Oh no. The old dogs are about to start HATIN! Great work Youngblood. Way to get out there and grind!

Already did 😂😂😂 you should see comments in group

I am 22 years old and I genuinely had the same idea to use those drones to do inspections and be more technology driven to gain more sales, I’m happy to see him do things I will be doing and actually succeeding

[@roofimprove5410]

Easier said than done but doable. If your good with computers and know a little coding, that will take you far.

[@saulesquivel7085]

@@roofimprove5410 that’s why I spent most of my younger years in social media and learning different things that may or may not benefit me in the future and now that I’m setting everything up for my company, I feel like I have a advantage against other companies in my area

[@aaronlarsen612]

Too many people selling GAF out there. I like to stand out with my boy Dmitry and sell IKO Dynasty. Better quality, better price, and bigger shingle = less bundles per job.

[@arnoldoortiz6872]

How was business for them for year 2? Would love to see a follow up as well.

Wild story! Can we get a follow up on year 2?

What drone and head set is used here?

Okay but gaf is garbage though. I started my company at 25 haven’t done that much in sales but gaf is some bs

Flying a drone over a customer's house BEFORE speaking with them about it is a way to land yourself in hot water.

[@bluemelon7818]

Unless they have a commercial drone license they’d get ducked if it crashes on their house

[@AAA-vk9vp]

no laws or regulations on that

[@davidtorres6725]

Check your state guidelines for flying drones for commercial use.

[@theroofingguys918]

Drones are federally regulated by the FAA. I'm licensed. There is no regulation against flying over property... think about it, states can't regulate whether an airplane can fly over your house or not.

[@bluemelon7818]

Federal law says you need a commercial drone license to use a drone for commercial use.

[@JL-hw6lo]

Hmmm something seems off 😂… I’d believe he sold roughly 5-7 mill in the year which is definitely easy enough I don’t know bout no 17Mill they would have scaled the business pretty big. From my research the company isn’t as large as he makes it out to be 😳😂

[@jcmoye1]

Don't believe it! Doesn't add up

[@futurergd]

How are you trying to add anything up without having the proper info? He obviously has a sales team and not selling all on his own.

who installs pannels on old rood

[@judgeyourself8213]

What's the exact drone he is using to get these estimates? Can someone help me with actual url to the drone he is using? Thanks

[@grantpardo3758]

DJI FPV just google it. I have a mini pro 3 I've been using for marketing (and now for inspections since I sprained my ankle). DJI has killer hardware and software and you can what you need with all the goodies under 1500

As the kids say 'I'm sus'. Guy is 22 and say's he 'found that GAF lasts the longest'....certainly not through personal experience. Could be wrong but.....

[@saulesquivel7085]

I’m 22 as well and I’ve been in the industry with my dad since 12 and doing sales since 15, I can definitely tell what brands are good for my area and which ones are complete garbage, and it’s all based on experience ( installing or seeing people install, doing roof inspections and finding what shingle was used and when the roof was installed ) there’s no rocket science to this, you just have to learn through your own experiences or someone else’s and not repeat what doesn’t work in your area

[@mattaconda77]

@@saulesquivel7085 my experience has been that GAF has cut a lot of corners to maximize profit. They were the gold standard 20 years ago, but thinning out products more than competitors, handling warranty claims very slowly, poor representation (at least in my area), working against local suppliers by selling to box stores and non-support of master elites has soured my opinion of them over the years. Perhaps in your area its all good 🤷‍♂

[@saulesquivel7085]

GAF in my area is mid quiality, CertainTeed is the best, but we can hardly get the material, and IKO is starting to make a comeback after being the worst and having so many problems in the past 6-8 years

[@cody33853]

How do most people react to you flying your drone over there house prior to asking?

[@ajdiaz4400]

That’s what I was wondering. It’s illegal to fly drones over someone property without permission in my state. One of my client’s neighbors threatened to shoot my drone down one time when it was on my clients property 😂

[@sparksmcgee6641]

As he said. He's in the neighborhood doing work, the neighbors will consider him vetted. Maybe once a year he'll get a negative interaction. When you knock on the door to give someone something useful for free they won't care.

[@shanemichael6938]

To be honest with you we just picked up the check from the install we were beside that day, upon leaving the custome with solar was going into his house with his daughter. I stopped them and we are in the claims process. So to answer your question he was happy about it.

Impossible for this kid to have that much capital to make this much in sales. Shady AF man, should not be possible right out the gate.

[@MichaelMantion]

Can we all agree that asphalt shingles look like crap. It doesn't matter what the color is or brand. Any roofing system looks better. The only roof I would put on my house right now is metal roofing but there are some ceramics that look interesting.

[@ToddBizCoach]

90% of today s homeowners disagree with you. They have an asphalt roof . If you own a barn or metal shed then a metal roof might be a good choice.

[@DavidSummerly]

Asphalt is definitely one of the least sustainable options. Not nearly as long lasting as we’re told, especially through hail, wind, etc. Euroshield ♻️ Rubber Roofing holds up to storms better than any other residential roofing material.

[@ToddBizCoach]

@@DavidSummerly In the Midwest an asphalt roof lasts 20-25 years on average. 90% of homeowners own a roof made of fiberglass asphalt shingles. That % may be higher in the Midwest. They do so because it makes financial sense compared to metal. It also looks to be the normal for a residential house in most parts of the country.

[@MichaelMantion]

@@ToddBizCoach 90% of homeowners don't know there are choices. Our house has a new roof when we bought it. We will be putting metal roof over it whenever material prices drop substantially or if there is roof damage that needs to be repaired. Metal roofs look awesome. Its sad you think orly a barn or shed deserves metal roofs.

[@MichaelMantion]

@@ToddBizCoach Asphalt roofs are the normal and that is sad. People need to do some research before they have roof work done. Any roofer that doesn't explain alternatives to asphalt should be locked up for fraud. If the homeowner still chooses asphalt they deserve it.

[@edwardb911]

No roofer actually cares what your house looks like they only care about the money. Every single sales guy is only door knocking because of money if he was making half of what he’s making I can bet you a million dollars he would not be knocking.

[@roofingdyi6.7powerstroke8]

60k for a roof????

[@manwiththeplan7143]

Its probably like 20k alone to remove and reset those panles

[@EHT44]

Most solar company remove and replace within there warranty. I'm in the wrong market if they getting 60k for that roof.

[@danielschlear4581]

I don’t know how 60k confuses you ? I’m sure you did all the measurements, know the grade of shingles the customer choose , and figured out all the extras the Home owner wanted. Never put down another companies prices if they can get it for quality work.
