⚡ The contractor who quotes first wins 60% of roofing jobs. RoofIQ gets you there in minutes.

Roofing jobs go to whoever quotes first.

🐌

Slow quotes lose jobs

A homeowner calls three roofers. The first one back with a number usually gets the job. If you're building your estimate manually, you're already behind.

📐

Wrong material quantities

Over-ordering wastes money. Under-ordering stops the job mid-way. Getting quantities right from your measurements is harder than it looks.

📋

Missing code-required materials

Ice and water shield, proper underlayment, venting requirements — missing a code-required material on the quote means surprises at inspection.

💸

Labour hours off the mark

Underestimate tear-off time on an old roof and you've already lost margin before the first shingle goes down.

How RoofIQ works

Three steps to a complete roofing estimate.

01

Plug in your measurements

Enter your roof dimensions — length, width, pitch, and any details about the scope (tear-off, valleys, dormers, flat sections).

02

RoofIQ calculates everything

Labour hours, material quantities, code-compliant specifications, and current Canadian pricing — all generated automatically for flat or sloped roofs.

03

Send the quote

Review your complete estimate with HST/GST calculated by province and send a professional quote to your client before the competition even picks up the phone.

Everything in one estimate.
Nothing missing.
