A CLEANER PROCUREMENT PROCESS
Make the contractors compete on the full proposal.
The cheapest total is often the least complete scope. Compare the system, warranty, schedule, allowances, exclusions, and project assumptions before anyone is awarded the work.
Compare complete offers
Review price, system, membrane thickness, warranty, timeline, allowances, and exclusions side by side.
Keep the scope controlled
Plans, roof reports, site notes, addenda, questions, and clarifications stay attached to the same project.
Match the right contractors
Invite roofers based on system experience, service area, project size, insurance, and bonding requirements.
COMMERCIAL BID ROOM
See why the numbers are different.
Each proposal is leveled against the same core project details so the buyer can identify meaningful differences instead of comparing three unrelated PDFs.
- Roof system and membrane thickness
- Manufacturer and workmanship warranty
- Tear-off, insulation, drainage, and edge details
- Rooftop equipment, cranes, access, and tenant limits
- Schedule, alternates, allowances, and exclusions

HOW IT WORKS
Four controlled steps from scope to award.
Everyone receives the same information, deadline, and clarifications. That sounds obvious, yet commercial bidding has spent decades trying to avoid it.
Submit the property and scope
Add the location, project stage, roof details, plans, reports, access limits, and bid deadline.
We review and organize it
The buyer, project status, documents, requirements, and contractor fit are checked before invitations go out.
Qualified roofers bid privately
Every invited roofer receives the same scope, updates, questions, and deadline without seeing competing prices.
Compare and award
Evaluate the entire proposal, request clarification, and sign directly with the roofer you select.
PROJECT TYPES
Built for serious commercial roof work.
The platform is designed for projects where scope control, bidder quality, occupied-use planning, and proposal comparison actually matter.
Retail and shopping centers
Occupied properties, tenant coordination, phased work, delivery access, and business-hour restrictions.
Warehouses and distribution
Large low-slope roofs, logistics constraints, interior protection, drainage, and production scheduling.
Multifamily communities
Apartments, townhomes, senior living, occupied units, multiple buildings, and resident communication needs.
Industrial facilities
Special access, safety requirements, rooftop equipment, shutdown windows, and complex scope coordination.
HOAs and associations
Board review, reserve planning, standardized proposals, phased communities, and documented bid comparisons.
Developments and new construction
Plans, alternates, schedules, approved systems, addenda, bid leveling, and project-specific qualifications.
CONTROLLED MARKETPLACE ACCESS
We check the project and the contractors.
Contractors should know whether a request is a real project, a budget exercise, or early planning. Buyers should know whether invited roofers fit the required system, scale, and insurance profile.
- Buyer authority and project stage identified
- Live bid, budget request, and planning status labeled
- Commercial license and insurance records reviewed
- Roof system and project-scale fit considered
- Private pricing maintained throughout the bid period
Arizona license review
Company identity, license records, supported roof systems, and service area are reviewed before access.
Insurance and bonding fit
Insurance documentation and project-specific bonding requirements are matched before invitations are issued.
Commercial experience
Roof system capability, project scale, completed work, and operational capacity are considered during approval.
Ongoing marketplace standards
Expired records, false information, serious complaints, or poor participation can restrict or remove access.

ONE STANDARDIZED PROJECT FILE
Give every roofer the same job.
The bid package can organize the details that usually get scattered across email chains, phone calls, handwritten notes, and whichever spreadsheet still opens without a warning message.
- Plans, roof reports, photographs, and inspection notes
- Existing system, desired system, and approved alternates
- Solar, rooftop HVAC, cranes, curbs, and penetrations
- Occupied-use limits, access, staging, and work-hour rules
- Bid form, deadline, warranty requirements, and allowances
Large or complex requests may require a review fee, deposit, or paid bid fee before contractors are invited. Any requirement is shown before the bid room opens.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Know the rules before roofers spend estimating time.
Does submitting the form immediately open a bid room?
No. We first review the buyer, project stage, files, scope, timeline, and contractor requirements before inviting roofers.
Can I request budget pricing before the project is fully designed?
Yes. The project is clearly labeled as a budget request so contractors understand the stage and likelihood of an immediate award.
Can contractors see competing bids?
No. Pricing remains private while the bid room is open. Contractors receive the same project information without seeing another company’s offer.
What information should be included?
Include the property, roof report or plans, current system, desired system, rooftop equipment, access restrictions, occupied-use limits, warranty needs, bid deadline, and known alternates.
Who signs the final roofing contract?
The property owner or authorized project party signs directly with the licensed roofing contractor they choose.
Does AZ Roof Estimator manage construction?
No. We organize the bidding and comparison process. The selected contractor and any hired design or management team remain responsible for construction, safety, code, schedule, and warranty obligations.
