Generate an Instant Estimate based on square area measurements in just a few clicks! For an overview of Instant Estimating, click here.

Instant Estimates do not require exact measurements and allow you to input an estimated square area value for an immediate quote. 

1. Create a Instant Estimate from scratch - based sole on your estimated squares. Once you confirm measurements via our ordering service, a DIY project or on site, you can recalculate your quote using the updated area measurements.
2. Using the measurements from your existing DIY project or completed Measurement Order, generate a per-square Instant Estimate

Create an Instant Estimate From Scratch

1. Click the green + Add New button in the bottom right corner of your projects screen.
2. Select Create a Project, input your address details and click Create in the bottom right.
3. Under the Estimates section in your project page, click the Instant Estimate option.
   • Select your roofing material from the New Roof Material drop down.
   • Input your estimated squares or copy over the value from the Measurements tab of your project.
   • Add an optional description or note.

   • Input your per square price.

     

4. Click Save, which will then generate your estimate. Tap on the gray ⋮ and select Edit Estimate to view a suggested itemized breakdown and price range.

   

Optional: Side-by-Side Comparison

You can create up to 5 different Instant Estimates to compare side-by-side, using different materials, per-square price points, or by modifying the material type within the estimate itself. Just click the + Add button in the bottom right of the estimates section and select Per-Square Estimate.
