When it comes to hiring a contractor for your roofing project, how do you decide who to hire, how much you should pay, or what system is right for your roof? It feels like everyone is out to make a sale, not keep you protected. You understand roofing systems are complicated, but who should you trust? Alliance Consulting & Testing is an independent roofing expert. We're all about education and integrity. We aren't looking to sell you roofing materials or a roofing system. Instead, we offer independent, honest answers that you need to make an informed decision about your roof.
As a building owner or owner's rep, you have enough on your plate. Does your roof need to be one more problem? Understanding what condition your roof is in, the extent of repair work needed, and knowing what the useful service life of your roof is can help you plan for the future. Making an informed decision about roof repair or replacement work can save you time and money in the long-term. Not every roof needs to be replaced. Making necessary repairs can extend the useful service life of your roof and defer replacement.
Are you unsure whether your roofer is giving you the right answers? Does it feel like they might have ulterior motives? We are unbiased roof experts who do not sell or install roofing products, and we are not owned by anyone who does. Our only service is giving you the answers you need to make the decisions about your roof. You know your roof needs to be replaced, but you have three quotes that don't make any sense. It is a confusing situation, as well as an expensive one. Having a trusted advisor to guide you through inspection, evaluation, and replacement of your roof can take the anxiety out of the process.
We're roofing experts and we do not sell or install roofing systems. It means we provide independent, third-party information. From roof inspections to roof replacement oversight, we're here to make sure your roofing system is what it should be. The Alliance Consulting & Testing team brings a wealth of knowledge to every project we're a part of and because we put people first, we can take the stress out of your roofing and building envelope challenges. We'll give you all the tools you need to make the right decision about how to move forward.
When it comes to your insurance claims, storm damage is big business. Determining the building components impacted by the storm can be difficult to identify. Contractor estimates can be unreliable, exaggerated, and based on biased information. While inaccurate settlements can cost time, money, and brand perception, Alliance Consulting & Testing remains a true independent construction consultant. We can identify storm-related damage and provide site verification and documentation, including roofing system and building envelope components.
When your building's envelope has leaks allowing the elements to penetrate interior systems, the efficiency and performance of your building becomes compromised. These leaks can occur in your roof, exterior walls, doors, windows, and other building penetrations. Various contractors tend to be focused on their area of expertise versus taking a comprehensive approach to see how the performance building components are affecting each other. The building envelope is a general term to describe the multiple building systems that separate the exterior of the building from the interior of the building.
Understanding your roof is a major part of maintaining the system's integrity. At Alliance Consulting & Testing we're educators at heart. We teach customers what they need to know about their roofing system, so they can make better, more informed decisions. Our roofing expertise is extensive and covers every system. All roofing systems are designed to withstand weather. The question is: at what point does weather impact the roofing system? We are well-versed in the published criteria for roofing system performance and physical damage definitions.
When it comes to getting the quality installation you need for your roof, few tools will help you more than roof specifications written by independent experts. These documents allow quality-proven contractors to competitively bid your project. Relying on price point alone when hiring a roofing contractor can result in a roof that is more costly to maintain, has a shorter life expectancy, and reduces your return on investment. The first step in the roof replacement process is to inspect your current roofing system to understand what you have and what is needed.
A roofing system is comprised of different types of materials that work together to maintain the roof and building's integrity. When these materials aren't installed properly, you could end up with costly repairs or, worse, needing to replace the system long before you should have to. Relying on a contractor should be a safe bet, but not all contractors are looking out for your best interest. Some of them are only focused on selling you a new roof at the lowest cost to them. You need an expert who can monitor the proper installation of your roofing system.
Our team strives for an unparalleled customer experience that stems from strong positive communications. This will be true in all of our work, from the very first interaction to the reports clients receive at the close of a project. For both roof inspections and leak analysis, we view Alliance as a valuable partner in this process. They are both knowledgeable and responsive. More importantly, because they are a consultant and not a contractor, we are confident their recommendations are based on what is most beneficial to the property owner.
