One recent example occurred in March of 2022 when my teammate Rick and I were called to Pearsons Landing neighborhood in Woodbridge, VA to conduct a free roof inspection and generate a custom roof report for Mr. Jacobs, an 84 year old Retired Army Veteran.

Roof Replacement is Relationship Based Not Transaction Based

We did not know Mr. Jacobs, prior to this meeting him for the initial roof inspection at his home in Woodbridge, VA.  He was referred to us by his neighbor, Ms. Regina.  Regina and Rick have been friends for years and Mr. Jacobs; had brought it to Regina’s attention that he needs to have his roof replaced because he has a leak that is causing damage to his bedroom ceiling and master bathroom ceiling.

He went on to say that he had a local roof contractor come out to inspect his roof and give him a free quote on repairing his roof as well as replacing his roof.  That quote came out to be around $24,000.

Upon learning of this; Regina immediately called Rick and told him/us about Mr. Jacob’s roof and ceiling situation.  We called Mr. Jacobs and scheduled an appointment to visit with him and schedule his roof inspection and begin the process of putting together his free roof report.

Thankfully, because of the relationship between Rick and Regina as well as Regina and Mr. Jacobs, we were able to go into action and serve Mr. Jacobs and his family.

Roof Inspection Time in Pearsons Landing, Woodbridge VA

It was an early Tuesday morning…about 8:30; when Rick and I arrived to Mr. Jacob’s home in the Pearsons Landing neighborhood in Woodbridge, VA to meet him and inspect his roof.  Rick served 12 years in the United States Marine Corps (Devil Dog…Once a Marine, Always a Marine) so he and Mr. Jacobs immediately hit it off.  There is a certain camaraderie that I have always admired when I have the pleasure to observe those who have served.  A brotherhood that bonds and unites.  While they talked and told jokes, I pulled out the drone and started to fly it above Mr. Jacob’s roof and begin the inspection.  I was able to observe a lot of damage on the front slope; however, minimal damage on the rear slope.  While I flew the drone, Rick inspected the damage to the ceiling on the interior.

Free Roof Report in Woodbridge, VA

Once the inspection of both, the roof and the interior were complete, I took pictures of the different elevations of the property to complete the information gathering for the free roof report.  Mr. Jacobs explained that he did attempt to go through insurance; however the claim only covered repairs on the roof and not a full roof replacement.  As we went over the report and recalled the events from the inspection, Rick – who spent a number of years as a claims adjuster for an insurance company; agreed with the decision of the insurance company and did not see a need to fight it.  This decision was based on the amount of damage to the roof.

We were able to put together a quote for Mr. Jacobs far less than the other roof contractor with superior material.  The price for Mr. Jacob’s new roof including an upgrade to 6 inch gutters and 6 inch gutter guards and 6 inch downspouts was $13,000 and he was able to finance for less than $130/mo.
