ShingleSync runs your roofing jobs from the first call to the final payment. This manual follows one job through every step, in the order it happens. Each step shows who usually does it: the sales rep, the office, the project manager, the crew or the owner.

Field work is built for your phone. Office work is easier on a computer. It's the same account on both, so pick up wherever you left off.

Add ShingleSync to your home screen

  • Android (Chrome): open ShingleSync, tap the ⋮ menu, then Add to Home screen or Install app.

When there's a new version, ShingleSync shows A new version is ready with a Reload button.
