4 Problems Homeowners Encounter When Hiring Storm Damage Contractors

Unfortunately, there are some storm damage contractors out there that, after a major storm in the Cypress, TX area, will come in and try to take advantage of homeowners with poor quality roof repairs or outright fraud. The best way to avoid this is to know what some of the red flags and problems might be that could indicate you are working with a less-than-trustworthy roofing repair company.

High-Pressure Sales Tactics

Having storm or hail damage in Cypress, TX can make you feel nervous and anxious about getting the roof repaired. The problem comes when a contractor is trying to pressure you into signing a contract or paying money upfront for storm damage repairs. Don’t let roofing repair contractors take advantage or scare you into hiring them immediately. If you’re getting pressured, it’s best to say no and move on to another contractor.

Out-of-Town or Out-of-State Contractors

Most of the time the repair contractors that are trying to drum up business and may not be completely honest are the ones that don’t have a local address or a local presence. If you work with a company that is locally owned and operated, they are part of the local community and (hopefully) don’t want to build a reputation for poor quality work or dishonesty. Someone coming in from another county or state is often there to make quick money and doesn’t care much about the reputation they leave behind.

Promises That Seem Too Good to Be True

As with most things in life, if your roofing contractor in Cypress, TX is making promises that sound a little too good to be true, they probably are. Unscrupulous contractors often advertise steep discounts or promise that everything will be covered by your insurance and you won’t pay a penny out of pocket, only to slap you with high fees and unforeseen expenses, or leave you alone to deal with an insurance provider that will not cover the costs of repairs.

Requests for Up-Front Payment

A reputable contractor should be able to provide you with services and then bill you after the job is done. In some cases, they may require a small deposit in advance, but if your contractor is telling you to pay most or all of the bill upfront, it’s either a sign that they plan to take the money and run, or that they are not a very stable company and need money upfront to pay for materials—neither of which is a good sign.

Make sure you only work with licensed, reputable, local Roofers In Cypress, TX for any storm repairs that you need.

Reviews From Our Customers

Brandon and Eldridge Roofing did a spectacular job! They were thorough and informative. The knowledge and experience that he had, was extensive and he was exquisitely professional! This was my first insurance claim for my house. He walked me through every step and let me know what to expect and/or anticipate. I would recommend to anyone who needs a knowledgeable and patient roofing company!

Michael was so thorough in explaining our options. He was nothing but professional. Everything happened as he explained it would. They did a wonderful job on our roof. And as Michael said, you couldn’t even tell they had been at our house and replaced a roof. Their clean up is remarkable. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I highly recommend Eldridge Roofing for your roofing needs!

Leasha Davis

Spring, Texas

We’re very pleased with our new roof & customer service from Mike Marriott, Ashely & the crew. The roof looks great and our seasoned adjuster even commented on the great quality materials & workmanship. The crew was fast and thoroughly cleaned up after themselves. After receiving quotes from several other roofing companies I am glad that we went with Eldridge and would highly recommend them.

Miranda Harris

Houston, Texas

Eldridge Roofing was recommended to me after I suspected my roof may have been damaged during a recent storm. Brandon Holland came out and thoroughly inspected every inch of my roof. He was able to clearly explain the problem and had a solution not far behind. The entire process from start to finish was exceptional. We will definitely be using Eldridge for any future issues or projects that may come up! Thanks again!

Sarah Grant

We discovered Eldridge Roofing from a neighbor and asked them to give us an estimate. We worked with Shannon who came as scheduled and worked efficiently with our insurance company to get us the best roof for the best price. He followed through with us every step of the way and we are very pleased with the quality, professionalism and complete honesty of Shannon and the rest of Eldridge staff. Highly Recommend!

Dorothy Chapman

I have used Eldridge Roofing at one our rent houses for a roof repair, and also a full internal repair from water damage from a burst pipe. At another rent house they replaced the whole roof and it was an hour and a half drive out of town for them. They also replaced the roof at my residence. Brandon the Project Manager is very professional and thorough. I highly recommend them.
