Roof scam
[QUOTE=Fastskiguy;2362716]Just got a call from my dad about a guy from Apex roofing that blew into Pinellas offering free roof inspections. He got up on the roof, took some pictures, and explained there is storm damage to the roof (cupping, missing shingles, some other stuff I can't remember). He said he could help line up a lawyer to go after the home insurance company (Progressive) and probably get a new roof. The roof is about 10 years old. The lawyer answered the phone call right away and set up a meeting for Friday night. Something like "Your Insurance Lawyer, inc." (can't remember the exact name)
The whole thing sounded fishy as hell to me....but I don't know anything about roofs or insurance. Is this legit?
NO! It’s the reason insurance rates are through the roof, literally.(excuse the pun).
Roofs are made to last 20+ years. SCAM. Plus you could be committing a crime. Call your insurance company. Do not sign anything.
