Maybe, you’re a contractor and you went out to a home to you can provide a quote. You went there to measure a roof for metal or shingles but forgot to take a few critical measurements. You’re dreading driving back out there.

How To Measure A Roof Using Google Earth
It’s actually a simple process to get the ballpark square footage of a roof with Google Earth. Using Google is great for a rough estimate, but when you’re ready to order the materials you should take accurate field measurements of the job. In order to make things easy for you we have created a step by step guide and even created a video.
To begin, go to Google Earth and click to “Launch Earth.” Search for your home’s address and you’re ready to go!
Printing a Top View Of Roof With Google Earth
You should start measuring by printing out a top view of your home. To do this, simply line up your house and click on the top corner to print.
Be sure to print multiple angles and views. The more roofing details you provide, the more accurate your estimate will be. These additional angles will also show the supplier if there are any additional valleys, peaks, entryways, or window hangs that may be needed.
Begin Measuring Your Roof
Frame your home back to the top shot. NOTE: You’ll want to be directly above and zoomed in as much as possible.
Click the ruler icon on the left side of your screen.
Switch the unit of measurement to feet.
Click on a starting and stopping point, and you’ll get an estimated measure of distance.
Start logging in your measurements.
It’s always best to go outside and check a few measurements to make sure what you’re estimating on Google Earth is in the ballpark.
Using Your Sketch To Get A Metal Roofing Quote
When complete, you’ll have a general idea of the size of your roof.
Getting Accurate Roof Measurements For Your Home
Again, this process is good for general measurement estimates. Prior to ordering any material, it’s crucial that you hire a professional to do field measurements.
