Fair Comparison
Scope-of-Work Bid vs. the Cheapest Bid
If you got three bids and one is 30% below the others, this page is for you. There are only a handful of ways a roofer gets that low — and a written scope of work exposes every one of them.
Dimension
Roof Doctor NM
Whoever's cheapest
Thinner underlayment (15# felt vs synthetic)

Architectural default in scope

Bottom line
The cheapest bid is only cheap if you don't read the scope. Ask any low bidder to bid our written scope line-for-line — if they can't, that's the answer.
