Software for siding and window contractors: the long sale and the warranty behind it.
Exterior work is a big ticket with a long decision. The pipeline, the three-option estimate, the follow-up and the warranty are the whole business. HomeMaxx Pro carries all four, and the Homeowner request and the Verified shield are what the roofing CRMs do not have.

- Hurricane season: the house, the plan and the paperwork
June first is the start, and the preparation that matters is done by then, not the week a storm is named. The roof, the openings, the water, the paper and the thirty-day rule on flood insurance.

A sprinkler system left on its spring settings is the most common cause of a rotten sill and a wet basement that nobody can explain. The heads, the schedule, the backflow preventer and the fixes.
