How do you know when your roof needs to be replaced? When was the last time you inspected your roof? Have you read all the regulations agreed to by the insurance industry and the state legislation regarding when they have to replace a roof? No insurance company is going to pay for a roof replacement that doesn't meet the requirements they agreed to.
Just because someone knocked on a door and offered to inspect a roof then found that according to insurance industry regulations it was eligible for replacement doesn't mean it's a scam. I wouldn't know what to look for. What do you do, wait for a leak so you have to then replace the roof, and possibly underlayment, trusses, drywall and flooring?
Skip Smith has a Villages YouTube channel and on two different WNL shows he had insurance people on and one thing they said that shocked me was that something along the line for every $20 they spend on paying for a claim they spend about $70 to lawyers fighting your claims. This shocked me, I was amazed at that much going to fight your claims and second that they would admit that. Maybe they need to investigate what kind of scam the insurance companies and these law offices are running. Maybe they could afford to pay these claims instead of making lawyers rich.
These insurance companies made a lot of money over the years and now they have a couple bad ones and skip town.
