Solva Systems › Roofers
Job management software for roofing companies.
Surveys that become quotes, weather that moves the plan, scaffold that has to line up, and guarantees you can still find in ten years.
Book a conversationWhat usually goes wrong
Roofing is quoted off a survey, delivered across days that the weather chooses, and guaranteed for years afterwards. Very little software understands any of the three.
- Surveys live in a notebook and a camera roll. The photos that justified the price are on somebody’s phone, not against the quote.
- Weather moves everything and nothing follows. Two wet days push a fortnight of work and the schedule silently stops being real.
- Scaffold is a separate conversation. Up too early is money burning, up too late stops the job, and it is coordinated by phone call.
- Staged payments get missed. Deposit, on start, on completion, and at least one of them is invoiced late every month.
- A guarantee claim is an archaeology exercise. Somebody rings about a roof from 2021 and finding what was done takes an afternoon.
What we build instead
Bramall Sealants on our home page is the closest shape we have built: crews across sites, with the site and not the job as the thing that matters. Roofing gets that engine with surveys, staged payments and guarantees built for how you work.
Surveys that become the quote
Photos, measurements and notes captured on the roof and carried straight into the price.
A plan that survives weather
Move a job for rain and everything after it moves with it, so the schedule stays true.
Scaffold on the timeline
Erect and strike dates against the job, so hire time is visible before it becomes a bill.
Staged payments that invoice themselves
Deposit, start and completion raised on the trigger rather than when somebody notices.
Guarantees you can find
Every job, material and photo kept against the property, searchable a decade later.
The day, on one screen
Which crew is on which roof, what is finished and what is waiting on something.
Why not one of the off-the-shelf ones
General job software handles the invoicing side of roofing fine. Where it tends to fall down is everything specific to the trade: the survey becoming the quote, hire periods, and guarantee history you may need in ten years.

The question is not whether the licence is cheap. It is what you are working around every day, and what that costs you in evenings. Work out your own three year figure.
How it works
We learn how you actually run. Usually a couple of calls. If it suits you we will come and spend a day watching the work move through the company.
You see it before you pay anything. We build the opening screens in your branding, with your words for things and demo data in them. Not a finished system, enough to see the shape of yours and tell us where it is wrong.
Then we build the real one. The monthly starts and takes three to six months depending on how much system there is. Every fortnight you are told where it is up to. One fee covers building it, running it, hosting it and improving it.
