How RoughRate Started
The idea came from a frustrating experience. We needed window tinting for a car, but every shop gave different prices — and nobody would tell us what we should actually expect to pay.
So we started calling shops, collecting data, and building a real pricing guide. What began as a personal project became a mission: make pricing transparent for everyone.
Today, RoughRate covers window tinting, power washing, roofing, and HVAC — with more services added every month. We are not a shop. We are not affiliated with any brand. We just give you the numbers.
What We Believe
✓ Pricing should be public. You should not have to call five shops just to get a ballpark number.
✓ Data beats guessing. Our guides are based on real shop quotes, customer reviews, and industry benchmarks.
✓ Free means free. No paywalls. No membership fees. No hidden costs.
✓ Independent is honest. We do not sell tint, roofing, or any service. Our only bias is toward the truth.
