One of the most challenging aspects of roofing installation (other than the weather!), is properly assessing time, materials, and labor needed for the job. Ironically, this is one of the most important aspects of the business, but clients want quotes yesterday, which causes roofers to rush their estimates and can sometimes lead to unreliable quotes. This can be a thing of the past, however.

With all of the modern applications of electronic communication and instantaneous calculations made by top-notch software programs, there is no reason to give a roofing estimate that you don't feel 100 percent confident about. Now, there are ways to offer a number that realistically reflects the task at hand.

The Most Important Aspect of Roofing Installation

Creating confidence in one's clients means eliminating guesswork. When customers see a roofing installation contractor constantly amending his or her initial estimates, they get impatient, and then they often get mad. Getting it right the first time is a great way to solidify your business reputation as one of reliability and trustworthiness.

We have created the Roof Calculator 6.1 software to help other roofers make "ground" estimates reasonable and realistic. We know that roofers work against a lot of deadlines and variables, and that this job is one that takes energy, intelligence, and good, old-fashioned construction know-how. We have made it our business to help you build your roofing installation business, by creating a modern tool for a modern job!
