HyreRoof

For the trade

For roofing companies

HyreRoof has no roofing companies signed up, no live matching and no lead volume to quote. What we have is a site that answers your customers’ questions before they call, and a list you can join now. Registering costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

Where should I start?

Why we open with what we lack. You have probably been sold a number before, so we will not open with one.

We would rather have a short, honest conversation about what a fair arrangement looks like.

What is HyreRoof?

hyreroof.com publishes independent information for homeowners with a roofing decision: repair or replace, what drives a price, what a written scope should contain and how a storm claim works. We do no roofing work and hold no contractor license. We intend to introduce readers to roofers who can help them.

The site has eleven roofing tools and eleven research studies, all open, none behind an email wall.

What has a homeowner read before contacting you?

What your customer already knows matters more than a volume figure. Someone who reaches you through this site may already have read that:

  • A roof is priced by the square, and a quote without a deck repair rate is unfinished.
  • A quote should say whether the flashing is replaced or reused, and ventilation is part of the job.
  • The manufacturer and the roofer each give a separate warranty.
  • They should ask who pulls the permit, and ask for a lien waiver with each payment.
  • Anyone offering to cover the deductible is someone to walk away from.
  • Nothing gets signed on a doorstep.

If that sounds like a harder customer, notice who it is harder for. A roofer who scopes in writing and itemizes the quote has had half the conversation done for it. See what we tell homeowners to check.

What would we ask of you?

The same things we tell homeowners to check. It would make no sense to publish a checklist and then introduce homeowners to companies that fail it.

  • A real, registered business. With an operating history we can find in public records, not only on your website.
  • The license your state requires. Checked with the state board where one is required. Where your state has none, say so.
  • Liability and workers’ compensation coverage. Workers’ comp where you employ crews. Confirmed with the carrier once that check is built.
  • Written, itemized estimates. Squares, tear-off, deck repair rate, accessories and both warranties, each on its own line.
  • A reply to every inquiry you accept. A homeowner who is never called is a homeowner we have failed.
  • No deductible rebating, no doorstep contracts. We publish both as warning signs to homeowners, so we cannot introduce them to companies that use them.

What is not decided yet?

HyreRoof is early. We would rather leave these open than publish terms that change in three months.

TermWhere it stands
Pricing model and priceNot decided. Per inquiry, subscription or something else, and at what price.
Exclusive or sharedNot decided. Whether an inquiry goes to one roofer or several.
Delivery speedNot decided. How quickly an accepted inquiry reaches you.
Invalid inquiriesNot decided. What earns a credit, and how a dispute is raised.
Contract termsNot decided. Any minimum commitment, and how to pause or leave.

Settled already: we take no cut of the job, and you contract with the homeowner directly. The partner FAQ answers each open term one by one.

What will HyreRoof never become?

  • A directory. No profiles, ratings or rankings, so there is no position to buy.
  • A review platform. We carry no reviews, because we have no policy for collecting them.
  • A badge seller. We will never call your company “trusted”. We name what we checked and let the homeowner decide.
  • A traffic reseller. Every inquiry will start on this site, from someone who read a page. We buy no leads to resell.

Questions people ask

How many leads can you send me?
None we can promise, and we will not quote a number we have not produced. HyreRoof is a new site, matching is not live, and no roofing companies are signed up. Volume will depend on homeowner demand in your market, which neither of us controls.
What does it cost?
Nothing today, because there is nothing live to charge for. The pricing model and price are not decided. When they are, they will be published, and businesses that registered will hear before the page changes.
Are inquiries sent to more than one company?
Not decided yet. Exclusivity is an open term, and we will publish the answer once it is settled instead of implying one now.
Do you take a cut of the job?
No. We are not a party to your contract with the homeowner and take no percentage of the work. Whatever the pricing turns out to be, it will be for the introduction, not the roof.
Will you call my company “trusted” or “vetted”?
No. We do not use those words about anyone, because they promise a level of checking we have not earned. When a check is done, we name the check. See how roofers will be checked.
Am I committing to anything by registering?
No. Registering tells us where you work and what you do. It is not a purchase, there is no contract, and the commercial terms are not set.
