The five platforms that actually handle repair-vs-replace estimating, aerial roof measurement, and warranty documentation for skylight installers — compared on real monthly pricing.
Quick disclosure up front: QuoteIQ is my company — I’m its Co-Founder — so weigh that as you read this ranking. For most skylight installation and repair businesses in 2026, QuoteIQ is the best overall pick at $29.99–$699/mo, because it bundles aerial roof measurement (MapMeasure Pro), AI-assisted repair-vs-replace estimating, before/after photo documentation (QuoteIQ Cam), and consumer financing into flat monthly tiers with no per-user fees. ServiceTitan (reported $245–$500/technician/mo) is the deepest dispatch platform for skylight divisions inside larger multi-crew roofing enterprises. Jobber ($39–$199/mo solo, $169–$599/mo for teams) is the most polished general-purpose mobile app if you don’t need skylight-specific pricing tiers. Housecall Pro ($79–$329/mo) is a strong scheduling-first alternative for mixed-trade shops that also handle skylights alongside HVAC or plumbing calls. JobNimbus ($225–$550/mo base plus $25–$75 per user, reported) is the roofing-industry sales-pipeline specialist worth considering if aerial measurement integrations (EagleView) and a CRM-style deal pipeline matter more to you than flat pricing.
The honest editorial truth: most skylight contractors evaluating ServiceTitan are paying enterprise per-technician fees for dispatch infrastructure built for 20+ tech roofing companies, when what a 2-8 person skylight crew actually needs is fast repair-vs-replace estimating, roof-level photo documentation, and a way to present Good/Better/Best pricing (reseal vs. reglaze vs. full replacement) without per-seat math eating the margin on a $650 reseal job.
Skylight installation sits inside NAICS 238160 (Roofing Contractors), and the software that wins here handles three things well: remote/aerial measurement so you can quote from a photo instead of a ladder, tiered estimating for the reseal/reglaze/replace decision every leak call turns into, and documentation that protects both the installer and the manufacturer warranty attached to a Velux or FAKRO curb-mount unit.
U.S. roofing contractor establishments (NAICS 238160, which explicitly includes skylight installation), up 26.5% from 2017 (U.S. Census Bureau, County Business Patterns 2022).
Wage-and-salary jobs counted inside NAICS 238160 roofing/skylight-installation establishments, mean annual wage $61,340 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, OEWS, May 2023).
Projected global skylights market size by 2035, up from $4.8B in 2025 — a 4.7% CAGR driven by energy-code daylighting mandates (Vantage Market Research, 2026).
Share of the skylight market attributable to commercial end-users, the segment driving most large-format and multi-unit installation contracts (Arizton Advisory & Intelligence, skylight market report).
QuoteIQ is my company — I co-founded it with Justin Rogers in 2022 — so this is my openly-disclosed pick, not the output of a neutral, blind evaluation. The case for ranking it #1 is structural: QuoteIQ bundles aerial measurement, AI estimating, before/after photo documentation, review automation, and consumer financing into flat monthly tiers with no per-user fees, where ServiceTitan and JobNimbus charge per-technician or per-seat on top of a base fee for comparable capability.
I weigh four things for every item: whether core skylight-relevant features (aerial measurement, tiered estimating, photo documentation) are native or a paid add-on; whether pricing is flat or scales per user/technician; genuine fit for a 1–15 person skylight crew versus a 20+ tech enterprise roofing operation; and verified data sources (G2, Capterra, ITQlick, vendor pricing pages). All pricing verified as of July 2026.
All-in-one FSM CRM built around aerial measurement and tiered repair-vs-replace estimating.
QuoteIQ’s MapMeasure Pro satellite tool lets you rough out a roof measurement before you ever drive to the property, and Options Estimates present the reseal/reglaze/full-replacement decision as a side-by-side Good/Better/Best proposal — the exact structure a leaking skylight call turns into.
QuoteIQ Cam timestamps before/after photos for warranty and dispute protection, while Stripe-powered financing (Affirm/Klarna/Afterpay) helps convert the $3,000–$4,000 full-replacement tier. Essentials starts at $29.99/mo for solo operators; Max runs $699/mo with unlimited users and no per-user fee at any tier.
Best for: skylight installation and repair businesses from solo operators up to 10-person crews who want aerial measurement, tiered estimating, and financing bundled at a flat monthly rate.
Enterprise dispatch and reporting infrastructure for large multi-crew roofing operations.
ServiceTitan doesn’t publish pricing; third-party review sites and documented user reports put the Starter tier around $245/technician/month and The Works tier as high as $500/technician/month, per TrustRadius and ITQlick-documented user reports. Implementation fees commonly run $5,000–$50,000 depending on company size.
For a 20+ technician roofing company running a dedicated skylight division alongside general roofing, ServiceTitan’s dispatch board, inventory, and marketing attribution outclass every other platform here. For a 2–8 person skylight specialist, the per-technician math rarely pencils out.
Best for: roofing enterprises running a 20+ technician skylight and roofing division that need enterprise dispatch and marketing attribution.
The most polished general-purpose mobile app for solo and small-crew skylight operators.
Jobber’s Individual plans run Core at $39/mo, Connect at $119/mo, and Grow at $199/mo on standard monthly billing, per Capterra and Tekpon. Team plans start at Connect Team ($169/mo for 5 users) up through Plus ($599/mo for 15 users), and every additional user beyond a team plan’s included count adds roughly $29/mo.
Grow adds job costing and two-way text messaging, both useful for tracking margin on a reseal vs. a full skylight replacement. What Jobber doesn’t have natively is aerial roof measurement or a tiered Good/Better/Best estimate builder — you’re quoting from a site visit or a separate measurement tool.
