Better estimate requests
Turn a vague quote request into a consistent intake record while leaving inspection findings and pricing to your team.
Separate replacement, repair, inspection, and storm requests for appropriate follow-up.
Capture material, age, stories, property type, symptoms, and timing once.
Let homeowners attach safe-to-take exterior and interior photos, prior quotes, or project documents for initial review.
Built for roofing leads
Choose a request type, then edit questions for your service area.
Ask about roof age, current and desired materials, concerns, and the project window.
Surface active water entry, interior location, recent weather, temporary protection, and availability for a visit.
Record event timing, visible conditions, temporary work, optional claim status, and files.
Collect building use, area, roof system, access rules, bid dates, contacts, and scopes.
Form-building workflow
Describe your work, review the questions, and publish a link homeowners can complete before scheduling.
Name the project types, service area, roof systems, property details, and qualification questions your estimator uses.
Require essential contact fields and show leak, storm, commercial, or replacement questions only when relevant.
Share its link on your website, ads, email, or QR code.
Use the scope, photos, location, and availability to prioritize follow-up.
Form vs phone note vs document
The estimate still depends on inspection and pricing. The form improves what your team knows beforehand.
Field guide
Use these six sections to collect enough context for follow-up without asking homeowners to diagnose roof conditions themselves.
Requester
Identify the requester and anyone else who should join scheduling or approval conversations.
Property
The site address and building details help determine service eligibility, travel, access, and visit scale.
Roof
Ask for facts the owner may know and offer an unknown option rather than forcing technical guesses.
Need
Let homeowners select a likely service and describe what they see. Your team can confirm the scope later.
Evidence
Uploads add context before dispatch. Request only images people can take safely, without climbing onto a roof.
Next step
Collect follow-up details so active leaks and planned replacements can enter appropriate scheduling paths.

Practical answers for roofing contractors creating a consistent homeowner intake process.
It is an intake form for requesting roofing pricing or an inspection. It gathers contact, property, roof, scope, photo, access, and timing details for contractor follow-up.
Include contact and address details, property type, stories, service needed, known roof material and age, visible concerns, timing, access notes, photos, and preferred inspection times. Offer unknown choices for technical fields.
Yes. Use a project-type choice with follow-up paths. Ask repair leads about leaks and affected areas; ask replacement leads about roof age, materials, additions, and timing.
Photos can support initial review. Request ground-level exterior or safely accessible interior images, and clearly state that nobody should climb onto a roof or enter an unsafe area.
No. The form organizes the request. Inspection findings, measurements, materials, labor, site conditions, and company pricing still determine the scope and price the contractor provides.
Yes. Ask about current water entry, event timing, temporary covering, and safe access. Use the answers for routing without promising an arrival time or outcome.
Yes. Makeform is unlimited free for generating, editing, publishing, and collecting responses. The paid tier only removes the Makeform badge.
Confirm receipt, review location, project type, urgency, photos, and access, then explain whether the next step is a call, document review, or site inspection.
Turn quote inquiries into useful project briefs.
