How to Hire a Contractor – Urbach Roofing, Inc.
Choosing the right contractor is one of the most important steps in protecting your home or business. At Urbach Roofing, Inc., we believe every customer should have the knowledge and confidence to make the best decision — whether you’re installing a new roof or looking for affordable roofing in San Diego County.
With over 50 years as trusted San Diego roofing contractors, we’ve built our reputation on integrity, craftsmanship, and exceptional service. Here’s what to look for when selecting a contractor, and why Urbach Roofing meets every standard.
Permanent Place of Business
A reputable San Diego roofing contractor should have a permanent, established office. This ensures accountability and stability throughout your project and for years after its completion. Having a physical location allows our clients to easily reach us if they have any questions or concerns. Urbach Roofing, Inc. operates from our San Marcos location, proudly serving all of San Diego County with a dedicated full-time staff. Our office is always standing by to provide ongoing support and reliable service, long after your roofing project is finished.
Proper Insurance Coverage
Every contractor should carry both worker’s compensation and general liability insurance. This helps protect you against potential accidents or damage during the project, giving you peace of mind as work progresses. Proper insurance coverage is not just a legal requirement; it is a crucial safety net for both the contractor and the homeowner. We provide copies of our policies with every roofing contract for your records, ensuring transparency and reinforcing our commitment to your safety and satisfaction throughout the roofing process.
Licensing & Professional Memberships
Always verify that your contractor holds a valid license and is in good standing with industry associations. This not only confirms their legitimacy but also indicates a commitment to industry standards and ethical practices. Urbach Roofing is a licensed California contractor (#602378) and has been an active member of the San Diego Roofing Contractors Association (SDRCA) since 1986.
Our founder, Roger Urbach, has served as director, president, and past president, underscoring our deep-rooted commitment to excellence and leadership within the roofing community.
Established Track Record
The number of years in business is a strong indicator of reliability. Many claim “years of experience,” but documentation matters. A proven track record demonstrates a contractor's ability to deliver quality work consistently over time. We’ve been operating since 1979, completing thousands of successful projects across the county, which showcases our expertise and reliability. Our long-standing presence in the industry reflects our dedication to customer satisfaction and quality craftsmanship.
Complaint Resolution & References
A dependable contractor will handle concerns professionally and provide references upon request. This transparency is vital for building trust and confidence in your chosen contractor. Urbach Roofing offers references for all types of roofing systems and services—from minor repairs to complete roof replacements. Our happy clients are our best advocates, and we encourage potential customers to reach out to them for firsthand accounts of our quality and service.
Detailed Written Contracts
All project details, from scope of work to materials used, should be in writing. Avoid vague proposals or incomplete pricing, as these can lead to misunderstandings and disputes. A comprehensive contract protects both parties and sets clear expectations. We ensure every contract clearly outlines what will be done, what materials will be used, and transparent pricing, providing you with a solid framework for your roofing project and peace of mind throughout the process.
