A Simi Valley roofing company who will not put the assembly in writing is not quoting the same job as the one who will. That is as true in Simi Valley as anywhere in Ventura County. Realistically, itemised scope, written price and a written warranty are the minimum on any Simi Valley job. Check the CSLB licence number in advance of any Simi Valley roofing company starts, and confirm liability cover and workers' compensation are current.
