Roofing lead buying guide.

1. What are roofing leads?

A roof replacement lead is a homeowner inquiry about replacing a roof. Your team still needs to inspect the property, confirm the work and present an estimate. An inquiry does not establish the roof’s condition or guarantee that a replacement is appropriate.

Broad roofing campaigns may include leak repairs, maintenance, commercial roofs or full replacements. A replacement-focused contractor should agree on these boundaries before buying. Do not assume an inquiry involves an insurance claim or that any claim has been accepted.

2. Which lead criteria matter?

Separate information collected on the form from the acceptance criteria agreed for your order. Review these details before comparing providers.

Homeowner or decision-maker

We recommend a prospect who reports owning the property or having authority to discuss the roofing work.

Service territory

Match the property ZIP code to the areas your team accepts.

Replacement interest

Define interest in full roof replacement and how repair-only requests are excluded or handled.

Contact verification

Confirm phone PIN verification, email validation and which contact fields arrive with the inquiry.

Follow-up request

Agree how the homeowner’s request and contact permission are recorded and made available.

Additional project context

Discuss property type, roof material, approximate roof age, reported concerns and timing. These are homeowner-reported details, not inspection findings.

Leadhesive uses phone PIN verification and email validation for contact details. Property and project answers remain homeowner-reported. See our lead quality standards.

3. Compare the product before the price.

Ask each provider to define exactly what you are buying. Distribution, age, qualification and the work left for your team affect the comparison.

Leadhesive’s standard roofing offer is exclusive inquiries. A prospect may still independently approach other providers; exclusivity describes Leadhesive’s distribution of the inquiry.

4. How much do roofing leads cost?

Leadhesive quotes roofing leads for your market, criteria and delivery needs. The starting order is 50 exclusive leads. Confirm your exact USD rate and terms before payment; this guide does not publish a fixed price for this vertical.

Compare quotes for the same replacement scope and territory. Cost per completed inspection and signed roofing job is more informative than a low price for a broad mix of roof-related contacts.

5. How do you compare roofing lead providers?

1. How do you distinguish replacements from repairs? Ask to see the project choices and a sample record. Confirm how excluded work is handled.
2. Is the inquiry exclusive and recent? Ask who else receives it, when the homeowner submitted it and when it is delivered to your team.
3. Are storm or insurance details actually collected? Avoid assuming the lead includes a claim, claim approval or damage assessment. Confirm the exact fields.
4. How are territories and disputes handled? Agree on service ZIP codes, duplicate checks, the reporting window and the remedy for eligible issues.

Also ask how contact permissions are recorded and made available, who handles delivery problems, and how your team reports an eligible lead issue. Put the agreed criteria, reporting window and remedy in writing.

6. How do you evaluate the first 50 leads?

Prepare your team before delivery.

Give the intake team a clear replacement offer and a way to book inspections within the crew’s territory. Route new records to the correct branch instead of relying on a shared inbox with no owner.

Keep inspection outcomes and estimates linked to the original lead. A consistent record makes it easier to distinguish an unsuitable project from a homeowner who needs more follow-up.

Confirm the destination and notifications with a delivery test. See our lead delivery options for CRM, Google Sheets, email and SMS setup.

Measure the same batch from inquiry to outcome.

For each trial batch, track valid contacts, completed inspections, estimates delivered and signed roofing contracts. Keep replacement and repair outcomes separate if both are accepted.

Measure lead spend per signed job using the same batch of leads and a consistent follow-up period. Include your own estimating and sales costs when reviewing the overall acquisition economics.

7. What does a trial-to-scale result look like?

Results supplied and confirmed by Leadhesive. The appointments and closes relate to the initial 50-lead batch. Confirmed appointments are not a count of completed visits. The $72,500 figure is calculated from five closed jobs at a reported $14,500 average ticket; it is job value, not collected revenue or profit. The 200-lead figure is subsequent monthly lead volume. Individual outcomes vary.

After the Phoenix trial, the client scaled to 200 monthly leads. Set your own delivery pace around inspection availability, estimating capacity and consistent follow-up; one client’s result is not a volume or sales guarantee.

Keep the criteria and outcome definitions consistent as volume changes. Use the lead program planning checklist to document the next order.
