What a roofing estimate should say
Give the roof size in squares, the layers to remove, the materials by name, and how you will price the decking that you cannot see yet.
| Field | Why it matters on a roof |
|---|---|
| Roof size in squares | Give the size so that the customer can compare bids. |
| Layers to tear off | Say how many layers the price covers. |
| Shingle maker and grade | Name the maker and grade, not only "shingles". |
| Decking price per sheet | Agree on a unit price now for damage that you find at tear-off. |
| Workmanship warranty | Keep it apart from the maker warranty on the material. |
| Insurance wording | Say that the owner pays the deductible. Florida prohibits offers to waive one. |
Estimate, quote or bid: Say what your paper means. Write "fixed price", or say how the price can change. Ask your state board or a lawyer what binds you. See estimate vs invoice.

Rules to check before you send a roofing estimate
Florida: no waived deductible
Florida Statutes 489.147 lists as prohibited an offer to a residential owner of a rebate, gift, cash or waiver of an insurance deductible for allowing a roof inspection or making a claim. Florida Statutes 489.147
California: down payment
The cap on a home improvement job is the lesser of $1,000 or 10 percent, except for blanket-bond licensees, so a large roof deposit may be far below 10 percent. CSLB guide
Sales at the customer home
After a sale at the home, a buyer may cancel until midnight of the third business day, under the FTC Cooling-Off Rule. The rule has exceptions, such as a repair visit that the buyer asked for. Add the notice when you sign after a door-knock. 16 CFR 429.1
Roofing estimate questions
Should I show insurance estimate amounts on my estimate?
Show your own price for your own scope. If the customer shares the adjuster paperwork, answer it in a separate document and do not offer to absorb the deductible.
How do I price decking that I cannot see?
Give a unit price per sheet or per square foot and an allowance. Bill what you replace after tear-off, and take a photo of each sheet.
Do I measure in squares or square feet?
Use what your crew and supplier use, and say which unit. The form has a unit field for each line.
How long should a roofing estimate be valid?
Use a short period when shingle prices move. The sample uses 14 days, and you can change it in the form.
