Your Inspector Found Damage.
Here's What to Do Next.

Otter Quotes gets competing bids from qualified local contractors — based on a professional measurement of your property, not a contractor's walk-around estimate. Free for homeowners.

Your inspector documented the damage. That's the hard part done. Otter Quotes takes it from here — matching you with contractors who bid on real measurements so you know you're getting a fair price, not a number pulled from the air.

Bids on Exactly What You Need

We give contractors everything they need to bid accurately on your project — professional measurements, your insurance estimate, and your material preferences. So every bid you get is priced on the same scope of work. No contractor showing up to "take a look" and quoting from gut feel. No high-pressure sales pitch at your kitchen table. No being ghosted after a site visit.

Professional Measurements

Contractors bid on the same verified numbers — not their own estimates of your roof's size.

Apples-to-Apples Bids

Every contractor bids the same scope, so you can compare price, materials, and warranty side by side.

Questions?

Otter Quotes is 100% free for homeowners. We earn a fee from the contractor when a job completes — you pay nothing to use the platform.
Yes. Once you're inside the platform, we'll ask whether this is an insurance claim or an out-of-pocket repair. If it's a claim, we help you get your insurance estimate and connect you with contractors experienced in working with insurance adjusters. If it's out of pocket, we skip the insurance steps entirely and go straight to bids.
For a full replacement, yes — contractors need accurate measurements to give you a real bid, not a ballpark. We use Hover, a professional measurement service. Either you take photos with their app (takes about 15 minutes) or your inspector or agent can do it. The cost is $79, which is rebated if you use an Otter Quotes contractor. For smaller repairs, we may not need formal measurements.
Most homeowners see their first contractor bid within 24-48 hours of submitting their project. Contractors in your area are notified immediately when a new project is available.
You're never locked in. You can compare the bids you receive and choose whoever you want — including a contractor you already have a relationship with, if they're in the Otter Quotes network. You can also withdraw from the platform at any time before signing a contract.
