Roofing invoice pdf for Production

what you're about to see is a Microsoft Excel estimating system that allows you to accurately do a roofing material takeoff even if you have zero math skills or zero Microsoft Excel skills sound like a stretch spend a few minutes with me and let me show you how this works first of all if you've been in the roofing business for any amount of time you've probably been handed something like this and are expected to do a take-off on that this is what it should look like let me show you how we get to this point let's first start off with a architectural plan and this is a pretty simple plan but notice it's got multiple plate heights and then also six and twelve slopes front to back eight and twelve slopes side to side now as an estimator how I've always approached doing takeoffs is I break everything down into very small chunks estimate each individual piece and then the grand total of all those pieces turns out to be an incredibly accurate takeoff so let's do the same thing with this roof we're going to begin by breaking it down into one or more of these shapes then we're alternately going to take measurements and enter those dimensions into the spreadsheet now this system works if you're measuring from architectural plans or if you're pulling field measurements for the roof or if you use an aerial roof measurement service let's start off the takeoff by looking at the roof planes we've got a rectangle we've got parallelograms we've got trapezoids and we've got triangles so now once we get that let's look at each shape one at a time we've got a rectangle the spreadsheet tells you that you need a base in a height dimension so we've got 11-foot base ten foot for height and also take note of the ADA twelve roof slope next let's look at the parallelograms that's prompting you for the same dimensions base and height so 12 three six nine and next let's take a look at the trapezoids now the trapezoids you need to pull to base dimensions and then the height and the wrap this roof up we're going to take a look at the triangles a simple base and a height now this is what it's going to look like when you enter this information into the spreadsheet now this program also comes with a printable 11 by 17 PDF sheet that you can pencil these dimensions in in the field and then take it back to the office and enter it into the spreadsheet so after everything's entered into the spreadsheet the square footage of each shape is automatically calculated then the total square footage of each is summarized along the top now most roofing take us can be broken down into these three shapes but I also gave you a couple more shapes for the more complex roof take a look now at our hips valleys ridges this is what those dimensions look like when entered into the spreadsheet and notice the six in twelve and eight and twelve roof slopes on the hips and valleys then we're going to take a look at our roof overhang lines our rigs our ease enter that into the spreadsheet and then lastly we can measure our flashing points in this example I'm saying that we're using step flashing and the wall finish is brick or stone you can also get into where its head wall or side wall flashing in siding or stucco as well now let's take a look at doing roof measurements from Google Maps the mechanics are exactly the same break the roof down into one or more of those shapes and then a right-click on the Google Maps will bring up the measure tools so take the measurements enter that into the spreadsheet now if you're a roofer pulling actual field dimensions from the roof a simple clip will tell it to ignore the pitch factor too so now we're going to do the same thing we're going to break it apart into rectangles parallelograms trapezoids find their triangles and your roof is measured flip the printed form over to the back you can add your own roof sketch and that's great for taking back to the office to have a record of what the roof looks like and then also you can define the project complexity in advance so say if your pricing is dictated by project complexity this kind of gives you a fields eye perspective of that project in advance you can also include any additional roofing accessories that you want included in the take-off you can also specify your nailing requirements for the project and once all your dimensions are in the take-off is automatically summarized based on just the dimensions that you entered and finally you have your roofing take off this has starter strip hip and ridge cap and field shingles and you can use any waist factor that you want on the spreadsheet now this system comes with a hundred percent money back guarantee download it learn it put it into action use it for 21 days if you are not absolutely thrilled with it I will give you your money back and I'll even let you keep your software this comes with free video training free online support and you have immediate access to everything right now now let
