Frequently asked questions

Can I finance a roof through my insurance claim?+

Not directly. If insurance covers the replacement, they pay the contractor on a depreciated and recoverable-depreciation schedule. Financing covers your deductible and any upgrades insurance won't pay for, like an upgrade from 3-tab to architectural.

What credit score do I need for roofing financing?+

640+ qualifies for promotional 0% terms at most major lenders. 720+ unlocks the lowest standard-term APRs (typically 7.99% to 11.99%). Sub-600 scores usually route to secondary lenders at 19.99%+.

Are roofing companies' in-house plans a good deal?+

0% promotional plans are real and worth using if you can pay off inside the term. Watch for deferred-interest clauses where missed final payments retroactively charge interest from day one.
