HTTP to HTTPS for a roofing crew
19 Jul 2025
How a roofing crew deals with HTTP to HTTPS — and what usually goes wrong.
The problem: a certificate that expires on a Sunday. The certificate chain breaks for a roofing crew.
We checked the WHOIS for a roofing crew and found the domain was registered under a former employee. Transferring it took more time than fixing HTTP to HTTPS.
The most expensive outage for a roofing crew was not a hack — it was a certificate that expires on a Sunday. Nobody attacked anything. The config just drifted.
We write notes like this one because the same problems come back. If someone at a roofing crew reads it and avoids a certificate that expires on a Sunday, the note paid for itself.
When a roofing crew asked for a quote on HTTP to HTTPS, we sent a one-paragraph email instead of a slide deck. They signed the same day.
HTTP to HTTPS for a roofing crew is nothing like HTTP to HTTPS for a multinational. The scale is tiny but the stakes are the same: one wrong record and nobody can reach you.
