Scope-of-Work Bid vs. the Cheapest Bid

If you got three bids and one is 30% below the others, this page is for you. There are only a handful of ways a roofer gets that low — and a written scope of work exposes every one of them.

Dimension
Roof Doctor NM
Whoever's cheapest
Thinner underlayment (15# felt vs synthetic)
Synthetic spec'd in scope
15# felt
Skip ice-and-water at valleys/penetrations
Applied at every code-required spot
Skipped
Reuse flashing instead of replacing
New step + counter-flashing spec'd
Bent old flashing back
3-tab shingle vs architectural
Architectural default in scope
3-tab (fails in NM sun by year 10)
No permit pulled
Permit pulled + inspected
No permit — resale problem later
Cash today
Financing typically available
Cheaper cash number
Bottom line

The cheapest bid is only cheap if you don't read the scope. Ask any low bidder to bid our written scope line-for-line — if they can't, that's the answer.

What people say after James walks their roof

Three roofers wanted $32k after the June hailstorm. Roof Doctor NM walked the roof, took 84 photos, and said the hail was cosmetic. Saved me from a fraudulent claim.

Sarah K.Albuquerque · Nob Hill

Under contract on a Corrales house. The pre-purchase report caught two hidden layers the seller's disclosure missed. Got an $18k credit at closing.

David & Elena R.Corrales

Bid review flagged that the 'lifetime warranty' voided if we used the wrong underlayment — which the contractor had specced. Renegotiated the whole scope.
