FAQ

Questions roofers ask

What is RoofTakeoff?

An iPhone app for roofing contractors in the US. Measure a roof on satellite, from a few dimensions or plane by plane, get the full material list with your own prices, and send a branded PDF estimate your customer can sign.

How do I measure a roof without climbing it?

Two ways. Tap Build from dimensions, pick the roof type (gable, hip, Dutch hip, gambrel, mansard, shed or flat) and the house shape (rectangle, L, T, U or cross), then enter length, width, pitch and overhang. Or tap Measure on satellite, search the address and outline the roof on Apple Maps imagery.

Can I see the roof in 3D?

Yes. Any roof built from dimensions can be checked as a 2D plan with every edge length, or turned and zoomed as a 3D model before you climb.

What materials does it calculate?

Shingle bundles, starter strip, hip and ridge cap, synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield at eaves and valleys, drip edge, coil nails, ridge vent, step and headwall flashing, pipe boots, box and turbine vents, chimney and skylight flashing, decking sheets and low-slope membrane.

How is waste handled?

Waste is added to shingles only, the way estimators and insurance software do it. When you build from dimensions RoofTakeoff suggests it by roof shape: about 10% for a gable, 15% for a hip, 20% for a cut-up roof. You can change it on any estimate.

Can I put my own logo on the PDF?

Yes, with RoofTakeoff Pro. Add your logo once in Settings and it tops every estimate, above your company name, license and contact details. A PNG with a transparent background looks best.

How many estimates are free?

The free plan includes 3 new estimates every month. RoofTakeoff Pro gives you unlimited estimates and your own logo on every PDF. Every measuring tool is free.

Is my customer data uploaded anywhere?

No. Your estimates and customers stay on your iPhone. The only exception is satellite measuring: the address you search is sent to Apple Maps to find the property. Read the Privacy Policy for details.
