Connect the exterior repair with the interior damage
Discuss the roof, wall or opening involved and the rooms below or beside it. A roof proposal and an interior proposal should use the same location record and make their responsibilities clear. Ask how concealed deck, insulation or wall conditions will be checked when relevant areas are opened.
Separate temporary protection from permanent work
Temporary roof protection and urgent loss response need a named provider and follow-up arrangement. Permanent construction should identify what will be repaired or replaced after the appropriate assessment and mitigation. Use safe observations and existing records; leave roof access and unstable areas to qualified personnel.
Choose repair boundaries and finishes
Review material availability, adjacent undamaged finishes and any owner-requested changes. State how additional findings will be priced and approved. If a claim is involved, give the insurer the construction record and request its coverage decisions separately.
What to compare in a written proposal
- Roof, exterior and interior scope tied to the same damage locations
- Temporary-protection provider and permanent-repair boundaries
- Concealed repairs, replacement materials and finish transitions
- Owner selections, change pricing and completion records
