How We Rank & Review Roofing Companies
Transparency is at the core of everything we do. Here's exactly how we evaluate contractors, create content, and ensure accuracy.
How Our Leads Work
RoofingCompaniesWashington.com is a lead generation marketplace. We create optimized, city-specific roofing pages that connect Washington homeowners with vetted local contractors. Here's how the process works:
- 1
Homeowner Submits a Request
A homeowner in any Washington city fills out our contact form or calls the number on their local city page.
- 2
Lead is Routed to the Local Contractor
The contractor who rents that city's page receives the lead directly — via phone forwarding and email notification.
- 3
Contractor Responds
The renting contractor contacts the homeowner to schedule an inspection, provide an estimate, and complete the roofing work.
- 4
Quality Assurance
We monitor lead quality, response times, and homeowner satisfaction. Contractors who fail to meet our standards lose page access.
Contractor Vetting Criteria
Every contractor who rents a city page on our platform must meet the following minimum requirements:
- Active Washington State contractor license (verified via L&I database)
- Current general liability insurance ($1M minimum coverage)
- Workers' compensation insurance coverage
- Minimum 3 years of documented roofing experience in Washington
- At least 2 verifiable local references from the past 12 months
