Dealing with HORROR STORY Roofing Customers & HUGE Mess Ups [LockDown LIVE]

Adam Bensman (roof strategist) presents a LockDown LIVE session about 'horror story' roofing customers and major operational mistakes. He shares several real anecdotes—false carbon-monoxide claim, installing wrong shingle color, shingle-color dispute leading to arbitration, disputed gutter damage rebutted with pre/post photos, OSB vs CDX decking complaint, and a tarp-blowout that caused ~$75,000 damage—and the tactical lessons learned. Key operational takeaways: document everything (signed change orders), photo-document pre/post conditions, have crews verify materials before installation, and maintain insurance/restoration workflows. He ends with a seven-step customer-resolution system (address needs head on; let them vent; repeat back; express commitment to make it right; propose/deliver solution; set expectations; follow through).
