Methodology
How RoofersRanked compares roofing companies.
Our rankings are built to help homeowners create a smarter shortlist before requesting roofing estimates.
What Determines Rank
Current rankings use three Google public-profile inputs: the star-by-star review breakdown, the average rating, and the review count. The formula is applied consistently to eligible roofing contractors in our dataset. Paid relationships do not improve the score.
Ranking inputs were last verified against live Google listings in August 2026. Businesses whose Google listing no longer exists are removed from rankings rather than kept with stale data.
Service information, stated specialties, contact details, local roofing conditions, pricing guidance, licensing, insurance, warranties, and estimate scope can help homeowners compare companies, but they do not currently change ranking order.
Ranking Formula
Review quality
65%We score the full star-by-star review breakdown, not just the average, using a conservative statistical estimate so a perfect rating from a small number of reviews does not automatically lead the ranking.
Review volume
20%We score the size of the Google review history on a logarithmic scale. Review volume adds confidence, but its benefit tapers as the count grows.
Complaint resistance
15%We estimate how rare 1-star and 2-star reviews are for the business, again conservatively: a short clean history earns less credit than a long one.
RoofersRanked Score
The RoofersRanked.com score is a 1-10 review-strength heuristic combining three things: review quality (65%), review volume (20%), and complaint resistance(15%). Quality is estimated from the full star-by-star breakdown of a business's Google reviews with a conservative Bayesian adjustment, so small samples are pulled toward the platform-wide typical roofer profile until the history is long enough to speak for itself. Review volume is scored on a logarithmic scale, so the gap between 20 and 200 reviews counts for more than the gap between 800 and 1,000. Complaint resistance conservatively estimates how rare 1-star and 2-star reviews are.
Together these keep small samples conservative while still recognising long review histories: a perfect rating from a handful of reviews does not outrank a very strong rating from hundreds. Where a full star breakdown is not yet available for a business, we score from the displayed rating and review count with an extra conservative margin. This is a comparison heuristic, not a statistical estimate of workmanship, customer satisfaction, licensing status, or project outcomes.
Rankings cover roofing contractors only. Searches for local roofers also surface adjacent trades — gutter installers, window and siding companies, home inspectors — and we exclude those from rankings. General contractors and exteriors companies are included, since roofing is normally part of their work.
City rankings reflect service areas, not office addresses: a contractor ranked in a city actively serves it, but their office may sit elsewhere in the metro area — common for storm-market roofers who cover a whole region. We verify that every ranked contractor is physically located in the state we rank them in.
It is not a first-party customer rating from RoofersRanked and should be read alongside current licensing, insurance, warranty, estimate scope, and homeowner due diligence.
Data Sources
Pages may use public contractor details from business profiles, contractor websites, maps listings, and city-level roofing research. Ratings and review counts shown on the site are informational signals, not ratings collected by RoofersRanked.
We do not present third-party review ratings as RoofersRanked ratings in structured data. Homeowners should still verify current business details before hiring because licensing, insurance, service areas, and availability can change.
What We Do Not Claim
- We do not guarantee a contractor is available, licensed, insured, or the best fit for every project.
- We do not treat third-party public ratings as RoofersRanked-owned ratings; our score is a derived comparison metric.
- We do not replace written estimates, local permit checks, insurance verification, or homeowner due diligence.
- We do not publish third-party review text unless we have the right to display it.
Update Schedule
City pages include a last-checked date when data has been generated or refreshed. We prioritize updates when contractor details change, new markets are added, a company requests a factual correction, or a page receives meaningful homeowner traffic.
Because roofing businesses can change quickly, homeowners should confirm current phone numbers, service areas, insurance, licenses, warranties, and written scopes directly with each contractor.
Editorial Disclosure
RoofersRanked may earn referral revenue when homeowners submit quote requests or when contractors participate in a lead program. Sponsored placements, if used, should be clearly labeled.
A paid relationship should not guarantee a top ranking. Our goal is to keep the page useful for homeowners first, because low-quality matches do not help users, contractors, or the site.
Corrections and Removals
Roofing companies can request corrections to business details, service areas, phone numbers, websites, or factual information. Companies may also ask to be removed from a page.
Send correction requests through the contact page. We may ask for documentation before updating claims related to licensing, insurance, ownership, or certifications.
