How it works

How Roof Repair Line works

Roof Repair Line is a referral service. It helps homeowners with urgent residential roof problems reach independent roofing companies by phone. Here’s exactly who does what.

Roles

Who does what

Three parties are involved when the phone line is active.

Roof Repair Line

  • Publishes information to help homeowners understand roof problems and stay safe
  • Displays a phone number for reaching participating roofing companies
  • Does not inspect, quote, schedule, or repair roofs
  • Does not employ roofers or supervise their work

The call-routing service

  • A third-party phone platform handles calls to the number
  • It directs calls to participating independent roofing companies, when one is available
  • Availability depends on location, time, and which companies are taking calls

The independent roofer

  • Talks with you about the problem and arranges any visit
  • Inspects the roof and explains findings and options
  • Sets prices, provides estimates and contracts, and does any work you agree to
  • Is responsible for its licensing, insurance, and workmanship

The call

What happens when you call

  1. You call the number on the site

    Calls go through the call-routing service.

  2. Your call is routed

    If a participating roofing company is available for your area, your call is connected to that company.

  3. You talk with the roofing company directly

    Describe the problem, ask about timing and how they work, and decide whether to schedule a visit.

There’s no guarantee that a company will be available, how quickly anyone can come out, or the outcome of any work. If no one is available, you’re free to contact any roofer you choose.

Does it cost anything?

There’s no charge to you for the referral. Roof Repair Line may be paid by participating companies or partners for calls. If you hire a roofer, you pay that company directly at a price you agree on with them.

You stay in control

  • You’re never obligated to hire the company you’re connected with
  • Ask for a written scope of work, price, and contract before work begins
  • Verify the contractor’s license and insurance where your state or city requires it
  • Read the hiring tips before signing anything after a storm

Ready when you are
