Independent roof planning for East Grand Rapids
Measure the roof, see a planning range, no contact required. Request an inspection only if you want a written quote from the preferred roofer.
Instant roof estimate
Answer a few questions to get a preliminary price range.
Step 1
This tells us how to help you fastest.
Step 2
We'll measure it from satellite imagery — no need to get on a ladder.
Automatic roof measurement
Check the image for attached or detached garages, additions, and roof edges hidden by trees. If the property and measured area look reasonably complete, continue. Otherwise, draw the roof sections that should be included.
Trace each roof section, including attached garages or additions that the satellite measurement may have missed.
Select Draw roof section, then tap each roof corner.
Step 3
A few things satellite imagery can't see.
Step 4

Estimated Price Range
Decking and hidden damageSheathing condition is usually confirmed during tear-off.
Flashing and ventilationChimneys, walls, skylights, intake, and exhaust need an on-site scope.
Access and final quantitiesStaging, landscaping protection, and exact material quantities affect the written quote.
No contact information was required. This planning range is not a contractor proposal; an on-site inspection is needed to confirm hidden conditions and final scope.
From planning range to written quote
Your estimated planning range
An inspection confirms hidden conditions and final quantities.
Check every roof section, pitch, access point, and material quantity against the property.
Review decking, flashing, ventilation, existing layers, and signs of water intrusion.
Put products, quantities, allowances, exclusions, permits, and warranty terms in writing.
Optional. Your information is sent to one preferred local roofer and is not sold to multiple contractors.
How the estimate works
Google Solar building data supplies available roof area, segment and pitch information for the closest detected building.
Trees, detached garages and newer additions can produce an incomplete outline. Use the polygon tool when the displayed roof is not the whole project.
Material, waste, pitch, height, tear-off, penetrations and condition allowances build the range. Hidden conditions still require inspection.
Where satellite measurement needs help
Compare the detected roof with the property image. Pay special attention to attached garages, rear additions, covered porches and edges hidden by mature tree canopy.
Reviewed example: tree cover hid enough roof to move one test property from 1,919 to 2,465 square feet of roof surface.

Decking: the exact amount of damaged or unsuitable sheathing may not be visible until tear-off.
Flashing and ventilation: chimneys, wall intersections, skylights, intake and exhaust need an on-site scope.
Access and protection: driveways, landscaping, neighboring homes, steep planes and staging affect the work plan.
Materials worth comparing
Broad availability and relatively straightforward localized repair. Confirm the exact product, underlayment, flashing and ventilation system.
A heavier or more distinctive profile when the roof is central to the façade. Compare the street-level visual difference with the added cost.
A different panel, flashing and fabrication system. Ask about seam type, substrate, coating, penetrations and future repair.
