Jobber for roofing

Roofing websites for Jobber that stop inspection leaks

Jobber teams usually see the leak when dispatch has to rebuild the story from scratch. When weather hits, the site floods us with inspection requests but half of them are missing the details we need to move fast. Storm demand and weak handoffs bleed roofing revenue fast. This page captures inspection context, then moves the homeowner into a real Jobber Client Request instead of a thin message that dies in the queue.

What's broken on most roofing websites

We still lose momentum because most roofing sites ask for almost nothing before someone requests an inspection. Storm damage, leak calls, planned replacements, and insurance-driven shoppers all hit the same office queue with no photos, no claim context, and no real scope. That delay costs real money because the first credible inspection appointment often wins the roof.

A missed roofing inquiry can mean losing an inspection, the full replacement revenue behind it, and the referral value that would have followed.

What a Jobber-connected website does instead

The website queues roofing demand for Jobber before the handoff starts. On the native path, Jobber receives a Client Request immediately. On the custom path, the site can run Jobber's OAuth authorization-code flow and GraphQL API so the Client record and scope detail are cleaner before the office works the next step.

Native option

Use Jobber's native request path when the roofing company mainly needs simple inspection capture inside Jobber.

API option

Use Jobber's GraphQL path when the site needs stronger pre-qualification around photos, insurance, or replacement screening.

How the connection works

Simplest path

Native Jobber Client Request intake

The site sends the homeowner directly into Jobber's request workflow and the office sees the roofing inquiry inside Jobber right away. This is the simplest option when the company can work from a standard Client Request and add details later by phone.

When to use: Choose this when the business wants basic web-to-office handoff without deeper custom intake.

More control

Custom roofing intake + Jobber GraphQL

The site captures claim status, property address, damage notes, and photos before a backend integration uses Jobber's OAuth 2.0 authorization-code flow and GraphQL API. That keeps roofing inspection requests from starting as blind inquiries the office has to reconstruct.

When to use: Choose this when storm inspection requests and replacement inquiries need tighter qualification before callback.

What the website captures for roofing

A roofing website should qualify inspection quality, not just collect another generic contact submission.

Property address
Confirms service area and inspection routing.
Service needed
Separates repair, replacement, and inspection-only requests.
Insurance claim status
Shows whether the office needs a claim-aware follow-up.
Storm or leak details
Adds urgency and scope before the callback.
Photo upload
Gives the estimator visual context before the visit.

Typical roofing + Jobber workflows

Storm inspection request

Trigger: A homeowner wants someone to inspect storm damage fast.

Capture: The site gathers address, damage notes, and photos before the office responds.

Platform: The handoff becomes a Jobber Client Request with more usable context than a generic form.

Planned replacement inquiry

Trigger: The prospect is comparing roof replacement options.

Capture: The site captures scope and timing instead of treating it like a leak call.

Platform: Jobber receives a cleaner Client Request or Client handoff for sales follow-up.

Repair inquiry routing

Trigger: The buyer needs a smaller leak or repair visit.

Capture: The intake helps the office route a lower-scope job without losing it in storm volume.

Platform: Jobber keeps the Client Request inside the operating workflow rather than an email chain.

Why connect the website directly to Jobber

Faster inspection booking

Storm intent reaches the office before another roofer books the visit.

Better claim context

Insurance status and damage notes are captured earlier.

Cleaner replacement screening

Higher-value roofing work is easier to identify fast.

Less estimator rebuild work

Photos and scope arrive with the handoff instead of after three follow-ups.

Stronger office response

The first callback sounds informed instead of generic.

Frequently asked questions

Does this replace Jobber?

No. The website feeds Jobber and helps the office work inspection demand faster.

Can the site qualify storm inquiries better?

We need the intake to fix this exact problem: yes. The intake can capture claim status, photos, and damage context before the callback.

Do we have to start with the Jobber API?

Not always. Many roofing companies can start with native Client Requests and add GraphQL only when the intake needs more control.

What reaches Jobber first?

On the native path it is typically a Client Request. On the custom path the Client can be created first before the Client Request workflow continues.

We already have Jobber. Why change the website?

Jobber already runs the downstream workflow. The website still has to capture the right detail, route it cleanly, and start follow-up before that demand cools off.

We do not want more tools.

We do not add another disconnected tool just to say we added automation. The website and routing layer are built around Jobber so your team keeps one operating system and one source of truth.

We need more leads, not more process.

More leads do not fix a weak handoff. If the site is already dropping context or slowing response, buying more demand just makes Jobber absorb more noise instead of more booked jobs.
