Calgary roofing sites built for hail season.

1. 01.

   Phone number is below the fold

   After a hailstorm or a leak, homeowners call whoever picks up first. If they have to scroll to find your number, they have already called the next roofer in the search results. The phone goes in the header, big, and stays sticky on mobile.

   No real service-area map

   Homeowners type your city plus their suburb into Google. If your site does not say you serve their suburb, they bounce. A plain HTML list of every town and postal-code prefix you cover ranks better than a fancy map and answers the question instantly.

   Stock photos instead of your own roofs

   Roofing is a trust-first sale. Homeowners want to see crews, trucks, real jobs, real before-and-afters. Stock photos read as cover-up. A small library of your own photos beats a polished gallery of someone else's every time.

• Should residential and commercial roofing be on separate sites?

  Almost never. Two sites doubles the SEO work and confuses Google. One site with a clear residential section and a clear commercial section ranks better and reads cleaner. The exception is if commercial is more than seventy percent of your revenue and the buyers are property managers, not homeowners.
• How do we handle storm-season traffic spikes?

  A storm page that goes live the morning after a major event, with a short form, a phone number, and a plain explanation of the inspection process. The page stays up year round at a stable URL so Google ranks it before the next storm.
• What about insurance carrier links and claim forms?

  Plain text helps. Most homeowners do not know the difference between an adjuster and an inspector, so a one-paragraph explanation of how a claim works converts better than a logo wall of insurance carriers. Logo walls also create legal grey areas if a carrier objects.
• How do we compete with the out-of-province crews after a hailstorm?

  By making local verifiable on the page. A Calgary address, a year the business started, WCB and liability coverage stated plainly, named crew leads, and completed jobs in neighbourhoods a homeowner recognises. Every Calgary homeowner has heard about a storm-chaser warranty that vanished, so the moment you prove you are still going to be here, you are competing on trust instead of on price.
• Is an insurance claim page worth building if we do not handle claims ourselves?

  Yes, and it may be the most-read page on the site. Homeowners are not searching for who files the paperwork, they are searching for what happens now. A plain walkthrough of the deductible, the adjuster inspection, actual cash value versus replacement cost, and where your work fits answers the question, gets found year round, and costs you nothing but an honest afternoon of writing.
