Define the work area
The scope should make clear which slopes, roof sections or repair zones are included and what work will remain untouched.
- Exact roof areas
- Tear-off or overlay approach
- Included penetrations and transitions
Name the system components
Product categories and accessory details should be specific enough that you understand what is being installed.
- Decking allowance or unit price
- Underlayment and water protection
- Edges, starter, flashing and ventilation
Put protections and terms in writing
Cleanup, property protection, payment stages, change conditions and warranty terms should be written—not assumed from a conversation.
- Debris and magnetic cleanup
- Protection for siding, landscaping and driveways
- Exclusions, changes and written warranty coverage
