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
