How Roof Squad Transformed Operations with AI + Salesforce

Work Ninjas was built to help contractors turn operational mess into momentum. That mission brought us to Roof Squad; a fast-growing roofing company expanding across five states, but held back by disconnected tools, manual workflows, and a CRM that couldn’t keep up. What started as a need for better tracking evolved into a complete Salesforce transformation, powered by AI and built for scale.

Faster response time. Roof Squad cut their quote turnaround from 48 hours to just 6 hours, speeding up sales and boosting close rates.

The story

The Situation

Roof Squad had the talent and demand to grow, but their tools were slowing them down. Relying on spreadsheets, and manual communication, the team struggled with missed leads, untracked jobs, and late billing. There was no automation, no real-time visibility, and no way to scale into new markets without breaking the system they had.

key steps

Our Approach

Roof Squad needed more than a new CRM. We built a fully customized Salesforce Sales Cloud platform tailored to their residential, commercial, and insurance workflows. The system integrates all key tools, automates tasks, and uses AI to improve efficiency across departments.

We built a tailored Salesforce system with custom objects for leads, jobs, claims, A/R, and contracts. Each workflow—residential, commercial, and insurance—was mapped with multi-stage pipelines. Role-based permissions and automated task handoffs ensured teams worked efficiently with clear responsibilities.

Integrated key platforms to centralize operations: Dialpad for call tracking, QuickBooks for invoicing, Nearmap for aerial imagery, Ramp for expense tracking, and DocuSign for digital contracts. Google Calendar and CallTrackingMetrics were also connected for scheduling and lead attribution.

Added AI tools for lead scoring, automated follow-up, and document generation. An AI collections bot prioritized overdue accounts. Real-time dashboards in Power BI and Tableau provided visibility into performance, job status, and financials.

“We were tired of CRMs that looked good on paper but didn’t reflect how roofing
companies really operate. Work Ninjas gave us the system we dreamed about but never thought we could afford. Now we’re running like a tech company that happens to do roofing.”
