No. Facilitate is a platform that allows homeowners to select a rated project manager and a rated roof installation crew for your residential roofing project. Upon doing so, the homeowner can get online quotes from them to assist in the replacement of their roof, to include selecting materials which are bought online from Facilitate and delivered to their home. It is designed to cut out as much expense in replacing a residential roof as damaging storms are more common and insurance is becoming more expensive.
No, Facilitate is an online platform that helps a homeowner facilitate the general contracting process of a more complex project than most traditional DIY projects. Facilitate does this by providing an interactive forum for homeowners to meet project managers online that are local and rated and help guide the homeowner in making decisions, taking measurements, ordering materials and overseeing a hired crew, all for a flat rate fee. Cews for projects like roofing, siding or gutters can all be found on Facilitate and invited to bid a project presented by the homeowner.
All payments are made through the Facilitate platform and confirmation of payment is made by the project manager, crew and a receipt is provided when materials are purchased.
