Roofing Contractor Software in Indiana
Most roofing CRMs were built for enterprise shops with a full office staff. This one wasn't. ExteriorPro is for the crew doing 40 to 200 roofs a year who are tired of tracking inspections in a notebook, chasing adjusters by text, and wondering which estimates actually went out. Log a lead the second it comes in. Pull the measurements into an estimate without re-keying. Attach inspection photos to the job, not a random phone gallery. Send the invoice the same day the crew comes off the roof.
Storm season in Indiana means the phone won't stop — ExteriorPro makes sure every call turns into a logged lead and a same-day callback, not a sticky note on the dashboard.
From $199/month per location. No credit card required to start.

Photos on the job
Site and progress photos attached to the job, not lost in a phone gallery.
Invoicing and payments
Invoice when the crew comes off the job and track what's still owed.
Indiana has no statewide license for roofers. The state licenses plumbers and nobody else, so the rules come from the city or county where the house is, and they are all different. Indianapolis and the rest of Marion County require a license from the Department of Business and Neighborhood Services, which takes a $247 fee, a $10,000 bond, and $500,000 in liability insurance, with no exam. Fort Wayne and Allen County have their own set of licenses, including one that covers roofing only. A company that works Indy, Fort Wayne, and the counties in between is carrying a stack of local paper, and each one renews on its own schedule.
What the state does regulate is the contract. Under Indiana's Home Improvement Contracts Act, any job over $150 has to be in writing, and the contract has to include the names and addresses of both parties, a description of the work, the price, and an estimated start date and completion date. The contractor signs it before the homeowner signs or pays anything. That completion date is the line homeowners remember, so it should be a date the schedule can actually hit.
Hail is the business. Central and northern Indiana sit in the same storm track as Ohio and Illinois, and most springs bring at least one hail event that puts a whole subdivision on the phone. Insurance work follows, with the adjuster meetings and supplements that come with it. The northwest corner, from Gary over to South Bend, adds lake-effect snow and the ice dams that come with it.
The housing is in two halves. Hamilton County north of Indianapolis, with Carmel, Fishers, and Westfield, has been building subdivisions since the 1990s, and the builder-grade shingles on the first wave of those houses are aging out now. That is a replacement market with a lot of houses that look the same and a lot of homeowners comparing bids. The older cities, Indianapolis inside the loop, Fort Wayne, Evansville, and the Region up by Gary, are 1950s ranches and older, with layers to tear off and decking to replace.
