How-to estimate

  1. Measure usable roof area in square feet, not estimated pitch area.
  2. Choose method and moss condition as close to inspection notes.
  3. Decide whether gutter cleaning is part of your scope.
  4. Select your state bucket and review the high/low range.
  5. Use the result as a planning range and get local quotes.

How to estimate accurately

Use true rough area over visible plan area. If measurements vary, set an average range manually and compare low/mid/high results.

Costs and what can change the result

Roof access, roof condition, cleaning method, and city permit rules can shift final quote amounts materially.
