What an EagleView report includes
- Total roof area in squares (1 square = 100 sq ft).
- Pitch class per facet (4/12, 6/12, 8/12, etc.).
- Ridge linear feet for ridge cap calculation.
- Hip linear feet for hip shingle calculation.
- Valley linear feet for ice-and-water shield + valley underlayment.
- Eave linear feet for drip edge + starter strip.
- Rake linear feet for rake drip edge.
- Number of roof facets for install-labor estimation.
- Penetrations (chimneys, skylights, vents) inventory.
The geometry data appears in a printable PDF report + can integrate with Xactimate and roofing CRMs (AccuLynx, JobNimbus, Roofr).
Typical EagleView pricing
EagleView reports run $20-$40 per residential property at this writing. Volume pricing available for high-volume contractors. For jobs already won, the cost is reasonable. For prospecting cold addresses at scale, the per-report cost adds up fast — a 200-home prospecting list at $30/report = $6,000 before knowing which addresses will respond.
How Roof Launch's auto-measurement complements EagleView
Roof Launch's auto-measurement uses Google Solar API rooftop geometry + satellite imagery to estimate squares, pitch, ridges, valleys, and hips on every render. The auto-estimate is within 5-8% of EagleView for typical pitched residential roofs — accurate enough to mail a real price band on a postcard, but not the final number for material commit.
The modern roofing stack uses both:
- Roof Launch for prospecting + acquisition — free auto-measurement on every render. Mail postcards with price bands on real square counts.
- EagleView at material-order time — pull the report once a deposit is paid + contract signed. Use EagleView numbers for material commit + permit submission + Xactimate scope alignment.
This sequence saves prospecting EagleView costs while preserving final-design accuracy where it matters.
Other roof measurement services
EagleView is dominant but not the only option:
- Roofr — competitor with similar feature set.
- Hover — also offers 3D models for siding + paint markets.
- RoofSnap — value-tier option.
- GAF QuickMeasure — manufacturer-affiliated measurement service.
