Frequently Asked Questions About Preparing for Roof Replacement
Do I need to be home during my roof replacement?
You do not need to be home, but it is recommended for at least part of the project start day so Ranger Roofing can walk you through the scope, answer questions, and confirm material details. You should also be available by phone.
How early will Ranger Roofing's crew arrive for a roof replacement?
Ranger Roofing's crews typically arrive at or before 7:00 AM to maximize daylight hours, especially important during Florida's summer months when afternoon thunderstorms are common. You will be given advance notice of the start date and time.
