What a Roof Measurement Report Contains and Why You Need One

A roof measurement report is a document that lists every dimension of a roof. It includes all planes, slopes, ridges, valleys, hips, eaves, and openings. Contractors and insurance adjusters use these reports to write accurate estimates without climbing onto the roof.

Plane by plane breakdown

Each roof plane is measured individually. The report shows the square footage, pitch, and linear footage for every edge. This lets you calculate material quantities and labor costs for each section of the roof.

Openings and penetrations

All roof openings are documented. Chimneys, skylights, vents, pipes, and dormers are listed with their dimensions and locations. This helps you account for flashing, counterflashing, and proper material deductions.

Slope and pitch data

Every plane includes its slope expressed as a ratio. This is critical for selecting the right underlayment, shingle type, and fastening schedule. It also affects labor pricing.

Linear measurements for trim and accessories

Ridge, hip, valley, rake, and eave lengths are provided. These numbers are used to order ridge vent, hip and ridge shingles, drip edge, and gutter aprons.

Straight into the estimate

Reports are delivered as ESX files for Xactimate® and XactAnalysis®, plus XML and PDF. The ESX file imports directly into your estimating software.

Ordering and delivery

You order a roof measurement report using only the property address. Reports are typically delivered the same day. There is no need to schedule a site visit or send a crew to the property.
