A clear roofing estimate wins more jobs and prevents disputes. Use the template below or let BidScopePro's AI generate a full, branded roof estimate in seconds.

What every roofing estimate must include

  1. Roof measurements — squares, pitch, waste factor (10-15%).
  2. Tear-off scope — layers, decking inspection, dump fees.
  3. Underlayment — synthetic vs. felt, ice & water shield.
  4. Shingles — brand, line, color, warranty class.
  5. Flashing & accessories — drip edge, step flashing, pipe boots, ridge vent.
  6. Labor — crew size, days, per-square rate.
  7. Exclusions & warranty — decking surcharge, gutter work, workmanship years.

Quick pricing math

  • Materials: $30-$45/bundle × 3 bundles/square + underlayment + flashing. Add 10-15% waste.
  • Labor: $150-$350 per square; more for steep pitch or multi-story.
  • Disposal: $400-$800 per dumpster plus tonnage.
  • Overhead + profit: 15-25% markup on materials, margin on labor.
