Free Roofing Estimate & Proposal Builder

Enter the roof once and the builder works out squares, linear feet and counts for each line. You set every price. Print it or save it as a PDF to hand to the homeowner. Nothing you type leaves this browser.

Estimate, bid or proposal: what this produces

Roofers use the three words loosely. An estimate is the priced list of work and materials. A bid is that price submitted to win a job, usually against other contractors. A proposal wraps the price in a written scope, terms, warranty and a place to sign. The builder covers all three: line items and totals for the estimate, plus scope of work, terms, deposit and validity dates so the printed copy works as a one-page proposal the homeowner can sign.

What a roofing proposal should include

• Your company name, license number and contact details, and the customer and job address.
• Roof measurements: squares, pitch, and linear feet of eaves, rakes, ridges, hips and valleys.
• Line items for tear-off, decking, underlayment, ice and water shield, drip edge, starter, shingles or panels, ridge cap and vents, flashing, dumpster and cleanup.
• A written scope of work: what is removed, what is installed, and the product and color.
• How hidden problems are priced, such as rotted decking per sheet, so there are no surprises after tear-off.
• Workmanship and manufacturer warranty terms, the deposit and payment schedule, and how long the price is valid.
• Signature lines for you and the customer.

If you need e-signatures, CRM pipelines or aerial measurement reports built in, paid roofing proposal software adds those. For writing clear, correctly measured proposals on your own letterhead, this builder is enough.
