Your roof is one of the largest full pieces to your home, and arguably one of the most important pieces. It allows you and your family to be sealed away from the exterior by keeping weather and heat at bay. It also serves an aesthetic function as many roofs can be absolutely beautiful. As one of the biggest investments you can make in your home, you need to be sure you find a local roofing contractor you can trust.
The speaker in the video is reviewing a news story about an individual who was a victim of a roofing scam.
The homeowner paid a down payment on the services for the home, expecting the roofing crew to return with materials and complete the job. Unfortunately, that crew never returned, and the homeowner lost his five thousand dollar down payment.
The speaker in the embedded video is a licensed roofer and he warns against these scams as they are still prevalent. He recommends getting a signed agreement detailing the entire job before giving any money to any organization.
The homeowner even took the roofer to court and sued for his money back, which he won and was promised even more than that by the court. Unfortunately, the roofer is still avoiding repaying his down payment.
The speaker recommends you find a local roofing contractor that is reputable and that you trust so this scam does not impact you.
