Sign stating "scam alert" with a stormy background to indicate rain storm roofing scams are taking place

Beware Of Pearland Roofing Scams

As more homeowners consider getting a Pearland roof replacement as we approach spring, scammers are aware and looking for an easy way to take your money. In this article, we will offer advice on how to be mindful and protect yourself from scammers and questionable Houston roofers. 

Avoid Pushy Salespeople

Regardless of if you’re shopping for clothing, shoes, a car, or a new roof, nobody likes a pushy salesperson. Great salespeople put emphasis on forming relationships with prospects–not on the desperation to get a sale. If you come across a roofing company that tries to push you to purchase a Pearland roof replacement, we urge you to exercise caution. Keep in mind that pushy, questionable roofers will approach you first, so we recommend that, instead, you shop around and approach them instead. This way, you give yourself ample time to research and decide which roofer may best meet your needs.

If A Pearland Roofing Company Approaches You Right After A Storm, This Could Be A Red Flag

Similar to the first sign, this is a tactic some roofers use. While we certainly encourage you to get a Pearland roof inspection after a rain or hail storm, many scammers take advantage of this as a way to convince you that your home needs a complete Pearland roof replacement. Although this may seem legitimate, sometimes you really only need a few roof repairs for your roof to be sturdy and protective again.

Protecting Yourself From Houston Roofing Scams

Whether seemingly legitimate roofers offer some Pearland roof repairs or a roof replacement, the fact remains that there are plenty of scammers out there. Considering the importance of your roof, it’s critical that you find a reputable roofing company. You can do so by:

  • Taking the time to research different roofing companies by looking at their reviews on platforms such as Yelp, Google, and Facebook.
  • Seeing if the Houston roofing companies you’re looking for are certified. Roofing certifications are not easy for companies to achieve unless they are top-quality, so a legitimate one will proudly display their certifications on their website.
  • Letting trusted friends and family give you recommendations.
