El negocio de techos sigue siendo cíclico, pero la tormenta perfecta de eventos climáticos severos, la interrupción de la cadena de suministro, la escasez de mano de obra y una supervisión de seguros más estricta crea nuevos desafíos para los contratistas de techos.

Los contratistas que priorizan la calidad, mejoran su documentación e invierten en el desarrollo de la fuerza laboral serán los que mejor naveguen los riesgos crecientes, y protejan tanto los techos como sus ganancias, en esta era de costos de reclamaciones en aumento. Aquí hay cinco razones por las que las aseguradoras están apretando su control sobre el mercado de techos.

Los costos de las reclamaciones se disparan:

Los costos de reparación y reemplazo de techos en EE. UU. alcanzaron casi $31 mil millones en 2024, un aumento del 30% desde 2022, principalmente debido a eventos climáticos más frecuentes y severos.

Las aseguradoras aprietan las riendas:

Las compañías de seguros están aumentando los deducibles, exigiendo documentación más estricta y examinando más de cerca la condición de los techos, lo que hace que las reclamaciones sean más difíciles de asegurar y más lentas de pagar.

Materiales y mano de obra impulsan la inflación:

Los aranceles, las interrupciones en la cadena de suministro y la escasez crónica de mano de obra calificada elevan los costos y salarios de los techos a nuevos máximos.

Los techos viejos presentan un mayor riesgo:

Casi el 40% de los hogares estadounidenses tienen techos en condiciones entre moderadas y malas, lo que aumenta significativamente la probabilidad y el costo de las pérdidas.

La adaptación es clave:

Los contratistas pueden mitigar el riesgo invirtiendo en materiales resistentes a los impactos, adoptando mejores herramientas de documentación y expandiéndose a servicios de techado resilientes y de valor agregado.
