Roofing
AI-powered roofing takeoff software
Roofing takeoffs combine the roof plan, roof details, and the roofing spec. PreCal-IQ pulls roof area, slopes, perimeter, and penetrations from the drawings and matches each to the membrane and flashing systems in the spec.
What's included
Every roofing item, accounted for
- Membrane roofing by square foot
- Insulation layers and tapered systems
- Flashing and counter-flashing by linear foot
- Roof penetrations (curbs, vents, pitch pans)
- Roof specialties (snow guards, walk pads, lightning protection)
Why teams switch
What manual roofing takeoffs cost you
Underestimating tapered insulation because the slope diagram is on a separate detail sheet
Missing flashing at parapet walls that only appear on enlarged details
