Hail storm chasers
The one thing that is more harmful that hail storm damage is unprincipled,
storm chasing contractors who will try to convince you that your roof is
damaged from hail even when that is not the case. These dishonest contractors
are known in the industry as “storm chasers.” They make money by following major
storms around the country and proposing to repair storm damaged roofs. Quite
often, their scam can be very convincing, but it actually takes years of training
to make a distinction between hail damage from common roof damage. The first
red flag is that most of these contractors will try to convince you that your
roof has been damaged without ever climbing onto the roof.
Take your time
The most effective tool that storm chasers use to trap homeowners is to
convince them that the work must be done quickly. The first line of defense is to
check out every contractor through the Better Business Bureau. Choose only the
highest rated roofing companies and it is best to hire only local contractors. Take
your time when it comes to choosing a roofing contractor. Never let anyone
pressure you into signing a contract before you have completely checked them
out. Even if your roof is hail damaged, a reputable contractor can take steps
that will buy you time and will not disrupt normal life.
