Write for Us Roofing: Roofing Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Roofing content online is mostly shingle comparisons and repair guides. What this blog wants is the business side: how a roofing company wins bids, handles seasons, builds a crew, told by someone who has been up the ladder or run the firm.

My readers run small businesses, and many of them are contractors or sell to them. They want steady work, better margins and fewer headaches, so a roofing post has to come from real jobs and real numbers.

60-second roofing guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Do you work in or run the roofing business you describe
• Do you have a real job count, close rate or result
• Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
• Have you removed any pitch for one company

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

• How a roofing company kept work coming through the slow season
• Estimating and pricing jobs so they stay profitable, with the method
• Getting found locally and winning bids, with the leads it brought
• Building and keeping a reliable crew, with what changed
• Insurance and storm work handled well, with the lessons

If your post could be published on any roofing site with the logo swapped, it is not for us.

What we don't accept

• Material guides with no business lesson
• Promotion of one product, brand or contractor
• Generic small business tips with a roofing label
• Previously published posts republished from another site

What you get

• Your article in front of an engaged audience of business owners, marketers and founders
• One relevant, contextual link back to your own site
• A byline and the credibility of an established, high-traffic blog
• Editorial help to make the piece as strong as it can be before it goes live

How to submit

Send your pitch or draft through the contact form. Include the topic, the one specific problem the post solves, and a line on your first-hand experience with it. One idea per pitch works best. You will hear back on whether it is a fit before you write the full draft.

What a strong roofing pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about the pros and cons of metal roofs." A strong one says "Our roofing firm raised its bid win rate from about one in five to one in three by sending drone photos of the homeowner's own roof with every quote, so I want to show the photos, the quote layout and the numbers." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• Surviving the slow season
• Estimating that stays profitable
• Winning local bids
• Keeping a good crew
• A contrarian view on door knocking

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept roofing guest posts?

Yes. Roofing guest posts are welcome from writers who have done the work and can share what happened. We publish practical articles with real examples and decline material guides with no business lesson.

What roofing topics do you accept?

We accept running a roofing company, estimating and pricing, local marketing and bids, crews and hiring, and insurance and storm work. The common thread is a specific lesson with a result attached, not a general overview.

Can I include a link back to my own site?

One contextual link back to your own site is fine when it is relevant and helps the reader. Posts written purely to build a backlink with no real value are not published.

Do you accept previously published content?

No. Every submission must be original and not published anywhere else first, including your own blog, Medium, LinkedIn, or a guest slot on another site under a different name. Republished or lightly reworded content gets declined, and we check before it goes live.

How do I submit a roofing guest post?

Send your pitch through the contact form with the topic, the specific result or lesson you will cover, and a line on your own experience doing the work you are writing about. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before writing a full draft.

Do you accept sponsored or commercial partnerships?

Commercial and partnership enquiries are handled separately from editorial guest posts. If you are a brand or agency wanting to work together rather than pitch an article, say so in the contact form and you will get the right details back.

How long should a roofing guest post be?

There is no fixed word count, but posts that do well here usually run from 1,000 to 1,800 words. Long enough to show the example and the numbers, short enough that a busy owner finishes it. Cut anything that repeats what the reader already knows.

What makes a roofing pitch stand out?

A real result in the first sentence. Say what you did, what changed and over what period, then say what the reader will be able to copy. For example: Our roofing firm raised its bid win rate from about one in five to one in three by sending drone photos of the homeowner's own roof with every quote, so I want to show the photos, the quote layout and the numbers.
