Roofing leads look serious until you're standing on the property.
Roofing is one of the highest-volume lead trades — storm events alone can generate dozens of inquiries in a week. But roofing leads also have some of the highest variance in quality. A hailstorm brings out homeowners with legitimate insurance claims alongside neighbors who are just curious about the damage and first-call tire kickers who saw a competitor's truck.
The problem is that roofing qualifying visits cost more than most trades. You're driving to the property, getting on the roof, photographing damage, pulling measurements, and potentially running an insurance estimate before you even know if this customer is serious. That's 2-4 hours of invested time before you've written a word of a proposal.
Qualifying roofing leads before the site visit — not after — is where profitable roofing contractors separate themselves from busy ones.
"I used to drive to every call. Then I started scoring before I drove. My close rate went up and my windshield time went down."
— Roofing contractor, Lead Score user
Score every roofing lead on the phone before you load the truck.
Project Fit: is this an insurance claim, a retail replacement, or an emergency repair — and is it the kind of job you want? Budget Fit: have they checked with their insurance or do they have a realistic retail budget? Decision Maker: are you talking to the homeowner or a property manager who needs three bids?
Motivation: is there genuine urgency — active leak, hail damage report, insurance adjuster already scheduled? Or are they thinking about it for next year? Timeline: does their expected start date align with your schedule? A clear answer on all five factors takes 5 minutes on the phone and tells you whether this lead deserves a site visit.
Lead Score also lets you attach job site photos from your qualifying visit directly to the lead card — no CompanyCam subscription needed. And your dashboard shows which lead sources — storm canvassing, Angi, referrals, Google — are closing at the highest rates for your specific business.
Clear pricing. No surprises.

Who should use what.
For roofing contractors, Lead Score's pre-qualification system pays for itself the first time it stops you from making an unnecessary drive. One avoided bad qualifying visit covers months of the subscription cost. For contractors running 10-30 leads a week, the ROI compounds quickly.
The photo attachment feature is particularly valuable for roofers — documenting the qualifying visit with photos attached directly to the lead card creates a record that helps with insurance estimates, proposal writing, and dispute resolution.
What contractors ask before switching.