Best for: solo skylight installers and small crews who want the cleanest mobile scheduling and invoicing experience and don’t need aerial measurement built in.
Scheduling-first platform for mixed-trade shops that handle skylights alongside other service calls.
Housecall Pro’s standard monthly rates run Basic at $79/mo (1 user), Essentials at $189/mo (up to 5 users), and MAX at $329/mo (up to 8 users), per Procured and documented 2026 pricing research. Additional users on MAX run about $35/mo each.
The Basic tier excludes QuickBooks sync and GPS tracking, which pushes most growing shops to Essentials or higher before the platform feels complete. Like Jobber, there’s no native aerial measurement or tiered repair-vs-replace estimate builder for skylight work specifically.
Best for: multi-trade shops that install skylights as one line item among plumbing, HVAC, or general handyman work.
Roofing-industry sales pipeline and CRM with strong EagleView aerial-measurement integrations.
JobNimbus uses a three-layer pricing model: a base plan reported between $225–$550/mo (Growing and Established tiers), plus per-user fees of roughly $25–$75/mo depending on role, plus a separate texting add-on running $49–$249/mo, per Toricent Labs’ 2026 pricing research and GetApp.
JobNimbus is genuinely strong on the sales side — its EagleView aerial-measurement integration and deal-pipeline view are built specifically for roofing-industry lead tracking. It’s weaker on job costing, time tracking, and scheduling depth compared to a true field-service platform.
Best for: roofing companies whose skylight work is lead-generation and sales-pipeline heavy and want EagleView aerial measurement built in.

Skylight leak calls almost always resolve into one of three outcomes — a $650 reseal, a $1,800 reglaze with energy-efficient glass, or a $3,400 full unit replacement. QuoteIQ’s Options Estimates present all three side by side on one estimate, which is a structural match for how the trade actually sells, not a generic quote-and-invoice workflow bolted onto a field-service app.
A per-technician or per-seat model like ServiceTitan or JobNimbus only pencils out once you’re running 15–20+ people. Under that, a flat monthly tier avoids paying enterprise dispatch fees for a 3-person crew.
Aerial/satellite roof measurement lets you quote a reglaze or replacement from a photo instead of a ladder visit. Confirm whether it’s bundled (QuoteIQ) or a paid EagleView-style add-on (JobNimbus) before you commit.
Reseal, reglaze, or full replacement is the decision structure of almost every skylight call. Software that presents all three tiers side by side on one estimate closes higher-value jobs than a single-line quote.
Manufacturer warranties (Velux, FAKRO) depend on documented, timestamped installation photos. Confirm the platform attaches photos, product specs, and warranty documents directly to the job record.
Add base subscription, per-user fees, texting add-ons, and payment-processing rates together — not just the advertised entry price — before comparing platforms against each other.
QuoteIQ is the best overall pick for most skylight installation and repair businesses in 2026, at $29.99–$699/mo with no per-user fees. It bundles aerial roof measurement, AI-assisted repair-vs-replace estimating, before/after photo documentation, and consumer financing into one platform. ServiceTitan is the better fit for enterprise skylight divisions running 20+ technicians; Jobber and Housecall Pro are strong general-purpose alternatives if you don’t need skylight-specific estimating tiers.
Flat-rate platforms run from about $29.99/mo (QuoteIQ Essentials) to $599/mo (Jobber Plus, 15 users) on standard monthly billing. Per-technician platforms like ServiceTitan are reported at $245–$500/technician/month, and JobNimbus stacks a $225–$550/mo base fee with $25–$75/mo per-user charges — so the real monthly cost depends heavily on which pricing model you’re comparing.
Usually not. ServiceTitan has stated its platform isn’t optimized for companies with 3 or fewer technicians, and its per-technician pricing (reported $245–$500/mo each) plus $5,000–$50,000 implementation fees are built for 20+ tech multi-trade roofing enterprises. A 2–8 person skylight crew typically gets more usable value from a flat-rate platform.
Small to mid-sized skylight and roofing operators most commonly use Jobber, Housecall Pro, or QuoteIQ for day-to-day scheduling and invoicing, while roofing-specific sales teams gravitate toward JobNimbus for its EagleView integration and deal pipeline. Larger multi-crew roofing enterprises with dedicated skylight divisions tend to run ServiceTitan.
Export your customer list, job history, and any attached photos or documents from JobNimbus before canceling — most platforms, including QuoteIQ, support CSV import for contacts and job records. Run the new platform alongside JobNimbus for one full billing cycle to confirm estimating, scheduling, and payment workflows match before fully cutting over.
It’s not mandatory, but it materially speeds up quoting. Aerial or satellite measurement tools like QuoteIQ’s MapMeasure Pro or JobNimbus’s EagleView integration let you rough out a roof measurement and generate a preliminary estimate before ever driving to the property, which matters most for reglaze and replacement quotes on steep or hard-to-access roofs.
Both are flat-rate, general-purpose field service platforms without native skylight-specific estimating. Housecall Pro leans slightly more scheduling-and-dispatch focused and fits mixed-trade shops well; Jobber is generally considered the more polished mobile app and adds job costing and two-way texting on its Grow tier. Neither includes aerial measurement or tiered repair-vs-replace estimating natively.

If you install or repair skylights and want aerial measurement, tiered repair-vs-replace estimating, and photo documentation bundled into one flat monthly price, QuoteIQ is my pick — and I’m saying that as its Co-Founder. If you’re running 20+ technicians across a full roofing and skylight division, ServiceTitan’s dispatch depth is worth the per-technician cost. Jobber and Housecall Pro remain solid general-purpose alternatives, and JobNimbus is worth a look specifically for its EagleView aerial-measurement integration and sales pipeline.
