Roofing contracts are binding, just as any other type of contract. However, that doesn’t mean a roofer can abuse of this fact while they are working on your home.
Of course, it’s important to know all the details before you sign your contract. There may be clauses as to what the cancellation terms of the contract are and when you can safely choose to cancel the contract. Usually, that applies to the “cool off” rule to cancel your contract within 72 hours depending on certain terms and details, and it also applies to instances when there is a breach of contract – for instance, if the roofer asks for more money than what is specified in the contract as their right.
The rule of thumb here is that not all contracts are the same, and with roofing costs being quite high for a complete roof replacement, you have to think very carefully before you put your signature on the contract and shake on it. Make sure you understand it first, and that you also have a firm grasp of the ramifications related to the insurance aspect of what the contract might entail.
