Roof Measurement Reports for Roofing Contractors

The total roof area (pitch-corrected sloped area and footprint area) in square feet and squares; the predominant pitch and slope multiplier; area by roof plane and areas per pitch; eave, rake, ridge, hip and valley lengths, plus wall and headwall flashing where the roof meets a wall; a waste table; a material take-off; the aerial image; the roof outline traced over it; and diagrams with every edge length and each face’s area and pitch.

Your first 2 reports are free, with no credit card. After that a report is $10 CAD (≈ $7 USD), or $199 CAD a month covers up to 30 reports. The price is the same for every roof size. Compare report plans and pricing.

Reports are delivered in 1–3 hours, and usually in under an hour. Every report is traced and reviewed by our team, so a complex roof, unclear imagery or a busy queue can take longer. You get an email when it is ready, and it appears in your dashboard.

Accuracy depends on the quality and visibility of the available aerial imagery. On properties with high-quality imagery, Roof Manager measurements can achieve 98.5% accuracy against an on-roof tape measure. Trees, shadows, low-resolution imagery and hidden roof edges can reduce accuracy. Every report states that its measurements come from aerial imagery and recommends physical verification for code-critical work, so confirm key dimensions on site before ordering materials.

Not to measure it: the roof is traced on aerial imagery. You will still want a site visit to inspect the roof’s condition, the decking and anything the imagery cannot show.

We do not guess at roof edges the imagery cannot show: our team declines the order instead. You get an email saying we are unable to complete the report, and the report credit goes back to your account for another order. A report bought on its own comes back as account credit, not a cash refund. Before a report is delivered you can also add your own drone photos to the order.

Yes. It prints the predominant pitch as a ratio and in degrees, the slope multiplier, and a table of how much roof area sits at each pitch. The face-areas drawing shows the pitch of each face.

Yes. Each is measured in linear feet and totalled, and the diagram labels every edge with its length and totals them by roof level. Step and headwall flashing lengths are added where the roof meets a wall.

Yes. The material take-off lists field shingle bundles (with and without waste), underlayment, ice & water shield, ridge cap, starter strip, drip edge and valley flashing, and gutter length when the eaves are measured for it. The quantities are calculated from the measurements and the waste factor, which you can change in the report viewer. Review them before you order materials.

You can reference the report’s measurements and quantities when you prepare an estimate in your own estimating software. Roof Manager is not affiliated with any insurer, and whether a report is accepted for a claim is up to the insurer or adjuster.

No. Roof Manager is not integrated with Xactimate or Verisk. You can enter the report’s measurements in your estimating software yourself, and the Materials Calculator can export its material list as an XML file. It is not an ESX file.

A roof report is a measured report you order for one property: areas, pitch, every edge length, diagrams and a material take-off. Instant Estimator is a separate add-on for your website: a homeowner pins their roof and sees a price range built from your rates. It does not produce a measurement report.

Available across the U.S., Canada and additional supported regions, subject to imagery availability. See coverage by country.

Yes. The sample roof measurement report is a complete Roof Manager report with the property’s address, location and account details removed. It opens in your browser, and you can download the same report as a PDF.
