We'll tell you if the quote is fair. Even if that means you use someone else.
When a Quote Doesn't Sit Right
A roofer came out. Maybe they knocked on your door after a storm. Maybe you called them. They walked the roof, came down, and handed you a number. And something about it didn't sit right. The price felt high. The pitch felt fast. You got told the whole roof needs to go, today, and the discount only holds if you sign now.
That feeling you have is worth listening to. Roofing is one of the biggest repairs a house ever needs, and most homeowners only deal with it once or twice in their life. You have no way to know if the quote is fair, if the damage is real, or if half of what's on that estimate even needs doing. That's not a knowledge gap you should feel bad about. It's just not your trade.
The honest move when a number feels off is the same as it is with a doctor. You get a second opinion. Not because the first roofer is automatically wrong, but because one look should never cost you twenty or thirty thousand dollars without a way to check it.
How the Second Opinion Works
Why Ask ERP for the Second Look
Want a Ballpark Before You Even Call?
If you'd like a rough number in hand before anyone climbs a ladder, use our satellite roof estimator. It measures your roof from above and gives you an instant ballpark range for a replacement. It takes about a minute and you don't have to talk to anyone.
It won't replace a real inspection, and it won't catch hidden damage. But it gives you a reference point. If the quote you already have is wildly higher than the estimator's range, that's a sign a closer look is worth your time.
Common Questions
No. The inspection and the written estimate are free for homeowners in our coverage area. There's no obligation to hire us afterward.
Then we'll tell you that. If the other company priced the job right and the work is genuinely needed, you'll hear it from us straight. A second opinion that confirms the first one is still worth having. Now you can hire with confidence.
No. You're not signing anything by asking us to look. Some homeowners use our estimate to negotiate with the first company. Some go with us. Some find out their roof is fine and do nothing. All of those are fine outcomes.
Usually within the same week. If you're under pressure to make a decision on another quote, tell us when you call and we'll work around your timeline.
If you have the written quote from the other company, have it handy. It helps us compare line by line. If it's an insurance claim, the adjuster's scope or estimate is useful too. If you don't have paperwork, that's fine, we can still inspect and give you our own assessment.
