Executive Summary

The Granite State Roofing Site Inspection

Granite State Roofing (granitestateroofing.com) is Site Inspected against the Fervor Grade™ National Site Inspection rubric across the 5 highest-conversion pages on the site. Final weighted score: 50/100 — Grade F, Condemned.

Capture Context

This Site Inspection reflects what automated visitors see. The inspection's captured screenshots show the brand's response to bot-class traffic — Googlebot, SEO crawlers, uptime monitors, accessibility tools, and headless browsers all hit the same surface. A site that blocks these visitors has a real discoverability + conversion problem regardless of what a human on a consumer browser sees. The score below is the correct read of that bot-class view.

  • No prior score.json existed at evidence/granite-state-roofing/score.json — confirmed via initial directory listing. This score is the first-write for the brand against Fervor Grade 2.7 rubric using fresh 2026-05-15 captures (manifest.json discovered_at=2026-05-15T12:27:59, architecture.json detected_at=2026-05-15T12:28:00, score-evidence-digest.json built_at=2026-05-15T12:41:04). score.beforeRecrawl.json from a prior pipeline pass is retained on disk but not used as input. Modifier sign rules respected: M-MX-02 NEGATIVE-only applied negative; M-TR-01 NEGATIVE-only applied negative; M-CR-01 and M-EL-08 not applicable (no qualifying POSITIVE signals — no manufacturer creds, no exceptional offer, no distinctive UX advantage).

Strengths Identified

What's Done Well

Fervor Grade™ — Top Strengths

Brand Foundations in Place

  • Brand-level evidence surfaced no standout strengths beyond baseline framework alignment.
Critical Conversion Failures

Conversion Killers

Fervor Grade™ — Most Damaging Findings

Conversion Machinery Below Industry Bar

  • ✗ Below Industry Bar

    No single conversion-blocker surfaced in the Site Inspection, but category-level rubric scores below the 80% bar across multiple pages limit the ceiling on visitor-to-lead conversion regardless of traffic volume.

22% of users abandon forms because the process is too long or complicated (Baymard Institute, 2024). 62.45% of users browse on mobile (Statcounter, 2025).
Revenue Projection

Revenue Impact

Conversion Gap Calculation

Step 1 — Traffic Baseline (estimated): Granite State Roofing draws an estimated 5,000–15,000 monthly organic visitors from search and direct traffic. Estimate from third-party tools; actual variance ±30–50%.

Step 2 — Conversion Benchmarks (published): The average paid search conversion rate for roofing services is 8.0–12.0% (LocaliQ 2025, 3,200+ campaigns). The average CPC is $8–$18. Average project value for this brand: $8,000–$25,000 (mid: $16,500) (trade-segment benchmark fallback (no brand-specific data)).

Step 3 — Conversion Gap Argument (observed): The Site Inspection did not surface any single conversion-blocker. Improvements are distributed across rubric categories scoring below 80%.

Step 4 — Financial Range:

Assumptions

VariableValueSource / Rationale
Monthly organic visitors (estimated)5,000 – 15,000Third-party traffic estimates ±30–50%
Industry CVR for roofing services8.0% – 12.0%LocaliQ 2025 (3,200+ campaigns)
Estimated current site CVR4.0% – 6.0%Scaled by current Fervor Grade weighted score
Estimated CVR after fixes8.0% – 12.0%Industry benchmark for category
Avg project value$8,000 – $25,000 (mid: $16,500)[BENCHMARK-FALLBACK] trade-segment estimate, confidence: low
Close rate (industry)30% – 40%Standard residential-services close rate
Monthly revenue left on the table $578K – $6.9M/month
Annual cost of inaction $6.9M – $83.2M/year

Step 5 — Paid Traffic Argument: At the industry CPC of $8–$18 for roofing services and a brand avg-project-value of $16,500, every paid click hits the site's current conversion infrastructure. Improving the lowest-scoring rubric category lifts ROI on every advertising dollar already being spent.

Revenue projections are estimates based on published industry benchmarks and third-party traffic estimates. They should not be interpreted as guarantees.

Verdict

The Summary

Inspection Verdict — Granite State Roofing

Granite State Roofing scores 50/100 on the Fervor Grade™ National Framework — Grade F, Condemned. The website is broken. Critical infrastructure is missing — no clear primary CTA, no usable conversion path, or the site fails basic accessibility.

The Site Inspection observed Granite State Roofing's framework pages and applied the standard Fervor Grade™ rubric. The lowest-scoring category was Mobile Experience at 5/15; category-level breakdowns and per-page observations follow.

PRIMARY ISSUE Mobile Experience scores below the 70% bar across the Site Inspected pages. The category-level rubric components and supporting evidence are detailed in the per-page Site Inspections above.
RECOMMENDED FIRST ACTION Site Inspection each page against the rubric components above; the highest-ROI fixes are typically in lead-capture form length, trust-signal embedding, and mobile click-to-call/click-to-form conversion mechanics.
