Where to Scan in Lakewood: Let the Data Pick Your Territory
Before you draw a single polygon, Roofbird reads the neighborhoods you work and tells you which blocks are worth a scan. It ranks each block by housing era, roof wear, hail history in the last 12 months, and walkability. That's the honest answer to 'where should I knock today'—and it's something a shared lead marketplace can't do, because they don't know your territory.
In Lakewood, that means you can compare the older ranches near Belmar with the newer developments around Green Mountain, and see which ones show weathered roofs or recent hail exposure. Roofbird only suggests blocks that clear the bar, and if nothing in view is worth the trip, it says so plainly.
- Housing era and roof age read from imagery, not county records alone.
- Hail history from NOAA storm data, including the 2025 and 2026 Jefferson County events.
- Walkability score: scattered acreage on long driveways is flagged as poor canvassing.
- Counts actual homes from building footprints, not estimates by area.
Every Roof Read from Two Angles at Once
Roofbird combines a top-down satellite tile with a ground-level Street View of the façade into one assessment. The ground-level read catches granule loss, algae streaking, curling shingles, and patched sections that a top-down tile can't see. It also compares the roof to its immediate neighbors: if the houses on either side have been re-roofed and this one hasn't, that's flagged as social proof.
Each lead includes a 0-100 priority score, a plain-English verdict, roof material, estimated roof age (read off the shingles), wear signs, both images, and an estimated job value range. You get a ready-to-say door pitch, not just an address.
Two Scores: Needs a Roof vs. Will Decide Now
Roofbird separates how badly a roof needs replacing (the NEED score) from whether anything is forcing a decision on this specific house (the NOW score). The NOW score considers visible active damage, hail damage on this roof, a recent purchase, patching attempts, or neighbors who have re-roofed. Neighborhood hail does not raise the NOW score, because every home in the scan shares it—it belongs in the pitch, not the ranking.
For Lakewood, that means a home that took hail in June 2026 will show a trigger if the damage is visible, but a home that simply sits in a hail-affected area won't be inflated. Roofbird also shows an estimated insurance claim window based on Colorado's typical notice deadline, with a reminder to verify with the carrier.
The Homeowner, Not Just the House
Open a house for 1 credit and you get the full property record: owner name, occupancy status, estimated market value, year built, last sale date, beds/baths, square footage, lot size, stories, garage, property tax, and mortgage lender. Roofbird also estimates the owner's equity, because that decides whether they can say yes.
The same credit brings the phones and email. Every number is DNC-scrubbed and labeled 'clear', 'DNC', or 'verify'. Manual dialing only, no texts or auto-dialers. A failed lookup is refunded, though a nobody-listed answer is charged.
Work the List Like a CRM, Not a PDF
Roofbird gives you card view or a side-by-side table with sticky headers, zoomable imagery, and one-click open. Filter on owner-occupied vs. absentee, live triggers, active damage, insurance claim windows, minimum need score, roof age, equity, and contact state, including 'callable' numbers off the DNC registry. Tag leads, export data, or print door-hanger PDFs for your route, on every credit pack.
Low-quality roofs are dropped before they reach your list and never use your credits. Re-scanning an area surfaces genuinely new homes instead of the same roofs again.
Roofbird Has Already Scanned Colorado Homes
Roofbird has published open scan reports for Colorado, including Pueblo and Logan County, showing the system works in this state's diverse housing and storm patterns. That's not a promise, but proof that the technology is reading Colorado roofs today.
