To help homeowners understand what “good evidence” looks like before decisions are made—especially after storms.
Most claim confusion comes from missing context, weak documentation, or inconsistent timelines. The University fixes that.
Why it exists
Because “roofing decisions” are often really “evidence decisions.”
1) Homeowners need leverage
Most homeowners enter a storm claim without a clear documentation standard. The University fixes that gap.
2) Claims fail from confusion
Delays, denials, and stalls often come from missing context, weak photos, or inconsistent timelines.
3) The industry needs clarity
Inspection-first education reduces “opinion battles” by anchoring decisions to documented condition.
How it works
A step-by-step track built to reduce guesswork.
Based on Inspector Roofing Protocols™.
- Stewardship: establish baseline roof condition and risks.
- Evidence: learn documentation protocols that hold up.
- Claim execution: prepare for adjuster meetings and maintain continuity.
- Defense: understand common denial logic and how evidence counters it.
- Short, actionable lessons (not theory-only).
- PDFs + books + structured exams and flashcards.
- Designed to be referenced during real situations (storms, leaks, claim meetings).
