Roofers don't roof because they like doing paperwork. They just roof. Most will buy the materials and make a markup on it, and many won't bid a job if they think 10 other guys are also bidding.
Ask your neighbors who did their roofs, and call one of those guys. Point out they were recommended, and ask what it will cost. Roofers know how to roof, you don't have to tell a good roofer how to do his job. Yes, you get to pick the roofing.
Every contractor loves referrals. It makes them feel like they have an in. Don't under any circumstances mention other contractors. It is the kiss of death.
