Where to Scan in Chattanooga
Before you draw a single polygon, Roofbird reads the neighborhoods you work and ranks them by housing era, roof wear, hail history, and walkability. In Chattanooga, that means you can compare the older bungalows in St. Elmo or the historic districts near downtown with the newer subdivisions in East Brainerd or Ooltewah, and see which blocks have the most weathered roofs.
Roofbird doesn't guess which areas are worth your morning. It counts actual homes from building footprints, checks whether hail has hit Hamilton County in the last 12 months, and flags scattered acreage that would kill your doors-per-hour. If a neighborhood doesn't clear the bar, it tells you plainly instead of sending you on a wasted drive.
- Ranks blocks by housing era, roof wear, hail history, and walkability
- Counts homes from building footprints, not estimates
- Flags long driveways and rural routes as poor canvassing
- Honest about neighborhoods that aren't worth the trip
Two Scores: Need and Now
Roofbird separates 'needs a roof' from 'will decide now' with two scores. The NEED score reflects roof condition and age, read from the shingles themselves. The NOW score looks for active triggers: visible damage, recent hail on that specific roof, a recent purchase, or neighbors who have re-roofed.
In Chattanooga, where wind events have hit Hamilton County multiple times in the last 18 months, the NOW score helps you prioritize homes that might have a claim window open. But Roofbird doesn't inflate urgency just because it's storm season. Most homes in a settled neighborhood have no trigger, and it says so.
- NEED score: roof condition and age only
- NOW score: active triggers that force a decision
- Neighborhood hail does not raise NOW, because it doesn't separate one door from the next
- Shows estimated claim window based on state notice deadlines, with a reminder to verify with the carrier
Homeowner Contacts, DNC-Scrubbed
Every lead includes the property record: owner name, occupancy status, estimated equity, last sale date, and more. The phone and email are behind a one-click unlock, and every number is checked against the federal Do Not Call registry. You'll see 'clear' for safe manual calls, 'DNC' for don't call, and 'verify' for unknown.
This is the difference between Roofbird and a shared marketplace. You're not buying a lead that four other contractors already called. You're getting a homeowner's contact details that you can call or mail directly, with confidence that you're not violating regulations.
- Owner name, occupancy, equity, and property details on every lead
- DNC-scrubbed phone numbers labeled clear, DNC, or verify
- Manual dialing only, no auto-dialers
- No contact found? No credit charged.
Work the List Like a CRM
Roofbird gives you a card view or a sortable table with filters on everything it knows. Filter by owner-occupied, active damage, claim window open, minimum need score, or contact state. Add your own tags, export the list, or print door-hanger PDFs for your route.
Low-quality roofs are dropped before they reach your list, so you only pay for leads worth working. Re-scanning an area surfaces genuinely new homes, not the same roofs again.
- Filter by need, now, occupancy, equity, and contact state
- Inline unlock for contacts, no PDF juggling
- Export or print door-hanger PDFs
- No charge for low-quality or duplicate leads
