How to avoid Storm Chasers and why it matters.
If you live in Cleveland, you know how quickly storms roll in — and how often they leave behind damaged roofs. Unfortunately, storms don’t just bring rain and hail. They also bring “storm chasers” — out-of-town roofers who flood into communities, offering quick fixes and “too good to be true” deals.
But when it comes to protecting your home, nothing beats hiring a local roofing contractor near you. Here’s why:
- Local Roofers Are Invested in the Community
Storm chasers follow bad weather from city to city. Once they finish jobs (or sometimes before), they’re gone. Local roofers like DunRite Exteriors live and work right here in Northeast Ohio. Their reputation is built on long-term trust, not quick cash.
- They Understand Ohio Weather and Roofing Needs
Cleveland’s roofs face harsh summers, freezing winters, lake-effect snow, and heavy rainstorms. Local contractors know which materials and installation methods perform best in our climate — storm chasers don’t.
- They’re There When You Need Them
What happens if your roof repair isn’t done correctly? A storm chaser might already be in another state. A local roofing company stands behind their work and will still be here to honor warranties and handle follow-up service.
- Insurance Claims Are Handled the Right Way
Filing an insurance claim after storm damage can be confusing. Local roofers have experience working with Cleveland-area adjusters and can guide you through the process. Storm chasers often push for shortcuts that may leave you with denied claims or subpar work.
- Proven Reputation vs. Empty Promises
Before hiring any roofer, check online reviews. Storm chasers usually don’t have a track record in your area. DunRite Exteriors, on the other hand, has hundreds of 5-star Google reviews from homeowners across Cleveland and Northeast Ohio.
