Take-offs & estimating

Roofing take-offs

Roofers and roofing suppliers send us the plans, and we send back true roof areas, sheet lengths and every ridge, hip, valley and flashing, so you can price and order with confidence.

Gabled home whose roof is measured for a roofing take-off

What we measure

  • Long-run steel roofing by profile
  • Concrete and clay tiles
  • Membrane and low-pitch roofs
  • Flashings, barges and apron flashings
  • Spouting, downpipes and rainwater heads

Measured from the pitch

Plan area understates a pitched roof. We calculate each plane from its pitch and length, so the area, the sheet lengths and the flashings reflect what goes on the roof rather than what shows on the plan.

Questions we are asked

Do you list sheet lengths for long-run roofing?

Yes. We list every run, so your supplier can roll the sheets to length.
