Building age is context, not proof of roof condition. Your visit confirms the condition.

Details changed. This is an example of the format, not a live property record.

We've delivered 1,400+ researched buildings across 9 states to roofing companies.

Get to the owner before the job goes out to bid.

An address tells you where a building is. It doesn't tell you why to call, who to ask for, or what to say. That's the research we do for you.

You do the roof work. I'll do the research.

I'm Ashish Panday, founder of Redstart. I built it because good commercial roofers lose work to whoever calls first, not to whoever does the best job. Our research system does the digging, and every building is checked before it reaches you. I work from Kathmandu on US business hours, so you hear back during your day.

What roofers ask us first.

Ask something else
Is there a contract?

No. Your plan renews every 4 weeks. Cancel anytime before the next 4 weeks start.

Do I need an app or an account?

No. You get a link. It opens on your phone or computer. No password.

Do you use AI?

Yes. AI helps us go through thousands of records fast. Then every building is checked before you get it. We link our sources so you can check them too.

Have you spoken to these building owners?

No. We research the building and the business. You make the first contact. Being on your list doesn't mean the owner has asked for a quote.

Where does the information come from?

Public records, permits, bid boards, company websites, manufacturer directories and aerial imagery. Every building lists its sources.

What contact details do I get?

The main business line and the role to ask for. We don't promise the owner's personal cell phone.

Is $500 every 4 weeks worth it?

If one of the 100 buildings becomes a job, it pays for many rounds. An 86,000 sq ft roof coated at $2.50 per sq ft is about a $215,000 job. Start with 3 free buildings and judge the research yourself.

Is my area exclusive?

Yes. On Core, one roofer per agreed area. On Premium, your whole county. We confirm the area in writing before you pay, and exclusivity lasts while your plan is active.

What if a building is wrong?

Closed, residential, outside your area, a duplicate, or already your customer counts as a wrong building. Tell us within the round and we replace it free within 48 hours.

Do you work in my state?

We work across the US. Tell us your towns and we'll confirm coverage before you pay.

How do payment and cancellation work?

Core and Premium are priced every 4 weeks, not by calendar month. Cancel before your next round. Core, 3 rounds is a one-time payment for 12 weeks and ends unless you choose to renew.

What is the refund policy?

Research starts as soon as you pay, so we don't refund a round that has started. Wrong buildings are replaced free. Billing errors and confirmed coverage failures before research starts are refunded. Read the full Refund and Cancellation Policy. Read the full policy.
