Business software for roofing contractors
Quote by the square, bill the deposit and every draw after it, and keep the documents an adjuster asks for on the job.
Estimates by the square
Price the roof line by line
Build an estimate that shows squares, materials and labour on separate lines, then turn the accepted version into the deposit invoice.
Materials and labour split out
List 32 squares of architectural shingle, underlayment, drip edge and the crew days on their own lines. The homeowner sees where a $12,000 re-roof goes.
Deposit on acceptance
Turn the signed estimate into an invoice for the deposit, so the supply house order is covered before tear-off day.
Progress billing
Bill each draw as the roof gets done
Open the job once, invoice the deposit, then the tear-off, the dry-in and the final walkthrough against the same approved estimate.
Draws against milestones
Invoice part of the contract at dry-in and the rest at completion. The job shows what is billed and what is still left to bill.
Crew hours on the job
Log crew hours against the job, so a 40 square tear-off that ran three days shows its real labour cost instead of the estimated one.
Suppliers and the claim file
Know what the supply house is owed
Track material bills next to what the homeowner still owes you, and keep the scope and the backing documents on the same customer.
Payables against receivables
Scan the supply house bill onto the job and read it next to the draw the homeowner has not paid. Material gets settled before a lien can attach to the property.
Paper trail for the adjuster
Keep the estimate, the supplement, the invoices and the receipts on one customer record for the day the carrier asks for backup.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Build the estimate line by line: squares of shingle, underlayment, drip edge, disposal and crew days, each on its own line at your prices. The homeowner sees where $12,000 goes and accepts the estimate online. The accepted version turns into the deposit invoice in one click, with the same lines.
Open the job once and invoice against the same approved estimate as the work moves: deposit on signing, a draw at dry-in, the balance after the final walkthrough. Every invoice lands on that job, so the job always shows what is billed, what is paid and what is still left to bill.
Not the carrier side. Holded does not write claim estimates, does not talk to adjusters, and does not replace the estimating software carriers expect. What it does is hold the file: scope, supplement, supplier bills, invoices and receipts on one customer record, and bill the first check and the depreciation release as separate draws.
Holded does not file liens or track their deadlines, so those dates stay in your calendar. What it does show is the material bill for that job next to the draw the homeowner has not paid yet. You see which roofs are carrying supplier debt and settle the ones where your money already came in.
Yes. The trial is 14 days and asks for no credit card. Run one job end to end: estimate, deposit invoice, supplier bill, crew hours, final invoice and the margin on the finished job. That is enough to see whether the numbers match how you price a roof before you move your customer list.
