Existing damage may be discovered
Deteriorated wood or other concealed conditions may become more apparent during tear-off.
Clarify what the roofing scope includes
Ask whether fascia or soffit work is included, excluded, or priced separately.
Ventilation may involve the soffit
Some attic ventilation systems use soffit intake vents. Ask how existing intake ventilation will be evaluated when relevant.
Agree on change procedures
If additional edge repairs become necessary, the contract should explain how they will be documented, priced, and approved.
