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.

Fair Comparison
Vetted NM Bidder vs. Out-of-State Storm Chasers
After every NM hail event, trucks with out-of-state plates flood neighborhoods. Our 6-point vetting exists specifically to filter these bidders out. Here's the side-by-side we use.
Dimension
Roof Doctor NM
Storm chasers (out-of-state door-knockers)
NM CID license verified this quarter
Yes — verified on NMRLD before we forward the scope
Often unlicensed or sub-licensed to a local
Physical NM address you can drive to
Required — office or yard in state
PO box, hotel room, or truck
Warranty support in year 5
Same phone number, same crew
Company gone before next storm
Insurance claim handling
Meets your adjuster; no AOB required
Often require you to sign AOB
Speed to first response
Inside 48 hours of scope handoff
Same day (they're aggressive)
Price honesty
Bids the written scope line for line
Cheap up front, upsells later
Bottom line
Storm chasers aren't always scammers — but the risk profile is stacked against you. A scope of work forces them to either bid apples-to-apples or walk. Most walk.
