🏠 Sometimes the value we bring isn’t just what’s on the roof.
Recently, a real estate client reached out about a property being purchased to become a school. During our inspection, we noticed storm damage and suggested the seller file an insurance claim.
We were later asked to provide a roofing estimate. When updating our numbers, something didn’t add up. After digging deeper, we discovered the seller had quietly filed the claim behind everyone’s back—and it had already been approved.
The plan? Have the buyer pay for the roof out of pocket while keeping the insurance proceeds.
Because we caught it, our client was able to recover nearly $20,000 that rightfully belonged with the property transaction.
That’s $20,000 that can now be invested into the future school instead of disappearing.
At Customer First Roofing, we don’t just inspect roofs. We help protect homeowners, buyers, sellers, realtors, and investors from costly surprises.
Sometimes the most valuable thing we find isn’t storm damage—it’s the truth.
