Gridwolf roofing automation – built for Australian contractors

Running a roofing business in Australia means juggling quotes, chasing payments, and managing crews while trying to grow your bottom line. You're stuck doing 15 hours of admin every week when you should be on the tools or winning new contracts. Every minute spent manually measuring roof plans or chasing overdue invoices is money walking out the door. Gridwolf roofing automation software eliminates the admin headaches that keep you from focusing on what you do best – delivering quality roofing projects that keep customers coming back.

Manual quoting kills your margins

Spending hours measuring from satellite images and manually calculating materials costs you time and money. Every hour you're stuck behind a desk creating quotes is an hour you're not on the tools or winning new work. You're either rushing quotes and making costly pricing errors, or taking so long that customers go elsewhere. That $45,000 tile roof job you quoted at $42,000 because you miscalculated the valleys? That's your profit gone before you even order materials.

Payment delays destroy cash flow

Chasing overdue invoices and waiting weeks for payments makes it impossible to plan ahead or pay your suppliers on time. When you're constantly worried about cash flow, you can't invest in better equipment or take on the bigger jobs that grow your business. You're spending Tuesday mornings calling clients about their 45-day overdue invoices instead of quoting new work. Late payments from one job can put your entire operation at risk, especially when you've got suppliers demanding payment on net 14-day terms.

Job tracking chaos costs you customers

Lost paperwork, missed follow-ups, and poor communication between office and field teams creates unhappy customers and costly rework. When you can't track job progress or communicate delays properly, customers lose trust and your reputation suffers. You promise Mrs Johnson her roof will be done Friday, but your crew's been delayed on another job and she finds out when they don't show up. Word-of-mouth travels fast in the roofing industry, and poor project management can kill your referral pipeline faster than a botched flashing job.

Step by Step

How This Actually Works

Monday morning used to mean catching up on quotes from the weekend and chasing last week's unpaid invoices. Now you check your dashboard and see three quotes automatically generated overnight from your weekend site visits, complete with accurate measurements and current Lysaght pricing. Your payment reminders have already gone out, and two invoices were paid over the weekend through automated bank transfers.

Instead of spending Tuesday afternoon manually calculating square metres and calling suppliers for prices, you take photos of the roof damage with your phone. The AI measures everything automatically and pulls live pricing from your preferred suppliers. The professional quote is ready in five minutes, and you can send it while you're still talking to the customer. No more losing jobs because you took three days to get back with pricing.

By Wednesday, you know exactly how much profit each job is making because every material delivery and labour hour is tracked automatically. When the Stratco delivery shows up, you scan the docket and it's instantly matched to the right job. Your crew updates job progress from their phones, so customers get real-time updates and you can spot problems before they blow out your margins. Friday afternoon is for planning next week's work, not playing catch-up with paperwork.
