Roofing company, Auckland
Roof take-offs that took days, sometimes weeks, now take minutes.
In trial with the office, October 2026
Before a family roofing business can quote or order, someone has to work out every sheet, flashing, roll of underlay and box of screws from the plans. That take-off could take days, sometimes weeks.
Quotes waited on it, and so did the order to the supplier.
How it works
The real system, with the business's name and logo taken out. The address, the builder and the people are swapped for made-up ones.
01
However the roof arrives
Upload the consented plans, a photo of a site measure, or trace the roof on the aerial photo when there's no measure yet.
02
The roof drafts itself
The system finds the roof plan, checks the scale against two printed dimensions and drafts every roof plane with its sheet count and length. A person ticks each one before anything is ordered.
03
The order, ready to send
Sheets by length and roof plane, flashings, underlay and screws, laid out on the business's own order form. It stays a draft until a named person approves it, and every revision is kept.
