What's broken on most roofing websites
When weather hits, the site floods us with inspection requests but half of them are missing the details we need to move fast. Most roofing sites ask for almost nothing before someone requests an inspection. Storm damage, leak calls, planned replacements, and insurance-driven shoppers all hit the same office queue with no photos, no claim context, and no real scope. That delay costs real money because the first credible inspection appointment often wins the roof.
Cost of delay
A missed roofing lead can mean losing an inspection, the full replacement revenue behind it, and the referral value that would have followed.
Industry context lives at /for/roofing.
What the connected website changes
What a Jobber-connected website does instead
The website qualifies whether the homeowner needs repair, replacement, or storm-damage inspection before the handoff starts. On the native path, Jobber receives a Request immediately. On the custom path, the site can run Jobber's OAuth authorization-code flow and GraphQL API so the Client record and scope detail are cleaner before the office works the next step.
Native path
Use Jobber's native request path when the roofing company mainly needs simple inspection capture inside Jobber.
API or managed intake
Use Jobber's GraphQL path when the site needs stronger pre-qualification around photos, insurance, or replacement screening.
Connection patterns
How the connection works
Native Jobber Request intake
The site sends the homeowner directly into Jobber's request workflow and the office sees the roofing inquiry inside Jobber right away. This is the simplest option when the company can work from a standard Request and add details later by phone.
When to use
Choose this when the business wants basic web-to-office handoff without deeper custom intake.
Custom roofing intake + Jobber GraphQL
The site captures claim status, property address, damage notes, and photos before a backend integration uses Jobber's OAuth 2.0 authorization-code flow and GraphQL API. That keeps roofing inspection requests from starting as blind leads the office has to reconstruct.
When to use
Choose this when storm leads and replacement leads need tighter qualification before callback.

We usually find 3 Jobber inspection leaks on roofing sites.
- We keep running into this: storm and replacement leads are mixed into one weak intake path.
- We keep running into this: the office has to chase photos and claim context after the lead is already cooling.
Workflow path
Typical roofing + Jobber workflows
Storm inspection request
Trigger
A homeowner wants someone to inspect storm damage fast.
Capture
The site gathers address, damage notes, and photos before the office responds.
Platform handoff
The handoff becomes a Jobber Request with more usable context than a generic form.
Planned replacement inquiry
Trigger
The prospect is comparing roof replacement options.
Capture
The site captures scope and timing instead of treating it like a leak call.
Platform handoff
Jobber receives a cleaner Request or Client handoff for sales follow-up.
Repair lead routing
Trigger
The buyer needs a smaller leak or repair visit.
Capture
The intake helps the office route a lower-scope job without losing it in storm volume.
Platform handoff
Jobber keeps the request inside the operating workflow rather than an email chain.

We will show how storm leads, repair work, and replacement inquiries can land in Jobber without the usual inspection handoff drag.
If the team keeps saying "When weather hits, the site floods us with inspection requests but half of them are missing the details we need to move fast", we show where the handoff breaks before recommending a rebuild.
