Roofing Estimating Services
Accurate roof area calculations, pitch factoring, and material takeoffs for all commercial and residential roofing systems.
Service Overview
Roofing projects require precise area calculations that account for pitch, hips, valleys, and waste. Our roofing estimating services provide contractors with exact material quantities to ensure competitive bidding and efficient procurement. Whether it's a steep-slope residential shingle roof or a massive flat commercial TPO system, our estimators utilize digital software to extract precise roof squares, linear footages for flashing, and exact insulation requirements. We take the guesswork out of roof measuring so you can focus on closing the sale.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate roofing waste?
Waste factors depend on the roof complexity (number of valleys, hips, dormers). We typically apply 10-15% for shingles and specific roll-width calculations for commercial membranes.
Can you estimate from satellite imagery?
Yes, if architectural plans are not available, we can use high-resolution aerial imagery to perform accurate roof takeoffs.
Do you estimate roof insulation?
Yes, for commercial flat roofs, we calculate the exact number of insulation boards, cover boards, and necessary adhesive or fasteners based on the specified R-value and assembly.
Are gutters included?
Yes, we measure all eaves and calculate the linear footage of gutters and the required downspouts.
