💡 How to use: Measure your roof from the ground in feet, then draw the footprint on the grid. Each square = 2 ft.
💡 Tip: For simple gable roofs, draw a rectangle. For L-shapes or complex roofs, add more corners.
How to Use This Tool
- 1. Pick your grid scale. Choose how many feet each grid square represents. For typical homes, 2 ft/square works well. For large properties, use 5 or 10 ft/square.
- 2. Measure your roof from the ground. Walk around your house and measure each side with a tape measure or measuring wheel. Sketch the shape on paper first.
- 3. Click corners on the grid. Start at one corner and click each corner in order. The shape snaps to the grid for clean measurements.
- 4. Close the shape. After 3+ corners, click your starting point to close the polygon. Area calculates instantly.
- 5. Get the actual roof surface area. The drawn area is the footprint. Multiply by your pitch factor for true roof surface area.
