How we make money
The short version is the disclosure you'll see next to every quote button on this site:
Browsing Metal Roof Installers costs nothing, and no company paid for its place in a city's list. Where we have the state's license record, that record is the list; where we don't, the list runs on Google's own ratings instead. Only the quote button works differently: use it, and we may be paid by whichever partner takes over your request from there, and whoever eventually calls you may or may not be a name you actually saw listed here.
The directory and the technical guides are built without payment changing hands. A company can't buy a spot in a city's metal-specialist grouping, pay to be excluded from a competitor's list, or pay for a better spot on a page built from Google ratings; in a license city, every name traces to an active roofing license, and in a rated city, every name traces to Google's own number instead.
The quote button is the exception. Clicking it sends your details onward to a matching partner, and we may get paid by that partner simply for the referral. Whichever contractor ultimately lands the job is a separate matter from anything printed on this page.
The quote button
Pages with listings also carry a quote button. It opens a quote request run by our matching partners, not by the businesses listed on the page. When you ask for quotes through it, a partner may pay us. That is how we pay for running this site.
The partner decides which companies to match you with, so the companies that contact you may not be the ones listed on the page you came from. Before you hire anyone, check their license the same way you would check a listed business.
What it costs you
Using Metal Roof Installers costs homeowners nothing. You don't pay us for listings, lookups or quote requests.
What money doesn't change
- Listings come from state license records or, on top-rated lists, from Google Maps ratings. No business pays to be listed, to be left off, or for its position.
- License listings are sorted alphabetically. Top-rated lists are ranked only by Google rating and review count.
- There are no paid placements today. If we add any, they will be marked Sponsored.
- Verify license links go only to the state's license registry, never to a partner.
How to tell the links apart
Quote buttons always sit in a box with the disclosure above, and they are marked as sponsored links in the page code (rel="sponsored"). Every other outbound link on the site goes to an official license record, a business's Google Maps listing, or a source we cite.
