Common Questions

Is this insurance savings calculator really free?
Yes, the estimate is free. You do not need to create an account, but the detailed results ask for your contact details. Calculations run in your browser. Benefitra collects information when you submit a form or request a report, and this tool may save what you enter as you work. Analytics cookies are used only with your consent. See our Privacy Policy.
How accurate are these estimates?
The calculations use industry-standard data and published rate tables, so they provide a reliable directional estimate. Your actual costs will depend on your specific situation, location, and the providers you work with. We recommend using these numbers as a starting point for getting real quotes.
What should I do with these results?
Use them as a baseline for informed conversations with brokers, PEOs, or insurance providers. Having these numbers before you talk to a salesperson puts you in a much stronger negotiating position and helps you evaluate whether the proposals you receive are competitive.

What drives a roofer's insurance cost

Insurance is one of the largest controllable line items a roof-work company carries, and small changes move it a lot. This calculator estimates where a roofer's premiums sit today and where the realistic savings are, using the cost drivers that actually move roof-work rates rather than generic averages.

A high experience modifier alone can swing workers compensation premiums by double digits, and misclassified payroll quietly inflates the bill every year. The calculator helps you see which driver is costing the most so you can target the fix that pays back fastest.

Once you know the savings, the Benefits ROI Calculator shows how redirecting those dollars into a stronger benefits package can also cut the crew turnover that drives claims in the first place.

What drives a roofer's premium:

  • Experience modification rate
  • Claims history
  • How payroll is classified
  • Safety record and program credits

Fall protection is the leading safety requirement and claims driver in roof work; the baseline standards come from OSHA.

Frequently asked questions

Why are roof-work insurance rates so high?

Roof work is classified as high risk because of fall exposure and physical claims, so workers compensation and liability rates start high. That also means there is more room to save through safety credits, clean claims history, and correct classification.

What is an experience modification rate?

It is a factor that adjusts your workers compensation premium based on your claims history versus similar businesses. A modifier below the industry baseline lowers your premium; above it raises the cost.

How fast can a roof-work company lower its premiums?

Some levers, like correcting payroll classification, can help at the next policy period. Others, like improving the experience modifier, build over a few years.
