Confirmed roof estimate appointments.
You show up. They're expecting you.

Latchpoint finds Chicago homeowners whose roofs are statistically due for replacement, calls them ourselves, and books a confirmed estimate appointment on your behalf. You don't cold-call anyone. You don't chase leads. You show up to a homeowner who's already expecting a roofer. $300 per confirmed appointment.

How it works

We do the targeting, the calling, and the booking.

Most lead-gen platforms sell the same form-fill to four contractors at once and leave you to chase it. We don't sell leads — we sell confirmed appointments with homeowners who've already agreed to meet with a roofer.

01

Permit history

We pull every Chicago roofing permit from the last 25 years. Asphalt roofs last 18–25 years, so permits filed in 2001–2007 represent the highest-probability replacement targets right now.

02

Storm overlay

We cross-reference NOAA's verified storm event database — every hail event ≥0.75 inch and every wind event ≥58 mph in Cook County since 2022. Roofs that took a hit get prioritized.

03

Owner skip-trace

We skip-trace each property to get the verified homeowner's name, mobile, and email — and confirm owner-occupancy, so we're never calling a tenant who can't sign for the work.

04

We make the call. You get a booking.

Our team calls the homeowner, qualifies them on the phone, and books a confirmed estimate appointment on your calendar. You walk into a meeting with someone who's expecting you — not a cold lead.

What you receive

A confirmed appointment, not a phone number.

When we book an appointment for you, you get this brief — the address, the confirmed time, the homeowner, and the roof intel you'll want to know before you knock on the door.

Math check: a typical Chicago single-family asphalt re-roof tickets at $12k–$22k. At an industry-average 40% close rate on warm in-home estimates, $300 per booked appointment works out to roughly $750 per closed job — about 4–6% of revenue. Compare to HomeAdvisor / Modernize blended cost-per-acquisition of $1,800–$3,200 on shared cold leads.
