AI Software for Roofing Contractors
Answer storm-season inquiries, book the inspection, and carry every roof from the first photo to the final invoice.
Roofing demand never arrives evenly. A storm moves through, six homeowners message at once, and the office is already on the phone with an adjuster. TradeReply answers that first message in seconds, asks the questions that separate a repair from a full replacement, and keeps the answers on the customer's record.
The same record then carries the work forward: the inspection is booked onto the calendar and assigned to a crew member, the findings become an estimate with tear-off, underlayment and flashing as separate lines, and an approved estimate becomes a job you can photograph, document and invoice.
A roofing week, as it actually happens
Four ordinary moments, and what the platform does in each one.
A storm inquiry lands at 8:40 PM
A homeowner submits your lead capture page with a description of missing shingles and a ceiling stain. TradeReply replies within seconds, asks whether water is actively dripping, and offers two inspection windows. The answers are already on the lead when the office opens.
The adjuster wants the detail
Messages, notes, site photos and every estimate revision sit on one job. When the adjuster asks what was found on the roof, the office opens the record instead of scrolling through a camera roll.
The estimate that went quiet
An estimate is opened twice and never answered. The follow-up rule you configured sends a short reminder, then creates a task for the office once your attempt limit is reached.
Repeat work without re-selling
A maintenance plan keeps an annual inspection on the calendar for past customers, so next spring's visit is already scheduled before the homeowner thinks about it.
What Roofing businesses use TradeReply for
Every capability below is part of the same workspace, not an add-on.
Inspection scheduling
Appointments carry a duration, a service address and the crew member assigned, with a reminder sent before the visit.
Itemised estimates
Tear-off, materials and labour as separate lines, with markup applied once, a revision history, and customer approval on a secure page.
Site documentation
Before, during and after photos, a safety checklist and a typed customer signature stay attached to the job, not a shared drive.
One inbox
Lead-capture submissions and text conversations arrive in the same place, with AI drafts in your voice and a one-click takeover.
Invoices and payment requests
Invoice from the job so amounts and customer stay linked. Payment requests point at your own processor — TradeReply never holds your customer's money.
A pipeline you can defend
Every lead keeps its stage, source, value and conversation, so a quiet week is visible before it becomes a quiet month.
Start free, then choose the plan that fits the roofing you run.
Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial and can be cancelled from your account. Compare what each plan includes before you commit.
Roofing questions
Does TradeReply replace my roofing CRM?
It holds leads, contacts, jobs, estimates and invoices for one business in a single workspace, with roles for office staff and installers. Teams that already run a CRM often use the estimate, job and invoice side on its own.
Can it answer customers while the crew is on a roof?
Yes. The assistant replies in your business voice, asks the qualifying questions you set, and offers appointment windows from the availability you configured, without promising a time you cannot cover.
How does a homeowner approve an estimate?
They open a secure link from the text or email — no account and no password — review the line items, and approve or decline with a typed signature and a timestamp.
Who processes the payment?
Your own payment processor, such as Square, Stripe or your bank's payment page. TradeReply sends the request and records what you confirm was collected so your totals stay accurate.
