If the pitch starts with what insurance will pay instead of what your roof needs, you've met a salesman, not a roofer. The tells are consistent: no straight price, pressure to sign at the door, and insurance that turns out to have exclusions.
The field guide to not getting taken. How storm chasers work, what the 'insurance covers everything' pitch is really doing, why some roofers won't name a price, and how to find out if a roofer's insurance actually covers the work on your house.
A license is 'do not pass go,' not proof of skill, and certifications can be volume-based. The real tells are the questions a roofer can answer, the specifics in the bid, and whether they teach or pitch.
After a storm, the order of operations matters: document, get a real assessment, and never sign with whoever knocks first. Insurance covers storm damage, not wear, and shingle wind warranties quietly stop at 15 years.
We're here to see what's going on with your roof. A real assessment starts with your history and your attic, not a number from the driveway. You'll get a straight answer about what's up there, what it needs, and what it costs. Sometimes the honest answer is: your roof looks great.
