The “Free Roof” That Wasn’t Free
We were offered what sounded like a great opportunity from a door-to-door salesman: a “free” roof instead of a $12,000 project. It sounded straight forward so we signed the contract as millions do every year. It felt like we were getting a deal!
What we didn’t fully realize at the time was that buried in the fine print was an Assignment of Insurance Benefits (AIB) clause.
Using the AIB language in the contract, the contractor went directly to our insurance company and collected $40,000 for that same roof. We didn’t see a single dime of that claim, but we absolutely felt the consequences.
Shortly after, our insurance premium skyrocketed since the claim was now part of our loss history. The message from the carrier was clear: pay the new premium or be dropped. They told us,
“You can certainly try to shop around for other insurance, but good luck with that claim on your back.”
These days, most insurance companies in Florida will drop you with that kind of loss history on your record – and like they said, good luck finding new insurance.
If It Could Happen To Us…
If it happened to us, it can happen to anyone. We don’t want homeowners going through the same experience. We’ve spent decades in construction and still experienced how confusing and overwhelming roofing decisions and contracts can be.
Too often, people trust the process without realizing it usually isn’t built around their best interests. That’s why we built MSTG Roofing differently—focused on clarity, honesty, and doing right by the homeowner.
What you can expect from us:
- Clear, transparent pricing from the start
- No fine print or hidden clauses
- No “free roof” gimmicks or playing the insurance game
- Work done properly, permitted and built to last
We stand behind our work and our word because we’re here for the long run. Roofing shouldn’t feel stressful or uncertain, so you deserve to feel confident, informed, and taken care of. Our goal is simple: make sure you never fall into the same situation we did!

Built From Experience — Driven by Integrity
It was built from firsthand experience with how confusing, stressful, and sometimes misleading the roofing and insurance process can be.
We were homeowners navigating that situation ourselves. We saw contractors prioritize insurance payouts over people, and we experienced the long-term impact that process can leave behind.
That experience shaped everything about how we do business today.
We built MSTG Roofing around transparency, honest pricing, licensed and fully permitted work, and roofing solutions designed around what homeowners and businesses need — not what benefits insurance companies most.
