From Scan to Quote

The estimating workflow in four steps, all in one project.

  1. 01 · SCAN

    Walk the job once

    Scan rooms with an iPhone or iPad Pro at the bid visit, send the homeowner a guest scan link, or trace a blueprint or photo in the web editor.

  2. 02 · FLOOR PLAN

    Get the measured plan

    The scan becomes a floor plan with room areas, wall lengths, doors, windows, and ceiling heights. Fix anything that looks off before you price it.

  3. 03 · ESTIMATE

    Room by room, from your catalog

    Pick a room and add materials to its Walls, Floor, Ceiling, and Baseboards. Price one room or the whole plan.

  4. 04 · QUOTE

    A quote PDF, grouped by room

    Build the quote from the estimate with your branding, download the PDF, and send it to your client. Mark it sent, then accepted.

See How the Takeoff Math Works

Behind every estimate is the quantity math: waste, carpet rolls and seams, flooring cartons, paint gallons, wallpaper rolls, plus your catalog, markup rules, and wall drawings for the job file. The material takeoffs page walks through all of it.

What Estimators Get That a Spreadsheet Can't Give Them

Doors and windows come off

Wall quantities use net area. You can switch individual walls off and see each wall standing up with its openings taken out.

Fast across a whole house

Same as last room, recently used materials (on the laptop and the phone), Copy to other rooms, Next room without materials, and adding one material to several rooms at once.

Partial jobs are fine

Price one wall in one room, one room, or the whole plan. The estimate and the quote only include what you add.

Your catalog, your prices

Save products once with cost and sell price, and set markup rules by category, brand, supplier, or tag. Already use MeasureSquare? Send us your product export and we will load it.

Send the quote PDF the same day

The quote is a branded PDF built from the estimate. Revise makes a new version. A materials spreadsheet opens beside the estimate, and exports to CSV.

Fewer site trips per bid

Guest scanning lets a homeowner scan their own room with an iPhone Pro, so you can bid without driving out first. They install the free app; no account needed.

Measuring Exterior Work?

Estimating in SiteScope is for interior finishes. Outside, SiteScope measures: trace areas (with cutouts), lengths, and perimeters on the satellite map before the site visit, and keep site photos in the project. It does not produce exterior estimates or roofing reports. See roofing, paving, and landscaping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is SiteScope a construction estimating app?
For interior finish work, yes. It prices flooring, paint, wallcoverings, tile, and baseboard from a measured floor plan made in the same app (see floor plan app for contractors). It does not price framing, plumbing, electrical, or exterior work; add those as your own lines on the quote. For the quantity math behind each material, see material takeoffs.
Which plan includes estimating?
Free includes room-by-room estimating with up to 10 materials, plus scanning, floor plans, the web editor, and PDF reports. Pro adds unlimited materials, markup rules, bulk pricing, and quote PDFs, and you upgrade in the SiteScope app.
Which trades does SiteScope estimate for?
Interior finish trades: flooring (carpet, LVP, laminate, engineered wood, carpet tile), paint, wallpaper and wallcoverings, tile, and baseboards and trim, with trade-specific math for each. You can also add any catalog product by area or count and price it with your own cost and sell price.
How accurate are quantities from an iPhone scan?
Room-scale LiDAR scans typically land within a couple of centimeters over a normal room, which is well inside what finish estimating needs. You can check every wall in the plan and the 3D view before you price it.
Can I estimate without visiting the site?
Yes. Send a guest scan link so the client scans with their own iPhone Pro (they install the free SiteScope app, no account needed), or trace a blueprint or photo in the web editor. For exterior areas, SiteScope can measure square footage, lengths, and perimeters on the satellite map, but it does not build exterior estimates.
How do I send the estimate?
As a quote PDF with your branding, grouped by room, that you download and send. You mark it as sent, and as accepted when the customer says yes. You can also export the materials to CSV for your spreadsheet or a supplier order.
