Built for roofing

Software for roofing contractors

Tear-offs, shingles, metal, flat roofs — with a weather window that closes without asking. Roofing is quoted in squares, sold in a single visit and paid in stages. TradesOps prices off the roof area and pitch, takes a deposit before the material drop, and keeps the photographs that settle a claim.

Where roofing jobs lose money

Not the dramatic failures — the ordinary ones that happen on a normal week.

Pitch and layers changing the number after you have quoted

Pitch, existing layers and tear-off all sit in the estimate rather than in your head, so the quote you leave behind is the one the job costs.

Paying for material before the customer has paid you

Take a deposit when the quote is signed, on the spot, by card. The material drop stops being financed out of your own account.

No record when a claim or a callback lands

Before and after photographs, daily logs and the signed scope stay attached to the job. When an adjuster or a homeowner asks two years later, the answer is in one place.

Roofing questions

Does it estimate in squares?

Yes. Enter the roof area and pitch and it returns squares with waste, plus underlayment, ice and water shield, ridge, drip edge and fasteners for the roof type you picked.

Can I take a deposit on the spot?

Yes. The customer signs the quote on your phone and pays the deposit by card there and then, or through a link you send. The invoice records it against the job.

Does it work for insurance jobs?

The parts that matter do: dated before and after photographs, the signed scope, change orders and the full job history, all exportable. It is not a claims system, but it holds the evidence one asks for.
