we are on skool!
A New Adventure for Lion Guard: We’re Live on Skool 🦁📚
Over the past few months, something interesting started happening at Lion Guard Roofing.
Contractors, homeowners, and even adjusters kept asking the same questions:
“How are you getting approvals without fighting?”
“What does your documentation actually look like?”
“How do you keep jobs so clean after the sale?”
The answer kept coming back to one thing: the Lion Guard Proof Pack.
So instead of explaining it one inspection at a time, we decided to build something bigger.
We’re Officially Live on Skool
As of 12/23, Lion Guard Roofing is officially live on Skool, and we couldn’t be more excited about it.
We launched with 7 courses, each designed to be practical, straightforward, and usable in the real world. Every course includes 4–5 focused lessons, built to help contractors improve inspections, documentation, communication, and production — without gimmicks or sales pressure.
This isn’t theory. It’s the same process we use every day in the field.
Templates That Do the Heavy Lifting
One of the things we’re most excited about is the growing library of templates and tools inside the community.
From Proof Pack field checklists to production handoff sheets, documentation guides, and comparison tools, everything is built to remove guesswork and create clarity. These are the same tools we use internally at Lion Guard to keep jobs organized and approvals clean.
If it’s in the Skool community, it’s something we actually use.
Proof Pack Going Strong 💪
And yes — the Proof Pack is still doing what it does best.
Just last week, we had yet another adjuster-free approval. No back-and-forth. No arguing opinions. Just clear documentation, consistent patterning, and supporting evidence presented the right way.
That’s exactly why we believe so strongly in teaching this system. When documentation is done correctly, the process gets simpler for everyone involved.
Just Getting Started
This Skool journey is still new, but the momentum is real. We’re excited to continue building, refining, and sharing what’s working — and just as excited to learn alongside the community as it grows.
If you’ve ever believed that education, documentation, and trust matter more than pressure tactics, you’ll feel right at home.
We can’t wait to see where this adventure goes next.

Lion Guard Roofing Earns CertainTeed Master Craftsman Status
At Lion Guard Roofing, we believe craftsmanship isn’t just about installing a roof—it’s about doing things the right way, every single time. That commitment is why we’re proud to announce that Lion Guard Roofing has achieved CertainTeed Master Craftsman status.
Becoming a Master Craftsman is not automatic. It requires advanced training, proven installation knowledge, and a deep understanding of roofing systems, materials, and industry best practices. This designation reflects our dedication to ongoing education and our refusal to cut corners—something our customers immediately benefit from.
Why Master Craftsman Matters to Homeowners
Roofs are complex systems, not just shingles nailed to plywood. As a CertainTeed Master Craftsman contractor, our team is trained to identify proper installation methods, ventilation requirements, flashing details, and manufacturer specifications that protect your home long-term. That means fewer issues, better performance, and workmanship that stands up to Wisconsin’s harsh weather.
Homeowners gain confidence knowing their roof is being installed or repaired by professionals who meet one of the highest standards in the industry.
Building Trust With Insurance Companies
This certification doesn’t just matter to homeowners—it matters to insurance companies too.
Insurance carriers look for consistency, accuracy, and professionalism when reviewing claims. As a Master Craftsman contractor, Lion Guard Roofing speaks the same language as adjusters. Our inspections, documentation, and repair recommendations are rooted in manufacturer standards and industry-accepted practices.
That credibility helps establish trust during the claims process. Insurance companies recognize that when Lion Guard Roofing is involved, the scope of work is accurate, justified, and compliant. This often leads to smoother claim approvals, fewer disputes, and faster resolutions for our customers.
Our Commitment Going Forward
Achieving CertainTeed Master Craftsman status is not the finish line—it’s a benchmark we hold ourselves to on every project. From storm damage inspections to full roof replacements, our goal is to deliver expert-level workmanship backed by training, experience, and integrity.
When you choose Lion Guard Roofing, you’re choosing a contractor who has invested in education, earned industry recognition, and built trust with both homeowners and insurance professionals.
Protecting your pride, one roof at a time.
The Proof Is in the Approval! Two Proof Packs approved - no adjuster
At Lion Guard Roofing, we don’t wait on insurance companies — we prove our claims from day one. Over the past few weeks, two homeowners experienced firsthand the power of our Lion Guard Proof Pack, and the results were nothing short of incredible.
In both recent cases, insurance companies never even sent an adjuster to the property.
Instead, they reviewed the documentation, photos, testing, measurements, and estimates included in each Proof Pack — and approved the claims based entirely on the strength and quality of the evidence.
One claim was approved just 9 days after filing.
The other was approved in 11 days.
No site visit. No delays. No lowball offers.
Just approvals.
Why the Proof Pack Works
Most insurance claims fail because they’re built on opinions.
Adjusters are under pressure. Homeowners are confused. Contractors submit vague photos, incomplete reports, and generic estimates. The result? Delays, denials, and frustration.
The Lion Guard Proof Pack is different.
We document your roof like an expert witness — not like a handyman with a camera phone.
Every Proof Pack includes:
Clear photo documentation
Forensic inspection details
Measurements & slope data
Repairability analysis
Material identification
Code-compliant notes
A professionally structured estimate
When an insurance company opens one of our Proof Packs, they’re not guessing.
They’re seeing the full picture.
Immense Value for Homeowners
For the homeowner, the value is massive:
✅ Faster approvals
✅ Less back-and-forth
✅ No adjuster scheduling
✅ No arguing over scope
✅ No confusion
✅ No unnecessary stress
In both cases, homeowners didn’t have to defend their roof.
The Proof Pack did it for them.
Insurance Companies Are Approving Because Requirements Are Met
Insurance companies are not looking for conflict — they’re looking for proof.
When a claim arrives complete, accurate, and professionally documented, the process becomes simple:
Review. Verify. Approve.
Our Proof Pack format meets the insurance carrier’s requirements on the front end instead of forcing the homeowner to chase them after the fact.
That’s why approvals are happening without inspections.
Because the proof is already loaded in the file.
The "Prove It" Method Works
The Prove It Method isn’t magic.
It’s process.
It’s documentation.
It’s precision.
It’s experience.
It’s preparation.
And it works.
Built by Experts, Trusted by Insurance
This system is powered by the process developed by Mathew Mulholland — a simple, powerful approach focused on proving loss instead of hoping it’s recognized.
At Lion Guard Roofing, we’ve taken that process and implemented it at the highest level.
We don’t just install roofs.
We present cases.
When insurance companies see our packages, they see:
Expertise
Structure
Professionalism
Consistency
And trust is built.
Your Roof Deserves Proof, Not Guesswork
If you’ve experienced storm damage and want faster approvals with fewer headaches, the Proof Pack is your advantage.
It’s not just paperwork.
It’s your leverage.

