Roofing estimating software for a working shop.
Stop quoting roofs off a spreadsheet. billWright prices a job from your own material and labor rates - tear-off, underlayment, shingles, ridge cap, flashing, disposal - turns the estimate into a branded quote, and the minute it is approved that number becomes an invoice and a job budget you can cost against. Built by a working contractor, free through the beta.
Free for the duration of the beta. Your data is yours - export it any time, in a format that opens anywhere.
The fast, right bid wins the job.
Roofs are priced by the square - tear-off, underlayment, shingles, then the flashing and disposal that always get forgotten. Rebuilding each bid by hand off last year's spreadsheet is slow and easy to get wrong, and both cost you money.
Quotes take all night
Re-pricing every roof by hand means the quote goes out late. The roofer who answers fast tends to win the work.
Margins quietly slip
Copy a stale labor rate or forget the drip edge and disposal, and the job eats your profit. The math should not be where you lose money.
Every estimate is one-off
No reusable assemblies, so a tear-off and re-roof you have quoted fifty times starts from a blank sheet every single time.
Ballpark a roofing job, right now.
Adjust the quantities and your own rates - this is the line-item math billWright runs. In the app these become reusable assemblies in your price book, so your real numbers drive every bid.

Roofing estimating, answered.
What is the best estimating software for roofers?
The best fit prices from your own material and labor rates by the square, turns the estimate into a branded quote, and carries that number into an invoice and a job budget so nothing is re-keyed. billWright does all of this in one tool and is free through its closed beta.
Can I estimate roofing jobs from my own material and labor rates?
Yes. billWright prices every bid from your own price book and reusable calculators - tear-off, underlayment, shingles, ridge cap, drip edge, flashing, and disposal - so the number you send reflects your real costs, not a generic catalog.
Does it turn an estimate into an invoice?
Yes. When a quote is approved it becomes an invoice and a job budget automatically, and you can cost the real job against the estimate as it runs.
How much does billWright cost?
It is free for the duration of the closed beta, with honest pricing after. Your data stays yours and exports any time.
