Most roofers already feel what’s wrong in their business…

This just puts data behind it.

In this conversation, we break down what’s actually happening in roofing right now using the Peak Performance Report—and a lot of it confirms what you already know.

Speed to lead is too slow. Reviews are driving more business than people think. Automation is becoming a must. And poor communication is still one of the biggest reasons customers leave bad reviews.

Nothing here is surprising. But what matters is what you do with it.

The companies winning right now are building systems around this and creating a better customer experience from start to finish.

If you take one thing from this… Fix your customer communication.

When that improves, everything else follows—your close rate, your reviews, and your referrals.
