Get your roofing automation set up fast

Stop losing jobs to paperwork delays and manual processes that eat into your profits. Your roofing business is bleeding money every day you're stuck doing quotes by hand, chasing payments with phone calls, and trying to figure out if jobs are profitable weeks after completion. Our roofing business automation setup in Australia gets your operations running smoothly in weeks, not months, so you can focus on what you do best – quality roofing work. We've helped 200+ Australian roofers eliminate admin headaches and increase profits by 25% within their first year.

Quotes taking days to send

You're measuring jobs, doing calculations by hand, then spending hours in the office creating quotes while competitors are already following up. By the time you send your quote, the customer's already signed with someone else who got back to them same day. Last week you measured three residential re-roofs on Tuesday, but didn't get quotes out until Friday afternoon. Two customers had already committed to other contractors. That's $45,000 in lost revenue because your quote process is too slow for today's market.

Chasing payments for weeks

Half your time is spent chasing overdue invoices instead of being on job sites. Customers claim they 'never got the invoice' or promise to pay 'next week', while your cashflow suffers and you can't pay your subbies on time. You've got $30,000 sitting in overdue accounts right now, and you're making awkward phone calls instead of earning money on roofs. Your materials supplier is asking for payment while customers owe you money from jobs completed two months ago.

No visibility on job profitability

You finish jobs thinking you made good money, only to discover later that material costs, labour overruns, and hidden expenses ate your margins. Without proper tracking, you're flying blind on which jobs actually make money. That $15,000 colorbond job looked profitable until you calculated the extra scaffold hire, permit delays, and overtime costs. You're working harder but your bank balance isn't growing because profitable jobs are subsidising the losers.

Step by Step

How This Actually Works

Monday morning before automation: You're in the office for three hours creating quotes from last week's site visits, manually calculating materials from supplier price lists, and calling customers about overdue invoices. By the time you get to your first job site, it's nearly lunch and you're already behind. You spend the drive wondering if that job you finished last month actually made any money.

Monday morning after automation: Your weekend site visits automatically generated quotes that were emailed to customers Sunday night with payment links attached. You wake up to two signed contracts and deposits already in your account. Your phone shows which jobs are running over budget so you can adjust before losing money. No office time needed - you're on the tools making money from 7am.

The difference is everything happens automatically in the background. Customers get professional quotes while you're still driving home from their property. Payments flow directly to your account without phone calls or awkward conversations. You know exactly which jobs are profitable before you even start them, and your accounting is updated in real-time so BAS preparation takes minutes instead of days.
