Proposals

Create and share proposals from the Hover platform.

Updated today

Roofing and siding contractors use Hover to turn estimates into ready-to-send proposals. With clear pricing options, easy sharing, and built-in e-signatures, homeowners can approve jobs faster - while you protect your margins.

Hover proposals are automatically created from your estimates, so there’s no reentry and no inconsistencies. Offer good, better, and best packages so homeowners can upgrade confidently, and sign on the spot.

We're rolling out a new and updated experience! If your app looks different, you may be on our legacy experience.

Start a proposal

Start a proposal from either the project details page or from the estimation view, depending on where you are in your workflow.

From the Project Details Page

  • Select the Proposals card

  • Choose Start proposal

From the estimation view

  • From the Project details card, select Start proposal


Select your estimate

Select the estimate(s) Hover should use to generate the proposal, then review the visual presentation with the homeowner so they can easily compare options.

Single estimate flow

If you only have one estimate to present, select it from the prompt.

Multiple estimate flow

Hover allows you to include multiple options in a single proposal. Common use cases include:

  • Standard vs. premium materials

  • Color or style alternatives

  • Upgrade options

Include up to 10 estimate options in one proposal.
