Text message marketing for roofing contractors

Stop missing out on jobs due to slow follow up. Launch Control helps your team follow up faster, automate outreach, and stay in front of homeowners before the next contractor gets there.

Built for the Way Roofers Close Jobs

Launch Control supports every stage of your sales pipeline, from storm response to repeat customer outreach.

Storm Response

Send geo-targeted blast messages to homeowners in storm-affected zip codes within hours. Capture insurance work before competitors knock the door.

Insurance Follow-up

Keep claims moving with automated check-ins on adjuster meetings, supplement approvals, and scope changes.

Door-Knock Lead Follow-up

Capture canvassing leads in the field and trigger automated nurture sequences. Turn a 30-second front-door talk into a booked inspection.

Inspection Reminders

Reduce no-shows for inspections, roof measurements, and adjuster appointments with timed reminders. Keep your crew's calendar working at full capacity.

Reviews & Referrals

Trigger post-job texts asking for Google reviews and neighbor referrals while satisfaction is fresh. The 24-hour window matters.

Seasonal Re-engagement

Re-activate past customers with timed seasonal check-ins for inspections, gutter cleaning, or pre-storm prep.

Why use SMS for Roofing?

In roofing, speed wins jobs. Homeowners shopping after a hailstorm aren’t waiting for you to check voicemail. They’re calling the next number on the list. Text messaging is the only channel that reaches them where they actually are: phone in hand, ready to schedule.

Launch Control gives roofing teams the speed and scale they need. Automate post-canvas follow-up, send storm response blasts to entire zip codes, and keep insurance supplement threads moving – all from one platform. More inspections booked, fewer leads lost to slow response.

Benefits of SMS marketing for roofing contractors

  • Launch large-scale storm response campaigns directly from your truck or office.
  • Automate post-inspection follow-up so no warm lead falls through the cracks.
  • Keep insurance supplement updates flowing: adjusters, homeowners, and your sales rep all in sync.
  • Reach homeowners within 5 minutes of inquiry. The difference between closing and losing the job.
  • Track every touchpoint across your roofing sales pipeline with built-in analytics.
  • Send personalized outreach to canvassed leads, past customers, and storm-affected zip codes at scale.
