Siding & Gutters

The bid is written on the driveway, not at a desk.

You walked the elevations, counted the squares, measured the runs, and the homeowner is standing right there wanting a number. Going back to the office to write it up means two more days and a competitor who answered faster.

Jobkore runs from the phone in your truck. Price the job in the driveway, send it before you leave, and follow up without digging through a notebook.

Siding and gutters are two scopes. Price them that way.

Wrap, flashing, trim, and siding go by the square. Gutter, downspout, and guard go by the linear foot. Bury them in one number and the homeowner cannot tell what the gutters cost when they ask you to drop them from the job.

Build the estimate in sections — tear-off, repairs, wrap, siding, trim, gutters — with the units that match how you actually buy and install.

Rot behind the old siding is a change order, not a surprise.

You cannot see sheathing until the wall is open. When the tear-off finds soft sheathing, rotted trim, or a window that was never flashed, write it as a change order against the original estimate — photo, scope, price, signature — before your crew keeps going.

The homeowner approves it on the phone while you are still on the wall. No end-of-job argument about what the extra $1,800 was for.

Deposit for material, balance at final walk.

Siding is bought by the job and it is not returnable once it is cut. Bill a deposit against the accepted estimate to cover material, then invoice the balance when the last downspout is strapped. Every invoice pulls from the same estimate, so the credit is already applied and you always know what is outstanding.

Hank AI™ turns the walk-around into a structured bid.

You noted the elevations, the square count, the gutter runs, and photographed the trouble spots. Hand those notes to Hank AI™ and the estimate comes back in sections — tear-off, wrap, siding, trim, gutters, haul-off. Your pricing goes on top.

Hank never invents quantities, rates, or margins. It organizes what you measured.

Paid by card. No platform fee from us.

The invoice goes out with a payment link. The client pays by card or bank transfer. Stripe processes at their standard rate. Jobkore adds nothing on top.
