Why Do Accurate Roof Measurements Matter?

  • Material Estimation: Precise measurements allow for better accuracies when calculating the amount of roofing materials needed, such as measuring the roof square footage to determine how many tiles are needed

  • Structural Integrity: Correct measurements ensure proper fitting of roofing materials 

  • Roof Pitch Calculator: Failing to account for the pitch, roof rise and slope can cause errors, affecting material calculations

Kyle Hargreaves, Partner, Graham and Sibbald Chartered Surveyors & Property Consultants

"PlanMaster is a fantastic piece of software that helps us estimate roof quantities quickly and easily, without the need for drones, tapes or laser distance measurers, which is priceless for a property surveying practice! It can help us in saving time and money arranging specialised access and visiting sites to undertake pre-tender measures which could take hours - or sometimes days - to complete.

I highly recommend it for budget estimates and headline quantities that can help inform clients quickly and effortlessly”
