Since 2015 we have worked one job for roofing and restoration contractors: making sure the carrier pays what the scope actually calls for. We audit the estimate, research the codes that apply, document what the adjuster missed, and submit the supplement. You pay only on what we add.
Supplementing
Most roofing claims are underpaid, and rarely on purpose. Adjusters work fast, carriers use standard line items, and the scope written on the first pass often misses code-required work, access conditions, and materials the job genuinely needs. We take the approved estimate and the file documentation and rebuild the scope to match the job: line-by-line review against the carrier’s estimating platform, current local code requirements, manufacturer installation specs, and the photos and measurements from the inspection. Every item we add is supported before it goes out.What we commonly recover
- Code-required upgrades: ice and water shield, drip edge, decking, ventilation
- Steep and high charges the original scope missed
- Detach and reset items
- Correct material and waste calculations
- Access, staging, and disposal conditions
Estimating
If you need a full estimate rather than a supplement to an existing one, we write it. Same standards, same documentation discipline: itemized scope priced to current regional rates and formatted the way carriers expect to receive it. This is the service contractors use when writing estimates at night stops being sustainable, or when storm volume outruns the office. More detail on our estimating service.Measurement Reports
We pull roof measurement reports on request — squares, pitch, facets, ridge and hip lengths, valleys, and penetrations — so your scope starts from accurate numbers rather than a guess. Ordering measurements and scope together means both come from the same source, which removes one of the most common reasons a carrier pushes back. More detail on roof measurement reports.Denials and Underpaid Claims
We also review claims that were denied or approved short, rebuild the documentation behind them, and coordinate with outside counsel where a claim calls for it. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. More detail on denied and underpaid claims.How It Works
- Send the file. Carrier estimate, photos, measurements if you have them.
- We review and build. Line-by-line audit, code research, documenting the full scope.
- The supplement is submitted. We follow up repeatedly over an average of 2-3 weeks.
- You get paid on what we add. Our fee is a share of the increase.
