Benefits of installing roof estimate calculator on your website
I found that the roofing calculator works AWESOME for us – people already know what to expect in terms of pricing when the estimator shows up to measure a roof, and you avoid the “jaw-dropping effect” for the most part. We also sell more jobs now (percentage wise, as compared to the total number of roof estimates we do) and we avoid 95% of price shoppers/tire kickers. Also the calculator pages attract internet traffic by themselves, and these site visitors turn into customers!
- The Roofing Calculator adds trust to your roofing business.
- Your potential customers can quickly estimate their roofing costs and know what price levels to expect.
- Roofing Calculator simplifies your sales process, as both the customer and the roof estimator are on the same page.
Besides the above benefits to your site visitors and to your company, your roofing estimators can actually use this tool to run up their quotes, as the can add almost any roof detail to the calculator.

We also changed the size of the snippet to fit the very popular 480 px wide site design, and it will not distort the proportions of your site (old version was 685 px wide, and for some it was unusable). Third – we combined the energy savings into one column and added an average lifespan for each roofing materials type.

Hello Leo,
My name is Jack and I have just started a roofing business in Vancouver Canada.
I intend on becoming the market leader here in Vancouver and In my research came across your roofing calculator.
I think its an excellent tool and actually something I would like to be able to offer directly to our customers.
I think it would be excellent if the customer could price their own job. I would rather the customer could opt to do this.
I actually think, as a service if it starts to work and I see that the results are accurate, meaning the customer is mailing us back the details, that we could charge a $2 thrown onto the bill as a dressed up “admin cost”.
I can transfer this $2 to you directly, (excluding bank fee’s etc..)
I see your software as an advantage to me and would thus like to incorporate it into the business.
What do you think?
Kind regards
Jack Healy-O’connor

Hi Steve,
We’ve been having issues with our email.
As far as customizable roofing calculator for your website. What do you mean customizable? Like so that you can change the prices around? Or a custom version? We can create a custom version for you. as far as customizable – that is not an option as we will not be giving out the program source code.
Customization of the roof calculator can be in terms of both functionality, prices / materials, as well as design. Let me know what you need done. You can post either here of email me at roofcalc @ coolflatroof.com
