I agree. Insurance companies aren't stupid, and they aren't afraid of a roofer filing a bogus claim. Also, signing an Assignment of Benefits form is a very bad idea. In addition to the problems already mentioned, the roofer can delay the project, leaving you with a defective roof, and you can't hire another roofer.
