What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Wins for Your Roofing Business
Save 15+ Hours Weekly on Manual Screening
Save 15+ Hours Weekly on Manual Screening: Your office manager no longer digs through stacks of applications for qualified tilers with at least 2 years in slate or composite roofing. Our AI filters for hands-on experience in steep-pitch installations or leak detection, delivering only top matches vetted for tool proficiency. Result: 40% faster hires, meaning your emergency repair bids get out the door quicker and crews hit the ground running on hail-damaged roofs within 48 hours.
Achieve 3x ROI Through Reduced Turnover
Achieve 3x ROI Through Reduced Turnover: Poor hires cost roofers up to $5,000 each in training and lost productivity on scaffold setups and weatherproofing tasks. Our system matches candidates to your workflow—think safety-focused pros certified in working at heights with prior experience in metal flashing repairs. Clients report 25% lower churn within the first 6 months, turning one-time hires into long-term assets that boost your repeat business for seasonal maintenance contracts.
Scale Hiring for Peak Seasons Without Extra Costs
Scale Hiring for Peak Seasons Without Extra Costs: Summer storms demand rapid crew expansion for tarping and temporary repairs, but manual processes bottleneck you. We automate sourcing from local pools of certified laborers, predicting needs based on weather data integration with NOAA alerts. Gain efficiency: hire 50% more without inflating payroll, keeping your margins intact even in high-demand months by filling gaps in gutter installation or ridge venting crews.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were calling agencies every spring for extra roofers with flat-roof experience, burning through 10 hours a week on follow-ups. Now, the system pulls in OSHA-certified guys from nearby trade schools automatically, including those skilled in TPO membrane installs. Hired three solid crew members in under a week last season after a major hail event—no headaches, and they jumped right into storm recovery jobs."
Mike Harlan
Operations Manager, Summit Roofing Pros (Serving Residential and Commercial Re-Roofs in the Midwest)
"Our foremen hated scheduling interviews around active job sites, especially during windy installs. This automation handles it all, even checks for OSHA fall protection certs and prior harness use. Saved us $8K in agency fees last year on cedar shake projects, and our turnover dropped 30% because we're hiring folks who actually get roofing rhythms and can handle ladder safety protocols."
Sarah Kline
HR Lead, Apex Roof Solutions (Specializing in Sustainable Roofing for Coastal Homes)
"Integrated it with our QuickBooks for easy payroll onboarding, including verifying experience in asphalt shingle underlayment. No more mismatched hires showing up without tools for torch-down applications. Time saved let us take on two big commercial flat-roof jobs this quarter without scrambling for labor, expanding our crew from 12 to 18 in just two weeks."
Tom Reyes
Owner, Elite Roofing Contractors (Expert in Low-Slope and Modified Bitumen Systems)

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI handle roofing-specific qualifications?
Our system is trained on home services data, scanning for keywords like 'TPO membrane installation' or 'commercial flat roofing.' It prioritizes candidates with verifiable experience, cross-referencing LinkedIn, certifications, and even local union records. For roofers, this means filtering out general laborers and surfacing pros ready for steep pitches or high-wind zones. We've seen accuracy rates hit 90% in matching, reducing bad hires that could delay jobs.
What's the setup time for this custom automation?
Typically 4-6 weeks from discovery to launch, depending on your workflow complexity. We start with a deep dive into your hiring process—like how you manage seasonal spikes for hail repairs—then build and test iteratively. No big-bang rollout; we integrate gradually to avoid disrupting ongoing projects. Post-launch, your team gets hands-on training, and we optimize based on the first hires.
Can it integrate with our existing scheduling software?
Absolutely. We connect it to tools like Jobber or Housecall Pro, automating candidate flow into your crew rosters. For example, when a new roofer is selected, their details auto-populate in schedules, including availability for weekend storm calls. This eliminates manual entry errors that plague roofing ops, saving hours and ensuring compliance docs are attached from day one.
How secure is candidate data in this system?
We prioritize roofing industry standards with enterprise-grade encryption and GDPR-compliant storage. Resumes and certs are handled securely, with role-based access so only foremen see relevant profiles. No data sharing without consent, and we audit regularly to meet OSHA-related privacy needs. Clients like yours appreciate this, especially when dealing with sensitive info on heights-trained workers.
What if our hiring needs change with market shifts?
Our systems are built modular, so adapting is straightforward—like adding modules for solar panel installers if you expand services. We include quarterly reviews to tweak algorithms based on trends, such as labor shortages post-storms. One client pivoted to eco-roofing hires mid-year; we updated sourcing in two weeks, maintaining their 20% time savings.
How do you measure ROI for roofing firms?
We track key metrics: hours saved on recruiting (target 15/week), reduction in agency fees (often 30-50%), and time-to-hire (down to 7 days). For roofers, this translates to more billable hours on sites. Post-implementation, we provide dashboards showing cost-per-hire drops and productivity gains, with benchmarks against industry averages like the 45-day norm for skilled trades.
