We audited a roofing contractor's SEO engagement and found massive fraud — months of retainer payments, zero deliverables. If you're paying an agency and not seeing results, you deserve an independent investigation.
An independent Local Search & Digital Presence Audit built specifically for roofing contractors who want the truth about what their agency has — and hasn't — been doing.

Roofing is one of the highest-value local service verticals — and that makes it a magnet for SEO agencies that know you need leads but won't know whether the work was actually done. These are the warning signs we hear from roofing contractors constantly.
Monthly PDFs filled with branded graphics and vague "activity summaries" — but your phone isn't ringing any more than before you hired them.
GBP optimization and ongoing management was in your contract. But your profile hasn't had a new post, photo, or Q&A update in months.
Your agency promised to create content targeting storm damage, insurance claims, and emergency repairs. Nothing was published when the season hit.
Angi, HomeAdvisor, Houzz, Thumbtack, BBB — your citations are inconsistent or missing entirely, despite directory submissions being a paid line item.
They promised to help you build review velocity on Google. You're still sitting at the same star count with the same 12 reviews from three years ago.
"We improved 14 keywords this month" — but the report shows no proof, no screenshots, and no way for you to independently verify a single claim.
The only way to know for certain is an independent audit that compares your contract against documented, verifiable activity — not what your agency tells you they did.
A roofing contractor came to us with a simple concern: they'd been paying a marketing agency a substantial monthly retainer for local SEO and their phones weren't ringing any differently than before they signed. They wanted an independent set of eyes — not their agency's word for it.
What we uncovered wasn't just underperformance. It was fraud. The agency had billed for months of contracted work — content creation, GBP management, service area pages, directory listings, review outreach — and had produced virtually none of it.
The audit took less than a week. The documented findings gave the roofing company everything they needed to understand exactly what happened, what was owed, and how to move forward. That investigation became the foundation for the service we now offer every roofing contractor.
These findings are drawn directly from the roofing contractor investigation. Agency and client names have been removed. Every line item reflects actual contract language versus documented activity.
This is a real roofing contractor's story. They paid thousands of dollars per month for every one of these deliverables — and received none of them. Without an independent audit, they would have kept paying indefinitely. Your audit includes a complete contracted vs. delivered breakdown for your own engagement.
