AR automation for roofing

Half your jobs wait on an insurance adjuster or a GC's retainage release, so cash sits behind milestones and lien deadlines instead of a normal clock. Monk tracks each draw, retainage hold, and insurance payment to its job. It follows up the day money is due.

Release retainage. See the cash ahead

For the AR / OPS TEAM

Retainage releases when the paperwork does

Retention of 5 to 10% sits on every project until the closeout package lands and that package is warranty certificates, as-builts, and lien waivers rather than anything AR controls. Meanwhile preliminary notice and lien deadlines run on a separate clock per job. Monk tracks what each release is waiting on and follows up until the document arrives.

For the CONTROLLER / VP FINANCE

See the cash your aging report does not show

Tear-off exposes wet insulation and rotted deck, so crews perform change order work before anyone authorizes it. That work never appears in AR. Add held retention across every open job and a meaningful share of the year is parked outside the aging. Monk forecasts both so you can plan payroll and material against real timing.

Step 3

Cash starts moving

manual collections and cash application are completed on your behalf so your team's focus is on higher leverage activities
