The problem with manual quoting for roofers

Sound familiar?

📐

Roof area calculations

Calculating roof area, pitch factor, and material quantities manually from measurements is slow and error-prone. Getting it wrong means ordering too little or too much material.

📈

Material price volatility

Roofing material prices — tiles, felt, battens, lead — change frequently. Quotes based on outdated prices eat into margins.

🏗

Scaffolding costs

Scaffolding is often the biggest variable in a roofing quote. Forgetting to include it, or underestimating the cost, is a common and expensive mistake.

🔲

Flat roof system complexity

GRP, EPDM, felt, and liquid systems all have different material costs, labour times, and lifespans. Explaining these options clearly in a quote builds trust and wins work.

What the quoting software does for roofers

Built specifically for roofer quoting — not a generic tool.

Roof area estimation

The AI estimates roof area and material quantities from a job description, pitch information, and property type — no manual calculation needed.

Material takeoff

Automatically calculates tile quantities, felt, battens, ridge tiles, hip tiles, and valley materials with standard wastage factors included.

Scaffolding inclusion

Scaffolding cost is automatically included in roofing quotes based on property height and roof type — no more forgetting this major cost.

Flat roof system comparison

Generate comparison quotes for GRP, EPDM, and torch-on felt systems so clients can choose based on cost and lifespan.

Repair vs replace guidance

For repair jobs, the AI includes a note on whether repair or full replacement is likely to be the better value long-term.

Professional PDF output

Send professional roofing quotes as branded PDFs directly from the app.
