Measurements to material
Facets, pitch, ridge, valley and eave recorded against the job. Waste and rounding show on every line, so the number can be checked by hand before anyone orders.
For roofing contractors
Measure it once. The material list writes itself.
NLC Portals holds one job file from the first inspection through to the warranty. Enter the measurements and get the material list, the takeoff becomes the estimate, and when it is storm work the estimate carries the claim.
A straight answer on whether this fits your operation, no pitch deck.

Software
NLC Portals: roofing work, from the measurement out.
The takeoff becomes the estimate
No re-keying a measurement into an estimate. The takeoff promotes into an estimate revision, and every earlier revision stays readable.
Storm claims on the job file
Carrier, adjuster, deductible, RCV and ACV sit on the job beside the estimate. The same claim handling the restoration edition already runs.
One job file
Photos, documents, permits, crew and schedule on the same record, from the first inspection through to the warranty.
Production and warranty
What is on the roof this week, who is on it, and what has been signed off. Unlimited users, so the whole crew is in it.
