Roofing AI and Automation for Chicago Contractors
RoofMaxing helps roofing businesses serving Chicago connect their lead response and follow-up process. This page concerns support for contractors, not roof installation for homeowners.
The Chicago focus: commercial proposal follow-up
Chicago roofing businesses bid on commercial flat-roof and re-roof projects with long decision timelines. The challenge is tracking which proposal is still open, which property manager has the next action, and when to follow up without becoming a nuisance.
RoofMaxing helps define a commercial proposal follow-up workflow that enrolls each sent proposal in a sequence tied to the bid timeline. The system tracks the property manager's responses and surfaces proposals that have gone quiet past their decision date.
A practical handoff example
A commercial estimator sends a re-roof proposal to a property management firm in the Loop. The system enrolls the proposal in a follow-up sequence: a check-in after one week, a status request after two weeks, and a final review offer after the bid deadline.
If the property manager requests a revision, the system routes the message to the estimator, pauses the sequence, and restarts it when the revised proposal is sent. The estimator can see which commercial proposals are open and which have passed their decision date.
