Some unscrupulous roofers have been known to inflate damage claims, manipulate insurance companies, or even fabricate issues to profit from unnecessary repairs. They sometimes even offer to pay for a customer's insurance deductible, which is insurance fraud and punishable with fines and even jail time.
