Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Toolcie for roofing

In Toolcie, you create a custom unit with the formula that matches your pricing method: developed area with a pitch coefficient (L × W × coefficient), the hypotenuse of a slope (√(L² + H²)), or a simple rectangular area for flat sections. You enter the dimensions once and the area is calculated automatically. The calculation breakdown appears on the PDF sent to the client for full pricing transparency.

In Toolcie, you build your item library by material type: interlocking tiles per m², plain tiles per unit, natural slate, synthetic slate, zinc sheet, steel decking, sandwich panels. Each item has its own unit price and tax rate. You combine several materials on the same quote when needed, and each line is calculated automatically.

Gutters and flashing are often a major part of a roofing project. In Toolcie, you structure your quote with a dedicated group (“Gutters”) that bundles your tasks: gutters per linear meter, downpipes, box gutters, ridges, valleys, flashing. The group has its own subtotal and tax rate, which makes the pricing clear for your client.

Yes. Many roofers also install gutters and even framing, and their projects combine all three activities. In Toolcie, you structure your quote with one group per activity (“Roofing”, “Gutters”, “Framing”, “Insulation”), with a subtotal and a separate tax rate per group when needed. Your item library bundles your tasks for all three trades, and the client immediately sees the project breakdown.

A professional roofing quote should detail the scope of work broken down by task or phase — tear-off, roofing, gutters, insulation — with quantities, unit prices, and the applicable tax rate per line. It should also list any optional items and your payment terms. In Toolcie, you build this with groups and subgroups, add your roof photos, and send for e-signature. Once accepted, the quote converts to a deposit or balance invoice in one click.

Toolcie for roofers: pricing a roof from start to finish

A roofing project blends very different tasks: tearing off and removing the old covering, fitting the underlay membrane, insulating the loft or via sarking, the new covering (tiles, slate, zinc, steel decking), guttering (gutters, box gutters, ridges), scaffolding and working at height. Toolcie lets you structure each quote with as many groups as you need, and reuse your common items from your library.

Calculating the area of a pitched roof: custom formulas

The real area of a pitched roof is always greater than the footprint. Toolcie includes a custom-units system with free-form formulas that adapts to your pricing method: developed area with a pitch coefficient, the hypotenuse of a slope (√(L² + H²)), ridge or eaves length in linear meters, footprint area for flat roofs. Quantities are calculated automatically as soon as you enter the dimensions, and the breakdown appears on the PDF to reassure your client.

Roofer-gutter installer or roofer-carpenter: one quote for several trades

Many tradespeople combine roofing and guttering, sometimes framing or flat-roof waterproofing too. Toolcie lets you manage these activities without extra software: you organize your item library with your roofing, guttering, framing or waterproofing tasks, and combine them freely on each quote. You offer a complete project to your client without juggling several tools.
