Real example from a Michigan job
A Grand Rapids homeowner's quote listed 41 squares for a verified 32.4-square roof. At $399/sq installed, those extra 8.6 squares were $3,431 in overcharging. One question. The contractor revised. $3,431 saved.

5 contractor questions + glossary
5 questions to ask — and what the right answers sound like
Plain-English glossary so every term on any bid makes sense
The one question you must ask
"How will ventilation be handled or improved during this roofing project?"

Most homeowners focus on shingles and cost. Ventilation is what determines how long your roof actually lasts. Poor ventilation traps heat and moisture — leading to mold, higher energy bills, and premature roof failure. In Michigan, it also causes ice dams in winter.

Follow up with: "Will you evaluate my current intake and exhaust ventilation — soffits, ridge vents — and recommend improvements?" Many roofers only replace what's visible unless you ask.

Story — awaiting written review

I had a quote for $18,200. The report showed my roof was 31 squares, not the 38 the contractor listed. I brought it up. They revised to $14,900. I couldn't believe it was that easy.

Straight answers.

Do I need a contractor quote first?

It's better to get the report before you call anyone. When you do call, you'll understand the language they're using and how it applies to your pocket. You'll know what they're talking about — and whether what they're telling you is accurate.

How accurate are the measurements?

>98% accurate. The measurements are accepted by mortgage institutions, agencies including HUD, and major insurance carriers. You can use them to collect insurance and get work done.

Will this tell me if my contractor is overcharging me?

No — it will show you. You compare this report to what they're telling you and you'll know if what they're saying is true. You can hand this report to your contractor and get an accurate estimate for your roof.

Are you going to sell my information to contractors?

No. When you order the report, you're our client and we have a fiduciary obligation to you. Your information is not for sale.

How fast do I get my report?

If we tell you tomorrow but deliver today — would that be okay? Most reports are delivered same day. Always within one business day.

Does this cover all of Michigan?

Yes.

What's the difference between the roof reports?

The standard Roof Report ($50) covers measurements, Michigan pricing, your fair estimate range, a red flag checklist, and contractor questions. The Premium Roof Report ($99) adds enhanced material ordering accuracy for verifying a contractor's material takeoff quantity by quantity.

What if there's an error in my report?

Measurement accuracy is guaranteed. If we made an error, we fix it. No runaround.

What if I don't find the report useful?

Email us within 30 days of your order. We'll review it with you and make it right — whether that's walking you through the numbers together, running an additional analysis, or issuing a refund. We're not going to fight you over $50.

How do I get help with my report?

Email us with your order number and we'll get back to you. If you're unsure how to use the numbers in your report, we'll walk you through it. If you feel you didn't get value within 30 days, say so — we'll make it right.
