Stop Losing Money on Commercial Roofing Bids

AI-powered estimating for commercial roofing contractors. Automate roof area takeoffs, calculate material requirements, track warranty obligations, and catch contract language that shifts risk onto your crew.

Roofing Contractors Face These Every Day

📐 Roof Area & Detail Complexity

Commercial roofs aren't flat rectangles. Penetrations, curbs, pitch changes, parapets, drains, and expansion joints all require detailed measurement and unique flashing. Miss a skylight curb or undercount penetrations and you're absorbing the extra material and labor on a lump-sum bid.

💰 Material Price & Availability Swings

TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and metal panel pricing fluctuates with petroleum and steel markets. Insulation board prices follow different curves. Bid in January with January pricing and you're exposed by April install. One material substitution without approval can void manufacturer warranties.

🌧️ Weather & Schedule Risk

Roofing is the most weather-dependent trade. Contracts that don't account for weather delays shift schedule liquidated damages to you. A two-week rain delay on a fast-track job can trigger $1K/day LD clauses that weren't priced into your bid.

⚠️ Warranty & Liability Exposure

Manufacturer warranties (20-year, 30-year NDL) have strict installation requirements. Contract language often makes the roofing sub the sole guarantor of warranty performance. One improperly sealed penetration discovered 3 years later can trigger a full warranty claim against you.

Real contractors, real results.

★★★★★
"Missed 14 penetration flashings on a manual takeoff for a warehouse re-roof. AI caught every one. That's $3,800 in material and a full day of labor I would've absorbed."
Ray Gutierrez
Owner, Gutierrez Roofing & Sheet Metal
★★★★★
"TPO pricing jumped 8% between bid and material order. Our real-time pricing data backed our change order request. GC approved it because we had documentation, not just a complaint."
Karen Schultz
Estimator, Schultz Commercial Roofing
★★★★★
"Contract had a clause making us liable for full roof replacement if any warranty claim arose within 10 years. AI flagged it. We negotiated it down to defective workmanship only. That clause could've been catastrophic."
