Step 1 of 6

What best describes your home?

Different buildings need different crews, so this is the first thing a roofer asks.

Free, and no obligation to anyone.

Right now: a waiting list

No provider in your area is taking requests through this service yet. Requests made now are kept by us and given to no company. When a provider covering your area can take yours on, we email you once and ask whether you want that company, by name, to contact you. If you do not say yes within 90 days of your request, your contact details are deleted.

How it works

The whole thing is a form and a routing rule. What happens after it is contractors, on the phone, today.

Describe the job

Three short questions, all multiple choice. It takes about as long as reading this sentence twice.

It goes to local crews

We route it to roofing companies covering your ZIP — the ones who do this kind of work, not whoever paid the most.

We keep it until someone can help

Nobody gets your details yet. When a provider covering your area can take it on, we email you once and you decide.

It costs you nothing. The contractors pay for the introduction. There is no bill at any point.

Before you start

How long should a roof last here?

An architectural asphalt roof is rated for twenty-five to thirty years and, in this climate, tends to land at the lower end of that. Tile and metal go much further, provided what is underneath them is maintained.

It is leaking right now. What do I do?

Move what you can out of the way, put a bucket under it, and if there is a bulge in the ceiling put a small hole at its lowest point to let the water out in one place rather than bringing the whole panel down. Then mark your request as an emergency — those go out first.

How quickly will someone call?

Most requests are picked up the same day, often within an hour. Emergencies are prioritised. If you have not heard anything by the next morning, check voicemail — contractors usually call from a mobile.

Can I stay in the house while it is done?

Yes, though it is loud, and things will fall off shelves in the garage. Move cars out of the driveway and take anything fragile off the walls of the top floor.

How long does a re-roof take?

A straightforward asphalt roof on an average house is one to three days. Tile, slate and complex rooflines take longer, and weather stops work more often than anything else.

Are you a roofing company?

No, and it matters that we say so. We are a referral service, not a contractor. The roofing work, the licence, the insurance and the warranty all sit with the independent company you choose.

Why bother with the middle step

It costs you nothing

Contractors pay for introductions. You pay nothing at any point, and we would rather say that plainly than bury it.

The search results are an auction

The top of a search page is whoever bid most this morning, not whoever is nearest or best. Being first in an advert says nothing about the roof.

You stay in control

You hire the contractor directly, on your terms. We are not a party to the contract and we take no cut of the job.
