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.

Life in Montana's mountainous western area differs greatly from that on its eastern plains. Across the eastern half of the state stretch broad sections of the Great Plains, drained by the Missouri River, which originates in SW Montana, and by its tributaries, the Milk, the Marias, the Sun, and especially the Yellowstone. Much of Montana's western boundary is marked by the crest of the lofty Bitterroot Range, part of the Rocky Mts., which dominate the western section of the state and along which runs the Continental Divide. Montana's very name is derived from the Spanish word montaña, meaning mountain country.
