Where to Scan First in Franklin
Roofbird doesn't just sell you a list of names. It tells you which parts of Franklin are worth your time. Search a ZIP code like 37064 or 37067, or draw a polygon around the neighborhoods you serve, and Roofbird ranks each block by housing era, roof wear, hail history, and walkability. For example, older subdivisions near the Harpeth River or along Lewisburg Pike may have more weathered roofs than newer builds in Westhaven or McKay's Mill.
The tool also counts homes from building footprints, not estimates, and flags scattered acreage on long driveways as poor canvassing. If a block doesn't clear the bar, Roofbird says so plainly. That's the honest version of 'where should I knock today' — and no shared lead marketplace can do it, because they don't know your territory.
Two Scores: Needs a Roof vs. Will Decide Now
Every Franklin lead comes with two numbers. The NEED score reflects how badly the roof needs replacing, based on condition and estimated roof age. The NOW score reflects whether anything is forcing a decision on this specific house: visible damage like a tarp or missing shingles, a recent hail event on this roof, a purchase in the last 18 months, or neighbors who have already re-roofed.
Roofbird deliberately does not raise the NOW score just because a neighborhood had hail. Every home in a hail zone shares that history, so it can't separate one door from the next. Instead, Roofbird shows the insurance claim window based on the typical state deadline, so you know how much time the homeowner has left to file — and you can verify with the carrier.
Franklin's Storm History and What It Means for You
Williamson County has seen multiple wind events in the last 18 months, including several on July 4, 2026, and November 8, 2025. Nearby Davidson County also recorded hail on November 8, 2025. These events can create pockets of wind and hail damage, but not every roof in the county is affected equally.
Roofbird reads each roof individually, so you can find the homes that actually show signs of impact — not just every address in a zip code. That's the difference between a targeted list and a storm-chaser's shotgun approach.
Homeowner Contacts, DNC-Scrubbed and Ready
Once you scan a Franklin neighborhood, opening a house costs 1 credit and shows you the property record: owner name, occupancy status, estimated equity, and more, along with the homeowner's phone and email. Every number is checked against the federal Do Not Call registry. You'll see 'clear' for numbers safe to call, 'DNC' for those to avoid, and 'verify' for unknowns.
This is the sharpest difference from Angi or Thumbtack, which sell the same shared lead to multiple contractors. Roofbird does not sell leads one by one or resell form fills: it ranks every roof, you choose which ones to act on, and you get direct contact info for the houses you open.
Work the List Like a CRM, Not a PDF
Roofbird lets you filter leads by owner-occupied vs. absentee, active damage, insurance window open, minimum need score, and contact state. You can tag leads, export data, or print door-hanger PDFs for your route. The interface is built for a sales rep in the field, not a database administrator.
And because low-quality roofs are dropped before they hit your list, your credits go to roofs worth working. Re-scanning an area surfaces genuinely new homes instead of the same roofs again.
