Homeowners Are Using AI to Compare Roof Estimates. I Tested It.
About this episode
The episode explores how homeowners are using AI to compare roof estimates and the implications for contractors.
Homeowners are now using AI to compare roof estimates. That means that AI could be advising your homeowners on which roofer to choose. And from the conversations I’ve been having, it sounds like this is becoming even more common. I wanted to know exactly what AI was saying to homeowners, so I ran the experiment myself. I fed three real roof estimates into ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini and I documented everything. Watch this new video to see my test results: 1) The 7 things AI looks for when comparing roof estimates 2) How estimates that don’t include attic ventilation details get “red flagged” 3) The specificity AI expects on warranties, flashing, ice & water shield, and more 4) The details about the cleanup process that AI seems to want in an estimate 5) The 3 common questions AI is prompting homeowners to ask their contractors (these were the most surprising to me) This emerging trend is actually great news for contractors who are willing to adapt. Because what AI flagged is very fixable. And if you adapt before your competitors do, your estimate could become the one AI points to as the winner. P.S. Are you interested in building an even stronger, more modern roofing company…
