Dudes GoldSpeed pickThe fastest single-family report anyone publishes a guarantee on. Speed to bid is where QuickMeasure runs away with it, and flat no-subscription pricing keeps cost per job strong. It gives back points on insurance-side readiness (a report, not an ESX-first product) and on scope (roof-only), which is why it wins the speed lane and not the whole board.
Under an hour is legitimately impressive and the price is right. For me it's a retail-bid tool: on the claim side I need the ESX and the PDF exhibit, and QuickMeasure is a report with a BOM. Great for what it is.
Fastest thing on the list, no subscription, and the BOM means I can price materials on the spot. If I'm doing a same-visit bid on a normal house, this is what I want in my hand. Roof-only is the catch; the minute siding is involved I need something else.
Where it shines
- Under an hour on single-family, on a published guarantee
- $18 to $20 per parcel, no subscription, no minimums
- Includes a bill of materials and a 3D view with the report
- Done-for-you: order, receive, bid
- Strong fit for fast single-family retail bids
Good to know
- Roof-only: no wall or siding measurements
- A report and BOM, not an ESX-first insurance product
- Fit is strongest for GAF-aligned crews; brand-neutral shops may weigh that
- Speed guarantee is for single-family; complex or commercial roofs are a different conversation
What GAF QuickMeasure actually is
GAF QuickMeasure is a fast, flat-priced roof measurement report from a roofing manufacturer. Order by parcel, get a report with measurements, a bill of materials, and a 3D view back in under an hour on single-family, guaranteed. $18 to $20 per parcel, no subscription.
It is built for the contractor who needs a number now, and it is honest about its scope: roof only.
Cost per job (30%)
$18 to $20 per parcel with no subscription and no minimum is a clean, budgetable number, and the included BOM saves a step on material pricing. On cost alone it sits right with the flat-priced field.
Insurance-side readiness (25%)
This is where it gives back points. QuickMeasure's published product is a report and BOM; in our read it is not positioned around an ESX for Xactimate® or a claim-file exhibit. Restoration shops will want an ESX-first tool for the claim side. It scores as a retail speed tool, which is what it is.
Speed to bid (20%)
Under an hour on a single-family roof, on a published guarantee. Nothing else on our board publishes a faster promise. For a same-visit retail bid this is the whole reason to buy it, and it earns the top speed subscore by a distance.
DIY vs done-for-you (15%)
Done-for-you. Order the parcel, get the report. Nobody climbs, nobody draws.
Corrections and support (10%)
Support and corrections run through GAF's business-services channel. Check the current terms on the QuickMeasure page for the correction policy at time of order.
Who should buy it
Retail crews that bid single-family roofs and want the number in the driveway. Shops that hate subscriptions. GAF-aligned contractors who want the BOM to line up with what they install.
Skip it when siding is on the ticket (roof-only) or when the job is an insurance claim that needs an ESX and a PDF exhibit.

Real-world scenarios
QuickMeasure. Under an hour, BOM included, no plan. This is the exact job.
Roof-only, so no. HOVER for the full exterior, or a wall report from an ESX-first provider.
Wrong tool. You need the ESX and the PDF exhibit; QuickMeasure gives you a report and BOM.
The tool still works; the BOM just maps to GAF products. Weigh whether that matters for your material pricing.
