Fair pricing, plain rules

Three promises about the number.

Why not one price?

A comprehensive on a 12,000 sq ft cut-up tile roof takes 4× the field time and 3× the writing time of a Snapshot on a 1,600 sq ft ranch. Charging both the same would be dishonest one way or the other.

No hidden fees

The estimator shows every surcharge as you click. No trip fee, no fuel surcharge, no 'consultation' upcharge, no percentage-of-anything.

Locked at booking

The estimate becomes the invoice the moment you book. If I discover the roof is bigger or more complex than stated, I call before I inspect — never after.

What your money buys

Line-item breakdown by tier.

No mystery pricing. Every dollar buys documented labor, gear time, and pages you can hand to a contractor or an adjuster.

The honest version

What's free, what's paid.

Every homeowner asks these in the first five minutes. Answers up front so you don't have to.

Yes. No charge, no obligation, no bait-and-switch. I show up, walk the roof (or fly the drone if it's not safe to walk), take a look, and tell you what I see. If you like the visit and want it in writing, you can order a written report — that's the only thing that costs money.
Frequently asked

Pricing FAQ.

Every tier includes the full 27-point walk. Higher tiers add HAAG test squares, IR scans, Xactimate line items, and a signed affidavit — deliverables adjusters and lawyers require.

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.
