How to Avoid Roofing Scams: A Homeowner's Guide to Storm Chasers
Short Answer: Most roofing scams start with a storm chaser at your door, a contractor who shows up uninvited after severe weather and pressures homeowners to sign on the spot. The best way to avoid one is to slow down, verify the contractor’s license, insurance, and online reviews on your own, and get a second opinion before agreeing to any work. A reputable local roofing company will have a real address, a community track record, and no problem giving you time to make an informed decision.
