner that needed an inspection on their house in McKinney as they were selling their home.

They called us out for inspection, and it indeed need a roof placement due to hail damage. I gave them our report and let them know it needed replacement. What the homeowner didn’t tell us they had already had their insurance company come out.

They asked how quickly we could re-roof the home and told them just about immediately but generally insurance is the biggest hold up as you must wait on the check. They let me know they already had the check, but one problem is they were closing on the house in less than five days and needed the roof replaced before then.

McKinney Roofing Contractors Crunch time

Let them know it shouldn’t be an issue to replace the roof in that timeframe but needed to make sure our roofing supplier had all the colors in stock that we needed. They indeed did and let them know we needed the shipment the next day.

We replaced both the roof and gutters in two days which allowed the homeowner to close on a very short window. They had their movers moving them out the day we were roofing the house. Talking about a lot of people moving around!

As a McKinney roofing contractor, you must be flexible and able to move quickly. Luckily the timing of everything matched up and we were able to help them close on their house efficiently. After they closed and moved out the buyer’s agent reached out as the new homeowner wanted a few older trim pieces painted.

House Closed!

Although it wasn’t part of the roofing system we went ahead and went out there and did the work for them. I didn’t’ want the previous homeowner any added stress as he was in process of moving his family to Chicago.

I wouldn’t recommend waiting until that short of a window of hiring a McKinney roofing contractor but sometimes you must work in tight time frames. The McKinney roof turned out to look great and the new homeowner was very happy with the result.
