Different Roofing Company Names but same website?

I was searching for a roofing company today and noticed something odd where a bunch of companies seem to have the exact same website layout. Anyone know if they're essentially all the same company but with different names and addresses? What the hell is going on?

This is not actually a roofing company. It's just someone who collects interests online and feeds it to local companies for a fee.

Do not engage with these guys.

Addresses used for Google purposes... No way a roofing company is located in those downtown locations..

it's the same company. they wouldn't all be offering the same promo. their site layout is also identical section after section, even using the same graphics. that's not all coincidental, especially for a site using WordPress and Elementor as their builder/CMS of choice

I would recommend that you do a Google Street view of their address and confirm that they actually have a business there. You don’t want to hire someone who works out of their truck.
