roofing prices in jackson ms

It never is a constant in storm susceptible states. The flow spikes then ebbs and flows. Every year there is the potential of an event. The Idea is not to lay back and pretend it isn't going to happen, because it will. If you look at your plan for the year it should contain an on going contingency to battle the Stormers before they show up and we know they will.

I remember the first time I dealt with a large storm in my area as the Contractor. I had worked numerous storms as a sub not having to deal with insurance or homeowner sales etc. but not as the Contractor. It was not a hail storm. It was 100 mph straight line winds. I had been roofing 16 years but had no idea what i was in for. All these different insurance companies telling their clients all these different contradictory things and them looking to me to solve the riddle. I leave an estimate for complete replacement and they would call back saying i need a quote for just the back half thats all my insurance is paying for. etc. etc. And insurance companies calling me, saying draw me a sketch of the roof with all the measurements and we "MAY" pay the claim. I had to go back for that too. ( No such thing as eagleview or the like at the time ). Homeowners asking me to give them 2 quotes. One real one and one with their deductible added. ( which I never did of course ) I saw roofs with 2 shingles missing get a full replacement paid while others with over 50% damage get only repairs paid. Yes, I made a lot of money from that storm but WHAT A PAIN IN THE FRIGGIN AZZ.

I guess I am just saying that it still possible to run a business with a different business model. I suppose the stormchasers are here to stay but I do not intend to become one of them.

It is obvious "you" don't care. :( This is what the contractors in MS are up against right now. If you are smart and understand the system you can recover more money. This is the base line. There are many extras that happen in a storm this size and magnitude. Belive me the " STORMIERS " know it. It is easy to stick your head in the sand. The stormiers are already here. Coming in with these prices solicitting in neighborhoods and stealing work from honest homegrown companies. If you care about your business, your communities and new or former customers it would be best for all concerned to pay attention.

I really don't give a crap what the "most trusted" software on roof replacement says the cost of roofing is.

In Two Thousand Thirteen they took a little trip, down the big ole river to Jackson Missisip. Well, we fired our guns but the stormers kept a comin, there wasn't as a many as there was a while ago. We fired once more and they began a runnin, down the mississipi toward Louisian O. They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles, they ran through the woods where the rabbits couldn't go. They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em. Down the mississippi toward LouisianO! :blink: :blush: :dry: :woohoo:

Back on February 20th, Bloomberg published a piece called "Why Should Taxpayers Give Big Banks $83 Billion a Year?" The piece cited new research (which backed up a previous study by Dean Baker and Travis McArthur a the Center for Economic and Policy Research) showing that the Too-Big-to-Fail status of certain big banks provides a massive silent subsidy. Because lenders know the government will never let companies like Chase or Goldman fail, they charge them less to borrow money. From the Bloomberg piece:

Lately, economists have tried to pin down exactly how much the subsidy lowers big banks' borrowing costs. In one relatively thorough effort, two researchers – Kenichi Ueda of the International Monetary Fund and Beatrice Weder di Mauro of the University of Mainz – put the number at about 0.8 percentage point. The discount applies to all their liabilities, including bonds and customer deposits.

Apply that 0.8 percent advantage to America's ten biggest banks, and you're talking about an annual subsidy of about $83 billion. As the Bloomberg writers noted, that's tantamount "to the government giving the banks about 3 cents of every tax dollar collected."

Is there just so much damage that pricing has increased for the short term?

Which insurers in mississippi would be paying that?

$275? That's as much, usually more than the sub-contractor rates most of the morons are giving away work for up north.
