Roofer Software for Quoting, Crews & GST Invoicing

Running a roofing business in Australia means juggling more admin than most roofers signed up for. You're quoting tile repairs from a ladder, pricing Colorbond re-roofs by the m², chasing leak callouts after every storm, and then coming home to reconcile ServiceM8 jobs against Xero invoices. Many roofers pay $49/month for ServiceM8, $35/month for Xero, and another $12–27/month for a booking page and CRM — yet none of these tools were designed for how a roofing crew actually works. You end up double-entering data, losing drone photos in WhatsApp threads, and spending Sunday afternoons on BAS prep instead of resting your knees.

OneBookPlus replaces that patchwork with one platform built for how Australian roofers actually work. Build itemised quotes mixing m² pricing for re-roofs, linear metre pricing for ridge repointing and gutters, and per-item pricing for tile repairs and skylights — all from your phone on the roof. Attach drone photos and inspection reports directly to the job record. Convert accepted quotes to GST-compliant invoices with a single tap — your ABN and roofing licence number printed on every document. Track expenses against each job so you know your true margin after tip fees, scaffold hire, and crew labour. And when BAS time rolls around, your GST summary is already waiting.

Your Daily Workflow

It's 6:30am and your phone buzzes — an emergency leak callout through your OneBookPlus booking page. Storm last night, water coming through a Glenelg ceiling. The job is auto-tagged urgent on your job board. You head out. On the roof you find three cracked tiles around a chimney flashing and you build a quote on your phone: $220 labour including emergency rate, $80 for replacement tiles and lead flashing, GST calculated automatically. The homeowner accepts on the spot via the quote link. Job done by 8am. You snap drone photos of the repaired chimney, attach them to the job record, and convert the quote to an invoice before you're back in the ute. Your week view shows a ridge repointing at 10am and a Colorbond gutter quote at 2pm. Your apprentice has two inspection appointments and can see his schedule on his own device.

Bank Feeds & Accounting

Connect your business bank account via CDR Open Banking and OneBookPlus pulls in transactions daily. When the Glenelg customer pays that emergency callout invoice, the payment is automatically matched against the outstanding amount — no manual reconciliation needed. Purchases from Bristile, BlueScope/Lysaght, or Stratco are categorised as materials expenses. Tip fees and skip hire go to disposal costs. Our AI categorisation engine learns your patterns: ute fuel goes to vehicle expenses, scaffolding hire to job costs, harness and PPE purchases to safety. Come BAS time, your GST collected on sales and GST paid on purchases are already tallied. Export the summary in one click and forward it to your accountant — or lodge it yourself in minutes.

Getting Started

Sign up free — no credit card, no lock-in contract. Select “Roofer” as your business type and OneBookPlus pre-configures your account with roofing service categories, typical job durations, and invoice templates that include your licence number. Import your customer list via CSV from ServiceM8, Tradify, or a spreadsheet. Connect your bank account through the secure Open Banking flow. Most roofers have their first quote sent within 30 minutes of signing up, and their bank feed categorising transactions by the end of the first week. The switch from ServiceM8 and Xero typically takes a single evening.
