Create my accountSoftware for roofers
Every roofer,a rock-solid file.
You’re not judged on handover day, but at the first heavy rain, sometimes months later. And for ten years, a leaking roof is presumed your fault. Here is the file that keeps, in dated photos, the before state and what you laid.
Free to start, no card.
Software shouldn’t just help you run your business. It should strengthen your credibility with the best clients, and protect your interests the day a job gets tense.
Where a job tips over
On a roof, the risk isn’t in the quote.
It comes when it rains, often long after the end. Four moments decide whether your work ends as a recommendation or a dispute, and they settle in advance, while they’re still a photo in a file.
The verdict at the first heavy rain
Your work isn’t judged on handover, but the day it rains hard, sometimes months later. The leak appears, another roofer condemns your work, and it all comes down to “you’re the one who laid it”.
“It was already like that”
Roof opened, rain in the night, and water gets in. Without dated photos of the before state and of what you laid, it’s your word against theirs.
Storm, or faulty work?
After a gust, the expert looks for the cause: if it’s the storm, the decennial liability doesn’t apply; if they reclassify it as faulty work, it falls on you. That day, you need to be able to show work done by the book.
“You didn’t maintain it”… or did you?
The only real way out is the client’s lack of maintenance. But it can only be argued with proof that you delivered clean and advised on upkeep, in black and white.
None of these moments is fate. Each one becomes harmless the moment it’s photographed and dated at the right time.
Trust is won before you climb onto the roof.
Trusting someone with their roof, for a client, is protecting their whole home from water. He can’t judge your work once the tiles are laid, so he judges what he can see: a clear quote, tidy past jobs, a business you can find again. At a similar price, the roofer who shows his work and his seriousness comes before the one who’s a number at the bottom of a quote.
Your public page and your gathered jobs don’t manufacture that rigour. They make it visible, for the client hesitating to let you touch their roof.
The day the water speaks, it’s all already there.
The rigour that wins you the job is the same that covers you when a leak appears. The before state, what you laid, the watertightness points checked, the handover report, the maintenance advice: gathered and dated, from quote to handover.
You no longer dig through phone photos. You open the file, and it shows what you did, and what state it was in before. That’s what turns an accusation into a formality, and what separates the storm from faulty work.
One single way of working, two benefits: it wins you the job, then it covers you for ten years.
Several roofs, one clear head.
Your jobs, your teams, your hours and your margins per roof sit in one place, up to date. You see whether a job is paying you while it runs, not at the end of the year.
And on the roof, everything is captured from the job: photos, notes, checked points, even offline.
What we get asked
The questions you’re already asking.
How long am I liable for a roof?
Ten years under the decennial liability, from handover. A leaking roof makes the home unfit for its purpose: it’s a decennial disorder, and you’re presumed liable, without the client having to prove your fault. Hence the value of keeping the record of what you laid.
A leak after a storm, is it on me?
It depends on the cause, and it’s the expert who decides. If the damage comes from the storm, it’s the home insurance that applies, not your decennial liability. But if the expert finds the work was at fault, liability comes back to you. A file showing work done by the book makes all the difference that day.
How do I prove the state of the roof before my work?
With dated photos, taken before starting and as the job goes. Without them, if water gets in during the work or a disorder already existed, it’s your word against the client’s. Photos of the before state cut short both “it was already like that” and “you broke everything”.
Can the client’s lack of maintenance clear me?
Yes, it’s one of the rare ways out: if the damage comes from the owner’s lack of maintenance (moss removal, gutters), the presumption falls. But it must be established. Having delivered clean and written the maintenance advice, kept in the file, puts you in a position to argue it.
Do I have to replace my quoting software?
The quote isn’t the end, it’s the first piece of your file. We start from the quote-contract and hold the thread through to handover and beyond, where your liability really lasts: ten years.
I work alone, is it for me?
Yes. A lone roofer carries the same decennial liability as a big firm. When no one can vouch for you, your dated photos do.
The common ground
What secures your project doesn't depend on your trade.
The principle is the same across every job you take on: the agreement holds from the quote, the proof files itself as the work goes, the handover closes cleanly. That's what we call a Secure Contract.
