Roofing Scams In Florida – Beware!
There are many things as a homeowner to be weary of such as roof scam schemes, which are driving the costs through the roof- no pun intended! If you see a “free roof” it’s more than likely too good to be true. Here’s what you need to know:
If someone approaches your home offering kick-back or rebate for you to file a roof claim, please reach out immediately to fraudfreelforida.com. This is a scam. If anyone promises you a new roof without paying the required deductible, this is an insurance fraud scheme. You should never sign anything regarding your insurance without contacting your insurance company. If someone was truly looking out for your best interest they would provide an estimate on repair costs to the roof. They would also advise you to review your current policy and if you have questions to reach to your insurance provider.
Common Repairs would include tile replacement, fascia, asphalt, plywood. Any leaks or issues compromising your roof after a storm should always be inspected by a licensed roofing company. Check Sunbiz.org or the DBPR [Department of Business and Professional Regulation] to be sure that the contractor is licensed and insured in the state of Florida.
