Prepare For Your Home Improvement Project

Please understand that during your home improvement project your home will become a temporary construction site. Listed below are some helpful hints and requirements to help us do our job efficiently and without hassle to you.

For their safety, children and pets should be kept away from work areas during your home improvement and construction project.

Please park all autos on the street, allowing us access to your driveway for trucks, tools and project materials (garage and driveway access should be returned to each evening).

Please help provide our construction crews with access to electrical outlets (for power tools) and a garden hose (for a detailed clean up).

To protect lawn and patio furniture, please move these items to create a perimeter of twenty feet around your home. This will also allow an efficient and safe work area.

Please take down all (interior/exterior) pictures, clocks and hanging items, as they could fall during the more intense phases of your home improvement project.

If we are removing wood shingles on your home there will be derbies that will fall in the attic. If you have anything stored in the attic you will need to cover it with tarps or plastic. Take caution when opening your attic access for the first time. Open without looking up.

As we will not always have access to the interior of your home, we ask that you please check electrical circuit box often to make sure that no breakers have been tripped. Also check to see if any exhaust flu connections have become dislodged from the furnace, water heater or dryer.

Please conduct a brief inspection to see if there are any electric wiring or air conditioning return lines installed near the roof sheathing. If there is, it must be diverted to insure that roofing and decking fasteners penetrating the roof substructure will not damage the wiring or lines.

After the completion of your home improvement project please take precautions when mowing your lawn or using the driveway for the first few times. Although we try, we cannot insure there are no stray nails lurking unforeseen.

If you should have any questions fell free to contact us at the numbers below...and... Thank you for choosing AT Roofing & Construction Co.

MAKING THE RIGHT ROOFING DECISION

WITH THE RECENT HAIL STORM IN YOUR AREA, THERE WILL BE A NUMBER OF ROOFING CONTRACTORS YOU MAY CHOOSE FROM. FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE RULES TO AVOID A DISASTER.

1. Call the Better Business Bureau (OKC 405-239-608 or Tulsa 918-492-1266), give the name and address of contractor to check their status or follow the link at the bottom of our homepage: www.atroofing.net

2. The contractor should have workers comp and general liability insurance. Insurance certificates must be sent directly from the carrier. Do not accept a copy of the certificate from a contractor.
3. Hand-nailed corrosive resistant hot-dipped roof nail is the only way we do roofs. In order to meet manufacturers specifications, you must use corrosive resistant nails. EG (electro-galvanized) roofing nails do not meet manufacturers specs and are not corrosive resistant.
4. Ask the contractor for a list of references and look at homes they have completed.

AT Roofing & Construction Co., is a certified applicator and uses a complete roofing system--all components match and are compatible. This allows us to offer extended warranties.

If the offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

On all laminated roofs, we include GAF-ELK high definition shingles, GAF-ELK shingle mate felt, ice and water shield, where needed, high profile ridge, w-valley, new plumbing pipe flashings and paint all penetrations. Other companies may use lesser grade ridge, felt, flashings, etc. in order to cut costs.

Make sure you can find your contractor, even after the job is completed. Check the OKC Yellow Pages and Better Business Bureau.

Never give any contractor money upfront.
