Free Roofer Invoice Template — No Signup
Roofing invoices live or die on whether they match the insurance adjuster's paperwork. After a storm job you're billing against a claim, and if your line items don't mirror the adjuster's estimate — shingles by the square, underlayment by the roll, ice and water shield, drip edge, flashing, ridge vent, tear-off and dump fees — the homeowner gets stuck waiting on the insurance check. Then there are the small repair calls where you drove out for a $400 leak fix and still need to bill travel, labor, and the bundle of shingles off the truck. Billify itemizes every bundle, square, and trip charge so the bill is claim-ready — no signup, data stays in your browser.

Billing tips for roofers
On insurance jobs, mirror the adjuster's line items exactly — same quantity units, same line descriptions — and attach your invoice to the adjuster's estimate so the homeowner can hand it straight to the claims department; mismatched units are the number-one reason roofing invoices get delayed. For full replacements, bill in draws: a deposit for materials (shingles, underlayment, flashing) that you order before tear-off, then the balance on final inspection — this is standard and protects you from fronting thousands at the supply house. Always list shingles by the square (one square = 100 sq ft) and bundles by count; clients and adjusters speak in squares, not in 'a bunch of shingles.' Include the tear-off, dump, and disposal fees as separate lines, not buried in labor, because insurance reimburses these specifically. Note your roofing license or contractor number on every invoice — most states require one, and a missing license number on a storm-chasing invoice is a red flag for homeowners. Add the warranty line: state the manufacturer's material warranty years and your own workmanship warranty separately, because they're two different promises. Set net 14 for residential replacements and net 30 for commercial or property-management clients. Photograph the finished roof and send it with the invoice — adjusters often pay faster when a dated photo of completed work accompanies the claim paperwork.
Roofer invoice FAQ
Should I collect a deposit before ordering roofing materials?
Yes — for a full replacement, take a deposit that covers your shingles, underlayment, and flashing before you place the supply order, then bill the balance on final inspection. This two-draw structure is standard in roofing and keeps you from fronting thousands at the supply house on a job that could still fall through.
How do I invoice a job that's going through insurance?
Mirror the adjuster's line items exactly — same units, same descriptions — and attach your invoice to the adjuster's estimate so the homeowner can forward it to claims. Mismatched units are the top reason storm invoices get held up. Add your license number and a dated completion photo; adjusters pay faster when paperwork is clean and complete.
What's the right way to bill shingles — by the bundle or the square?
List shingles by the square (one square = 100 sq ft) and show bundles by count underneath if the client wants the detail. Clients and adjusters both speak in squares, and a line that says '18 squares architectural shingles' matches the estimate and the claim far better than 'a bunch of shingles.'
Do I include my warranty on the invoice?
Yes, and split it into two lines: the manufacturer's material warranty (e.g. 30-year limited) and your own workmanship warranty (e.g. 5 years against leaks at flashing). They are two different promises made by two different parties, and stating both on the invoice protects you later if only the manufacturer's coverage is in play.
What payment terms do roofers typically use?
Net 14 for residential replacements and net 30 for commercial or property-management clients. Residential homeowners tend to pay the balance the week after final inspection, so net 14 keeps you from chasing it into a second month. For storm jobs, expect the insurance check to set the timeline — bill net 15 from when the homeowner receives the depreciated payment.
