oops. Good old Tri County Roofing. Even tho I got my first roofing job replacing their crap, I still lost out on the last 2 selling against them.

It is indeed amazing how the XXXX's of the world stay in business. I know roofers that goof stuff up regularly and have been doing so for decades. They strut around boasting about how they've been in the roofing business for 35 years and blah blah blah. I'm sorry but doing it wrong for 35 years doesn't impress me. :blink:

You have to wonder how XXXXXX stays in business and how she found him in the first place.

Honestly clover, I've done better than average on a couple of Ins. Jobs. That's it, a couple.

The Extactimate price bidding crowd are waaaaaaaay to cheep to begin with, which is why Ins./ Exactimate Prices looks like a gold mine to them.

Get this. I did a storm damaged roof yesterday that paid WAY more than I charge on a 5/12 35sq ranch. The guys insurance paid him for a "very good laminated" shingle. Too bad I bid the job without seeing the papers! He upgraded a bit and paid me the rest of the claim, still saving his deductible. That might be the first time I've ever "ate" a deductible.

Lack of money, that's the #1 or #2 reason for this Free Roof / Insurance Company babysitting madness Willie.

The other #1 or #2 reason, is of course GREED B)

She had called the insurance company out before hiring the other guy that did what you see in the 3 pics. They paid her $300 so I guess the claim was $1,300? :dry:

She didn't bother to call them this time and doesn't have the money. She asked me if the quote would still be good within 30 days because she had to acquire a loan in order to do it and that was for option A not the full roof. :dry:

I told an adjuster about 15-20 yrs. ago that they were turning into the maintenance company.

Now they have.

Oh well, one day the good folks of Indiana will wake up to $400 / month insurance premiums. Payable to their property maintenance, oops I mean insurance company :(

I don't even know why the insurance companies put on the front of challenging claims. The experts say a homeowner should set aside about 2% of the home's value each year to use for maintenance and replacement parts. Instead, they are sending that money to the insurance companies and perpetuating the racket.

Gettin' to be the same here natty.

Another option is to file a storm damage claim. If the insurance adjuster balks, contact a public adjuster.

Around here, you are a fool if you pay for your own roof.

She paid $XXxXXXXxxx for something. But it was certainly not to fix any kind of roof leak :laugh:
