Roofing Contractors vs. Insurance Companies
• Home Insurance
Katrina has caused local roof repair costs to just about double.
Material costs have spiked, due to greater demand and rising costs for petroleum-based products. And hundreds of out-of-state workers, who have flooded the market to handle the surge in roofing jobs, require temporary lodging and food.
Those factors have contractors demanding prices of between $180 and $230 per square. And they expect insurers to reach the same conclusion shortly.
