The aggregate (granular) was cooled too quickly on the asphalt laminate so this caused a rapid decrease in granular accumulation on fiber asphalt mat. We are also FL licensed adjusters and work closely with manufacturers (Owens Corning and CertainTeed) as The Villages warranty dept immediately defers homeowners (Villages) right back to have roofs assessed in an honest manner (Remember, these are warranty inspections and not insurance scams).

If your roof is between Osceola Hills and Collier and between 8-10.5 years of age with algae streaks and granular masses have accumulated in gutter or clean out (French drains), then you too should get an honest assessment from SkyLight Roofing Villages: 352-552-4766

Let us repeat: This is not a scam, fraud, or insurance related and we would kindly appreciate folks thinking about what they post before they decide to type.

The OP question was what is the roofing scam. It MOST CERTAINLY does exist. Homeowners should understand that it DOES occur.

The warranty problem is a different issue entirely. Thanks for the detailed clarification.

No one is disputing the scam exists, but when posters possibly libel a business, as in post #10, the business concerned is entitled to apology, and the means to correct the damaging statement.
Off subject or not.

I agree! I was merely explaining roofing scams DO exist. I do not want any homeowner to fall victim. Whenever ANYONE comes to your door and asks for your insurance information, be suspicious. Replacement of shingles due to a warranty issue is not a scam. No one will ask for your insurance provider. It is a BIG DIFfERENCE.

So is naming a business as a scammer without any evidence.
That is libel.

The only roofing scam going on these days is by the house insurance companies

Exactly! Insurance had nothing to do with the roofs beibg replaced. Also, If the manufacturer says the roof needs replacing and gives the shingles to the contractor and pays labor costs, how is this a scam?

Whatever happened to adjusters showing up at your house to check the roof? Seems to me that a $8K+ claim would trigger a review by an adjuster, especially when the roofing scam is so prevalent. It sounds like the insurance companies are negligent in their due dilligence.
