Running a roofing company in 2025 isn’t just about doing great work on the roof—it’s about managing mountains of paperwork, keeping up with insurance claims, handling customer calls, submitting estimates on time, and staying ahead of the competition.
Sound familiar? If you’re a roofer or general contractor, especially in high-demand markets like Houston and beyond, you’ve likely felt the pressure. That’s where back-office support comes in—but what does that actually mean?
What Is Back-Office Support for Roofers?
Back-office support refers to the behind-the-scenes administrative, operational, and technical help that keeps your business running smoothly.
Think of it as your remote team that handles everything from preparing estimates to answering phones, writing supplements, managing your books, and even helping with marketing.
At BuildOps HQ, we specialize in back-office solutions built specifically for roofing contractors—both residential and commercial.
What Tasks Can You Offload with Back-Office?
Here’s what roofers typically hand off to BuildOps HQ:
Estimates & Takeoffs: Accurate measurements and scopes using Xactimate, Roofr, PlanSwift, and more.
Supplements: We handle the back-and-forth with insurance companies, so you don’t have to.
Bookkeeping & Invoicing: Clean, organized financials without hiring an accountant.
Inbound Call Management & Virtual Assistants: No more missed leads or project delays.
Marketing & Lead Generation: From social media to paid ads, we help you build a real digital presence.
Training & Admin Systems: Get help navigating software, CRM tools, and operations.
Why It Matters More Than Ever
With labor shortages, high software costs, and increasing pressure to deliver faster, back-office support isn’t just a luxury—it’s a lifeline.
Many contractors don’t have the time or the budget to hire and train full-time admin staff. Others are stuck in the learning curve of complex systems like Xactimate or PlanSwift.
Outsourcing to a specialized roofing back-office team means less stress, better turnaround times, and more time for what grows your business.
Real Talk: Is Back Office Support for You?
Back-office support is for the contractor who’s wearing too many hats.
If you’re quoting jobs in your truck at night, missing inbound calls, or spending your weekends catching up on bookkeeping, this is for you.
BuildOps HQ is designed to help you grow without needing a big team—or big overhead.
