Roof Measurement Software for Contractors

Roof measurement software lets roofing contractors measure any roof from satellite imagery — no ladder, no on-site visit. SquareCount measures roof area, pitch, ridges, valleys, and waste factor in about 60 seconds and generates a professional PDF report. The $79/month Contractor plan includes everything — unlimited measurements and reports, editable material lists for shingle, tile, and metal, valley & ridge takeoffs, a job cost estimator, shareable branded reports, and team members — and every new account starts with a free 7-day Contractor trial (no credit card), with a free tier of 3 measurements per month after that.
