Default Roof or Attic Inspection Calls - -

Have you getting LOTS of these calls lately offering a free 20 minute inspection of your roof or attic?

It seems like we've been getting at least two or three of them a day for the past week or so.

Have you had any storms lately? We always seem to get a bunch of those after we've had a big storm come thru.

We've had a lot of rain lately, but not what I would consider storms.

I keep getting phone calls about a free trip- thanking me for staying at one of their luxury hotels. (didn't) They are local calls so it trips me up.
The last time I raised my voice to the caller and she kept right on going. I told my son and he said "Mom, it's a recording" Oops!!

Those calls for roof inspection are probably local businesses looking for more business in slower periods. Now those calls for the resort....

I've been getting those annoying calls thanking me for staying at their hotel and offering me a free trip on my cell phone lately. That really annoys me. I usually answer my cell because very few people have that number.
