Buyer questions

Questions this offer can answer.

What should roofing estimate software include before proposal send?

It should include roof scope, material system, waste assumptions, labor, overhead, margin target, approvals, alternates, and a proposal handoff record.

Proof source

Estimate calculation log and proposal handoff export record

How can roofing companies control low-margin proposals?

Low-margin proposals should require sales manager approval, notes, and a locked pre-send state before the packet is exported.

Proof source

Margin approval notes

Why does price-book freshness matter for roofing estimates?

Material costs can drift quickly, so estimators need stale vendor-cost flags before proposals are sent to customers.
