How this works, end to end
No cleverness, no algorithm worth bragging about. A short form, a routing rule, and a hard cap of three contractors.
Tell us about the roof
Up to three local contractors, and never more.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Fountain Valley and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
How it works
The whole thing is a form and a routing rule. What happens after it is contractors, on the phone, today.
Tell us about the roof
Three taps. The questions exist so contractors know whether to send a repair tech or a re-roof estimator.
Matched to nearby contractors
Independent local companies, chosen on where they work and what they specialise in. Emergencies go out first.
Real numbers, then your call
Contractors contact you directly and quote after seeing the roof. There is no fee and nothing to cancel.
Illustrative photographs of roofing work in general. Not photographs of jobs arranged through this site.
No cost to the homeowner. Ever, at any stage. That is the whole arrangement, stated plainly.
Vetted before they hear from you. Licence checked, insurance certificates held, coverage area confirmed.
Nothing is booked. You are agreeing to be quoted, not to have work done.
Capped at three. Two quotes will not show you an outlier; five is an ordeal.
What we do, and what we do not
We are the introduction, not the contractor. Apex Roofing Co. is a matching service for Fountain Valley and the wider Orange County area. The roofing is done by independent licensed companies who contract with you, not with us.
Once you pick somebody, we are out of it. The agreement is theirs and yours. We have no leverage over a contractor after the introduction, so do not rely on us having any: check the licence and the insurance yourself.
How contractors get into the network
- They tell us which ZIP codes they genuinely cover, and what kind of roofing they actually do.
- They give us a state contractor licence number, which must be current.
- They accept that a request outside their real coverage area is not one they will be sent.
- They agree to the three-contractor cap and to contacting you only about the request you submitted.
Treat all of it as a filter, not a guarantee. A licence that was current in March can be suspended by August, and a certificate of insurance is only evidence of the month it was issued. Verify both yourself before anybody starts.
What happens to your information
Three contractors, and that is the entire distribution. No brokers, no lists, no advertising profiles built out of what you told us. The privacy policy sets out the detail, and the do-not-sell page is there if you would rather we did not share it at all.
Why it is free
The contractors pay; you do not. Saying so is not modesty, it is the useful fact: it tells you why this exists and what we are optimising for, which is contractors who close work rather than contractors who pay most.
