To combine quality and value in your roofing project, keep the following tips in mind:
Get several estimates. Ask for references. Get addresses for completed projects then drive by and inspect the work. Make sure shingles are straight, aligned, and trimmed cleanly and neatly. Not confident about evaluating the project yourself? Recruit a friend who has been through a roofing project. Verify references. Find out if the homeowner would hire the roofer again. Find out if they have any problems with quality of the work or in dealing with the roofer. Did he honor his estimate, pick up nails, and replace damaged plantings?
Before you sign an agreement, read the contract. Make sure that the warranty is for a period of at least one year and that it covers leaks, flashing failure, and any labor-related defects. Make sure the materials specified in the estimate are reflected in the contract. If you have questions or doubts, ask the roofer to clarify them. Negotiate to satisfy both of you. The complete scope of work should be detailed and provision for additional charges should be specified. Make sure the roofer is licensed and insured. Obtain copies of licensing and insurance.

Almost rectangular in shape and mostly part of the Great Plains, Kansas is famous for its seemingly endless fields of ripe golden wheat. The land rises more than 3,000 ft (914 m) from the eastern alluvial prairies of Kansas to its western semiarid high plains, which stretch toward the foothills of the Rocky Mts. The rise is so gradual, however, that it is imperceptible, although the terrains of the east and the west are markedly different. The state is drained by the Kansas and Arkansas rivers, both of which generally run from west to east.
