Roofr alternatives for roofers who quote from the ladder.

Roofr is built around the measurement report: order it, turn it into a proposal, track the job. If you measure your own roofs, or you do more than roofing, the math and the fit can look different. Here's what else is out there.

Who Roofr suits, and what you pay for

Roofr is roofing software for roofing contractors, including small ones. Its core is measurement reports that convert into branded proposals, with faster turnaround on paid plans. Around that it adds an Instant Estimator widget for your website that drops homeowner estimates into its Job Board CRM, plus invoicing, payments and material ordering.

Two things shape the cost. Measurement reports are charged per report on every plan, on top of the subscription, so a busy estimating month costs more than a slow one. And Roofr is roofing-only, so if you also hang gutters, side houses or do general repairs, that work lives in a tool built for something else. See Roofr's pricing page for current plans and report prices.

If you order a report for every bid and want the proposal built from it, Roofr fits that workflow closely. If you climb and measure yourself, or roofing is half your work, compare the options below. Two-way comparison: Redline vs Roofr.

Questions contractors ask

Does Redline measure roofs?

No. You measure, or use a report you already bought, and tell Redline the squares. It builds the line items, and a deposit % if you ask for one, from there.

Can homeowners get a price from my website like Roofr's Instant Estimator?

No. The closest thing is your free Pro Page, where homeowners send a quote request that lands in your contacts as a lead. Free reveals 3 requests a month; paid plans reveal all of them.

Will it handle gutter and siding jobs alongside roofs?

Yes. Redline isn't tied to one trade, so a gutter guard install and a reroof sit in the same pipeline. See gutters and siding.
