Make sure the Maricopa permit is filed under your name and address; contractors who pull permits under their own name leave you without recourse if inspections fail.

What should a desert-climate roofing quote in Maricopa include?
Maricopa quotes should list tear-off, underlayment (reflective preferred), flashing, drip edge, starter strip, ridge cap, decking inspection, disposal/cleanup, and the permit.

Push back if a Maricopa contractor's quote skips any of these — missing line items in the bid usually surface as change orders during the job.
