FAQ
The best roof measurement software helps contractors capture accurate property data, reduce manual measurements, and move seamlessly into estimating and proposals. Hover combines detailed roof measurements with a complete 3D property model, giving contractors one platform to measure roofs, create estimates, present proposals, and manage projects from a single property record.
Unlike aerial-only measurement tools, Hover captures property details that overhead imagery can miss while producing roof measurements you can use throughout the sales and production process. Trusted by more than 300,000 construction and insurance professionals, Hover helps teams work faster with greater confidence.
The Hover Free Trial is a limited-time introductory offer to our roofing measurement app for first-time customers only. Includes 3 free scans, with up to 1 blueprint upload, and gives you access to Hover Measurements, Design, Estimates, and Proposals.
Hover Measurements create detailed, visual measurements that help contractors plan jobs accurately, reduce waste and errors, and keep projects moving from scope to handoff.
You can start from a scan or from an existing 3D Design view in our roofing measurement app, then transition into Measurements to view and pull the exact dimensions you need for planning and estimating.
Hover provides a highly detailed dataset for roof and siding, often with many individual measurements per property. You can also pull custom measurements when you need something specific.
Most properties can be captured in just a few minutes using Hover's guided smartphone photo workflow. After processing, your roof measurements are typically available shortly afterward so your team can move quickly into estimating and proposal creation.
For larger or more complex projects, processing times may vary depending on the property and capture method.
Yes. Hover includes a “measure” function that lets you draw line segments and pull custom measurements so you can get exactly what you need for your workflow.

Yes. With our roof measurement software, you can download your work into an organized PDF that’s easy to share with teammates and homeowners for clearer handoffs and fewer back-and-forth questions.
Yes. You can convert your 3D design and measurements into an estimate in just a few clicks—helping you move from scope to pricing faster and with fewer manual steps.
Hover does more than generate roof measurements. Once your property has been captured, you can use the same property record to build estimates, create professional proposals, and present projects using interactive 3D visuals.
Keeping measurements, estimates, and proposals connected in one workflow helps reduce duplicate work, improve accuracy, and give homeowners greater confidence during the sales process.
Hover helps roofing and restoration professionals document properties with accurate measurements and detailed 3D visuals that support inspection, estimating, and claims workflows.
By creating a standardized property record, contractors and insurance professionals can work from the same project data, helping streamline communication, reduce repeat site visits, and move projects from inspection to repair more efficiently.
