Seven checkpoints. Every booked roofing appointment clears all seven before it reaches a contractor, and a second person reviews it before release. Anything that fails is fixed, rebooked or dropped. This page exists so you can hold us to it.
Book a Strategy CallMost companies describe a process. This one is written down, checkpoint by checkpoint, so you can hold us to it. An appointment that fails any checkpoint is fixed, rebooked or dropped before your estimator ever sees it.
The rep confirms they are speaking to a person who owns the property, by name, and that the name matches the address on the record. Renters, tenants and adult children calling about a parent's house are not booked as owner appointments. Where a spouse or co-owner is on title, we note it so your estimator knows who else signs.
Fails when: Renter, tenant, or a caller who cannot confirm ownership.
Every appointment is checked against the zip list and drive radius you approved at kickoff. If the address sits outside your area we do not book it, we do not pass it to you as a courtesy, and we do not sell it to another roofer in the same market.
Fails when: Address outside your approved zips or drive time.
Approximate roof age, roof type where the homeowner knows it, and the actual reason they want a quote: a leak, a storm, a failed inspection, an insurance letter, a real estate transaction, or a planned replacement. Written in the homeowner's words, not a dropdown, so your estimator reads the real situation before knocking.
Fails when: No stated reason, or pure price shopping with no roof issue.
We ask directly whether anyone else is involved in the decision, and if so we book a window when that person is also home. For commercial and property manager appointments we confirm the contact's authority to approve an inspection and who signs off on scope.
Fails when: Decision maker unavailable at the proposed time.
Not a vague day. A specific date and window, agreed out loud, then read back to the homeowner with the contractor's company name and what will happen on site. The read-back is where most soft appointments fall apart, which is exactly why we do it before booking rather than after.
Fails when: Homeowner will not commit to a specific window.
The appointment lands on your calendar with a unique reference ID, the qualification notes attached, and confirmation sent to the homeowner. That ID is how both sides talk about the same appointment later, including reschedules, no-shows and outcome reporting.
Fails when: Invite not accepted by the calendar, or a duplicate of an existing booking.
A second person reviews the recording or notes against checkpoints one through six before the appointment is released to you. Anything that fails is fixed, rebooked, or dropped. You see the appointment after QA, not before, which is why fewer appointments reach you than we set.
Fails when: Any earlier checkpoint unmet on review.
If an appointment fails any of these seven checkpoints, it is replaced at no charge.
"Shown" means the inspection actually happened. The decision maker was there, your inspector got on the roof, and it was not a no-show. We do not count appointments that were merely booked.
Every appointment meets all seven checkpoints of the Appointment Standard. Any appointment that fails a checkpoint is replaced at no charge.
If we miss the weekly number, we keep calling at no additional cost until you are there.
Month to month. No long term contract.
Every appointment setting company says its appointments are qualified. Almost none of them will tell you what qualified means, what gets rejected, or who checks. That vagueness is convenient for the seller and expensive for the contractor, because the cost of a bad appointment is not the fee, it is a two hour round trip your estimator will never get back.
So the standard is published. Each checkpoint names the specific failure it exists to prevent: a renter, an out of area address, a homeowner with no real roof issue, a missing co-owner, a vague day instead of a time window, a calendar invite nobody accepted, and a booking nobody reviewed. If an appointment reaches you that failed one of them, you have a written thing to point at, and we have a process to fix.
The practical consequence is that we release fewer appointments than we set. That is the intended tradeoff. A calendar full of appointments that clear seven checkpoints is worth more than a longer list that clears none.
The seven checkpoints are constant. What changes is the detail captured at checkpoints three and four, because a storm inspection, an insurance claim visit and a commercial roof assessment are not the same appointment.
What a booked storm damage roofing appointment involves, what the homeowner has already agreed to before you arrive, what your estimator should bring, and how fast these have to be run after an event.
Booked insurance claim roofing appointments: what the homeowner has already agreed to, what documentation your estimator needs on site, adjuster meeting timing, and how these differ from storm damage inspections.
Booked roof replacement appointments for retail reroofs: what the homeowner has already agreed to, what your estimator needs on site to present a full proposal, financing readiness, and typical decision timing.
Booked roof inspection appointments: homeowners who want a documented condition assessment for age, a leak, a real estate transaction or an insurance requirement, and what your estimator should bring.
Booked commercial roof inspection appointments with property managers, facility directors and building owners: access requirements, what has already been agreed, documentation to bring, and realistic decision timing.
It is our documented seven checkpoint process that every booked roofing appointment clears before it reaches a contractor: ownership confirmed, address inside your approved service area, roof age and reason for the quote documented, decision maker confirmed present, a specific window agreed and read back, a calendar invite issued with a unique reference ID, and a final internal QA review before release.
Because an estimator's hours are the scarce resource in a roofing company. Every checkpoint exists to remove a specific way an appointment wastes a drive: a renter, an out of area address, a homeowner with no real roof issue, a missing spouse, a vague day instead of a time, or a booking nobody reviewed.
It is fixed, rebooked or dropped before it reaches you. Failing appointments are not passed along with a caveat. That is why the number of appointments we set is higher than the number we release.
No process eliminates no-shows. The read-back at checkpoint five, the confirmation and reminders attached to the reference ID at checkpoint six, and the QA review at checkpoint seven are how we hold the show rate. When a homeowner does not show, the reference ID is how we track it and rebook.
Yes, with the ownership checkpoint adapted. For commercial and property manager appointments we confirm the contact's authority to approve a roof inspection, the building address and access requirements, and who approves scope after the inspection.
Yes. The notes captured at checkpoints one through four are attached to the calendar invite along with the unique reference ID, so your estimator reads the situation before arriving.