Insurance Adjusters: Roof Damage
When your home takes a hit from hail, wind, or severe storms, the first call many homeowners make is to their insurance company. Soon after, an insurance adjuster will visit your property to assess the damage. While this step is crucial, it can also be confusing and sometimes stressful. Call Lion Guard Roofing FIRST! At Lion Guard Roofing, we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners through this process — and we know what it takes to make sure your roof damage is properly documented and covered.
What an Insurance Adjuster Does
Insurance adjusters represent your insurance company. Their job is to:
Inspect your roof and property for storm-related damage.
Document what they find.
Determine what repairs or replacements your policy will cover.
It’s important to remember that the adjuster works for the insurance company — not the homeowner. That’s why having a trusted roofing contractor by your side makes all the difference.
Challenges homeowners face
Many homeowners assume the adjuster will catch everything, but that isn’t always the case. Common challenges include:
Overlooked damage: Small dents, bruised shingles, or gutter damage may not be noted.
Partial coverage offers: Sometimes only a portion of the roof or repairs are approved.
Technical language: Insurance paperwork can be overwhelming and full of jargon.
At Lion Guard Roofing, we recommend scheduling your roofing contractor before filing a claim. Here’s why:
Expert eyes: We know where to look and what hail or wind damage really looks like.
Documentation: We provide “proof packages” to ensure your approval with us or your choice of contractor.
Representation: We ensure the scope of damage is fully understood and insurnace adjuster objections are handled prior to becoming an objection.
Think of it this way: the adjuster represents the insurance company. You deserve someone representing you.
Tips for homeowners dealing with Adjusters
Don’t go it alone — always have a contractor present.
Stay organized — keep notes, photos, and copies of all correspondence.
Know your policy — understand deductibles and coverage limits.
Act quickly — most policies have strict deadlines for filing storm damage claims.

Hail Damage: What Last Season Taught Us
How hail impacts our roofs
When severe storms rolled through our area last season, homeowners were left with more than just fallen branches and waterlogged lawns. Hail — sometimes the size of golf balls — pounded rooftops, leaving behind hidden damage that many people didn’t even notice right away.
Hailstones may look harmless, but when they strike with force, they bruise shingles, knock off protective granules, and weaken the overall structure of your roof. Over time, this damage leads to leaks, reduced energy efficiency, and a shorter roof lifespan. Even small hail can create problems that insurance companies recognize as legitimate damage.
According to storm reports, our community saw multiple rounds of hailstorms, making it one of the most active storm seasons in recent years. Roofing crews across the state were busy inspecting and replacing roofs that showed signs of damage. Many homeowners who acted quickly were able to get full replacements covered by insurance, preventing future headaches and costly repairs.
One of the biggest mistakes homeowners made last season was waiting too long. By the time leaks appeared or shingles began to curl, the damage had already spread — sometimes leading to partial coverage or even denied claims. Insurance companies typically require claims to be filed within a certain timeframe after a storm, so delays can cost you.
Hail Damage: Roof Replacements
why replace my roof
If you live in Milwaukee, Waukesha, Walworth, Racine, Kenosha or Washington Co, you know last season brought some of the heaviest hail we’ve seen in years. Homeowners across the area are now discovering what roofing contractors already know hail damage doesn’t always show up right away, but it can seriously shorten the life of your roof.
When hail strikes shingles, it can:
Knock off protective granules that shield your roof from UV rays.
Leave dents, bruises, and cracks that weaken the shingle’s integrity.
Compromise flashing, vents, and gutters.
These small issues turn into roof leaks and costly interior damage if left unchecked. That’s why hail damage roof inspections are so important after every major storm.
Insurance companies often require claims to be filed within 6–12 months of a storm. If you haven’t scheduled a storm damage roof inspection, you could be leaving money on the table.
