💡 If you don't have a template set up yet, Roofr will prompt you to choose a pricing format when you create your first proposal:

  • Line Item Pricing – go to Roofr Jumpstart to build out your proposal.

  • Per Square Pricing – go to a template with a single Roof Replacement line item to get you started quickly.

From there, you can customize your proposal to fit the job.
