What we check before a roofer goes on the list
Every shop runs the same four-part screen, in the same order. If a step doesn’t clear, the roofer doesn’t go up.
It’s editorial coverage, not a marketplace. Nobody pays to be on the list, nobody pays to rank higher.
- Online reputation, across platforms not just one
Google, Yelp, and Facebook read together. Cross-platform shape — velocity, language, response — outweighs any single star count. Consistency over years matters more than volume.
- Tenure in market, at a verifiable address
Years operating under the same name at the same address. Years-under-current-owner is the cleanest proxy for whether a contractor will still exist in five years to honor a warranty.
- Warranty offered, in writing
Manufacturer-backed warranties through audited programs (Golden Pledge, System Protection, SureStart) outweigh in-house promises by an order of magnitude.
- A phone call with the owner
Thirty minutes with the person whose name is on the truck. Crews, suppliers, jobs gone wrong, COI on file. If we can't reach them, the screen stays incomplete and we say so on the page.
