What you get
A roof measurement you can actually use
A footprint alone is not enough for an estimate. RoofV turns a traced outline into the practical numbers needed to scope a residential roofing project.
Pitch-adjusted area
Set pitch so the calculation accounts for sloped surface area, not only the flat footprint.
PDF measurement report
Save a documented report for estimating, records, or a contractor conversation.
Waste factor controls
Apply waste for cuts, overlaps, and unusable material when planning.
AI-assisted outlining
Let RoofV draft the boundary, then adjust individual points.
Address-based search
Enter a street address to center the map on the property.
Three simple steps

Measurement accuracy
Good imagery helps. Careful review matters more.
RoofV says traced measurements on high-resolution imagery are typically within a few percent of a tape measurement. That depends on the image, outline, scale, and pitch being correct.
!
Use online measurements as estimates—not substitutes for field verification.
Confirm the outline, pitch, overhangs, additions, and obscured edges on site before ordering materials, signing a contract, or submitting final pricing.
