Roofing scams are more common than many homeowners realize—especially after big storms when demand is high and trust can be low. Here’s what you should know to protect yourself and your home.

1. “Storm Chasers” Asking for Cash Upfront
If someone knocks on your door right after a storm offering to “fix your roof today” for cash, it’s a huge red flag. Legitimate roofing professionals never demand full payment before work begins.

2. No Local Address or License
Always verify that your roofer has a physical business address and is licensed in Florida. Scammers often vanish after collecting deposits.

3. Extremely Low Estimates
If the price seems too good to be true — it probably is. Low bids often mean poor-quality materials or hidden fees later.

4. Pressure to Sign Immediately
A reputable contractor will let you review the estimate and compare options. Scammers use urgency to get you to sign before you can think it over.

5. No Written Contract or Warranty
Always get a written contract with all details—materials, costs, and timelines. A lack of documentation almost always ends badly.
