**The Cost of a Cheap Roof**



## **Video Transcript**– The Cost of A Cheap Roof 

Sometimes the cheap roof ends up being the most expensive. Over the last 20 years, I’ve seen it more times than I can count. A homeowner chooses the lowest bid, a price that seems like an amazing deal, and a few months later after the install, the leaks start.

Water stains on the ceiling, buckled drywall, warped hardwood floors. And by the time they realize what’s happening, the contractor’s already stopped answering the phone. That cheap roof has turned into thousands of dollars in damage to their home.

One homeowner told me how they saved a few thousand bucks upfront by hiring the cheapest option, and it cost them over $12,000 to clean up the mess. The situation was so bad that within a year they ended up replacing that brand new roof.

Don’t let that happen to you. At AIC Roofing, we may not be the lowest price, but we do it right the first time. Thanks to our proven and systemized processes, you’ll get a roof that will protect your home for decades. That’s why we’re able to offer a 30-year labor and material warranty on every roof we install.

Because the only thing more expensive than a good roof is a cheap one.
