What to Know About Door Knockers & Roofing Scams

Not All Door Knockers Are Looking Out for You

After a storm hits, it’s common to see roofing companies canvassing neighborhoods, knocking on doors, and pushing insurance claims. While not all of them are bad actors, many are playing a numbers game—and it can cost you.

The Problem with Door-to-Door Roof Claims

  • A door knocker shows up and says, “You’ve got hail damage.”
  • You file an insurance claim—without a proper inspection.
  • Insurance comes out and finds no legitimate storm damage.
  •  Now you’re stuck. Higher premiums. Maybe even policy cancellation.

In this video, our expert breaks it down:

  • Why quick assumptions lead to insurance trouble
  • What should be inspected before filing a claim
  • How to tell if a roofing company is trustworthy

Here’s How to Stay Protected

  • Only file a claim after a professional, on-roof inspection
  • Never take a door knocker’s word without proof
  • Vet your roofer through reviews, reputation, and credentials
  • Don’t risk being dropped by insurance or stuck with full costs
