1. Oregon-specific invoice requirements
- Sales tax line: 0.00% state rate. Most services rendered in Oregon are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. No state or local sales tax. CAT (corporate activity tax) on businesses >$1M revenue.
- Late-fee cap: Oregon statute Or. Rev. Stat. §82.010 caps interest on unpaid invoices at 1.5% per month. Spell out the rate in writing on every invoice and in your contract — courts won't enforce undisclosed fees.
- Right-to-cancel notice: Customers in Oregon get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.
2. Roofer line items + standard terms
Every roofer invoice in Oregon should itemize work clearly. Standard roofers use Net 14 terms with a 33% deposit required upfront.
- Tear-off — billed by flat.
- Underlayment — billed by itemized.
- Shingles / membrane — billed by itemized.
- Labor — billed by hour (~$75 default).
- Disposal fee — billed by flat.
3. Roofer licensing in Oregon
Most states require a roofing-specific or general contractor license. Manufacturer warranty often requires certified installer.
4. Send and follow up
Send the invoice the same day work completes. Use software that records open events and offers a one-click online payment so you don't need to chase a check by mail. Oregon customers expect digital payment options today — accepting card and ACH typically reduces days-to-paid by 30–50%.
