Roofing estimate FAQ

What is a roofing square?

A square is 100 square feet of roof surface. Most shingle and labor pricing is quoted per square, so the builder includes it as a standard unit.

Should I include waste in my shingle quantity?

Most roofers add a waste allowance for cuts, hips, and valleys. Enter the quantity you will actually order so your cost matches your supplier invoice.

Will my customer see my costs?

No. The proposal shows only customer prices, in the level of detail you choose. Internal costs, markup, margin, and notes never appear.

Do the suggested items include prices?

No. Suggestions help you remember what belongs in the bid. You enter your own costs, so nothing is priced with made-up numbers.
