Since we have had numerous storms in our area, the "out of towners" have arrived in full force, with the flashy trucks, charismatic high pressure salesmen and deep pockets. Storm chasers use several tactics to intimidate our neighbors, and family members. Some claim you must act now, or you will not be compensated for your loss. This is not true, you have 1 year from the time of the loss to report and repair such damage. Others force you folks into signing contracts claiming that you will possibly be pushed behind other people needing roofs, if you don't sign now. 
   These storm chasers rent offices in our towns, they get 704, or 980 phone numbers to appear as if they are local. These out of state roofing contractors, even enter into secret deals, with reputable local roofing contractors to "lease their name". They offer big bucks to local roofers, so they may use their name, and phone numbers, to look local. This is bad, since shoddy work will leave them on the hook for alot of repairs, and warranties. Most often the local contractors, don't even know about complaint issues until the storm chasers are gone, since these storm chasers have leased the company's phones too, the calls go to them. 
 There is alot of money to be made in insurance restoration. These out of state companies take major money out of our local economy, and move on to other damaged areas to do the same thing. Hire local, help our economy, and get the peace of mind that any issues you may have will be resolved.
I am local to this area, I was raised,, and went to school in Charlotte, my wife is from south Gastonia. We were married at our church, in Gastonia, and live in Lincolnton. It doesn't get any more local than that.
