As a top-performing real estate agent who sells homes all over Ohio and hosts a television show called American Dream TV Selling Cleveland, Teresa Slowey Whitham of Howard Hanna knows how important a roof is to selling a home. One that’s pristine and well-maintained can attract buyers, while one that’s not structurally sound or aging can scare off potential buyers or even sink a deal following a home inspection.
Two years ago, after her gutter fell off in a storm and she needed a new roof, Teresa called Spartan StormShield for help, based on a neighbor’s recommendation. She was so impressed with co-owner Jeramie Lopez and staff that Spartan StormShield has become her go-to “superpower” recommendation.
I caught up with Teresa to find out why.
Q: What were your concerns before contacting Spartan StormShield?
A: I plan to stay in my home for a long time and want to invest in the best. I interviewed two other roofers in addition to Jeramie and Spartan StormShield was the obvious choice. Jeramie and the team were professional and I took comfort and trust that they were going to be there to help with the insurance claim.
Q: What was your first impression of working with Spartan StormShield?
A: From the get-go, I was impressed. Everyone I worked with, from the person answering the phone to the installers, was friendly and knowledgeable. The roofers who came to our home explained the process in great detail, which I appreciated.
Q: What made Spartan StormShield stand out from other options?
A: Jeramie’s conversations with the insurance adjustors about our storm damage went smoothly. He knows how to talk to these people. He was polite, informed and always answered my calls, and showed up on time.
Q: Tell me about the consultation? What was your experience like?
A: I felt like Jeramie really listened to everything I said and shared my concerns. He was value-oriented, not price-oriented.
Q: Did you learn anything new about your roof?
A: I was surprised to learn my roof would have had a lot of life in it if it wasn’t damaged by the storm. Through the selection process, I reviewed different shingles and found out about the various structural components. I was also a proponent of upgrading to my new gutters. This is a big home with lots of running water to manage.
Q: What were the installers like?
A: Very friendly, safety-oriented, efficient and meticulously clean.
Q: Did you feel your new roof was a great value?
A: Yes. I wanted to make the smartest investment, and I couldn’t have made a better choice than Spartan StormShield. I often work with home sellers who need to repair or replace quickly, and Spartan StormShield has always risen to any challenge. It seems like most homeowners don’t realize the condition their roof is really in until it’s too late. The roof can be a critical part of negotiations. Spartan StormShield is like a superpower to my business. In my black book of the best local contractors you can always depend on, Spartan StormShield’s name is at the top.
