My Advice? Give Up On The Lawsuit!

I do not know of one single person who has been paid under the terms of the Hardishake lawsuit settlement.

That’s right… I’ve never, ever, not one single time, have had the court pay out a single dime on a Hardishake roof claim where I was involved in the process. Sadly, I’ve heard many more stories from people I have eventually helped who have told me the same thing - they did not get a dime either.

I’m sure there are people out there who collected money on the lawsuit. Surely, somebody was able to get some money – I just don’t know any of them. 

Here’s the real problem: 

There are many exclusions outlined in the lawsuit settlement that make it virtually impossible to get paid. Even if you could jump through every hoop, clear ever obstacle and squeeze some money out of the settlement, the terms of the lawsuit pay far below the fair market value for replacing your roof.

If you can’t replace your Hardishake with another roof of like kind and value because you didn’t get enough money, you would be stuck with putting a cheap roof on your home.

On the other hand, several insurance companies are aware that your roof could be a huge financial liability. They are not anxious to help you with your faulty roof. You need professional help.

With that in mind, let me share with you a few Hardishake stories:

  • A couple had picked out their dream home in Mira Vista but could not close because their insurance agent refused to cover the roof. That’s right – it was a Hardishake.
  • A Plano man was given a buy-out package from his new company but could not collect because of his Hardishake roof. If he didn’t have that roof, he could have easily accepted the promotion. 
  • A family wants to pull the equity out of their home but their roof raises red flags during the appraisal process. Obviously, most home inspectors will spot defective roofs quickly. 
  • A man buys a home and is able to get coverage with a major insurance carrier. A few months before he is to renew, his local agent calls with a warning… “Do NOT let them [the underwriter] know you have a Hardishake roof”.
