For Homeowners
How much does a new roof cost in Florida?
A new asphalt shingle roof in Florida typically costs between $12,000 and $28,000 for an average single-family home — roughly $450–$700 per square (100 sq ft) installed — with tile and metal running higher. The exact number depends on your roof's measured size, pitch, and complexity, which is why 9FR prices from a real aerial measurement of your specific address instead of a per-square-foot guess. Enter your address to see your measured GOOD/BETTER/BEST price in about a minute, free.
How do I pick a licensed roofer I can trust?
Verify three things before anyone touches your roof: an active state contractor license in your state, a current certificate of insurance (general liability plus workers' comp), and a written, measurement-based price. On the 9FR network map, every installer card already shows a checked license and current COI — the 9FR VERIFIED badge means both were confirmed before the company was listed — so you compare crews on merit, not on who knocked on your door first.
What is a roof measurement report?
A roof measurement report is a document built from aerial imagery that states your roof's exact geometry: total squares (1 square = 100 sq ft), pitch, ridges, hips, valleys, eaves, rakes, and a recommended waste factor. Contractors, insurers, and suppliers all price from these numbers. 9FR generates a full measurement report for any US address in seconds, so the price you see is based on your actual roof, not an estimate from the street.
How can a roof be priced instantly without someone coming to my house?
High-resolution aerial imagery already exists for nearly every address in the United States. 9FR measures your roof's true geometry from that imagery — area, pitch, edges, complexity — then applies current material and labor pricing for your region to produce GOOD, BETTER, and BEST tiers. A site visit only happens at installation, after you've already chosen your price and your installer.
Does it cost homeowners anything to use 9FR?
No. The measurement, the instant price, browsing the verified installer network, and reserving with price protection are all free for homeowners. 9FR is funded by the installer network and platform subscriptions — not by marking up your roof or selling your phone number as a lead.
For Installers
What does it cost a roofing company to join the 9FR network?
Joining the network is free: a verified listing on the national map in every state you're licensed, routed homeowner demand, and access to group material purchasing. Optional platform seats — lead map, instant measurements, Glass live video, Tom AI, cadences — are priced per role, from $29/month for crew seats to $499/month for owners, with a $999/month team bundle. Apply in about three minutes.
What is the 9FR buying group?
The buying group aggregates material purchasing volume across every member company and negotiates supplier pricing as one national account. Individual companies get leverage normally reserved for nine-figure operations — on shingles, underlayment, and accessories — without giving up ownership or independence. Included free with network membership.
For Insurance Pros
What is an Xactimate-ready scope pack?
A measured claim document whose line-item quantities — field shingles, ridge cap, starter, drip edge, underlayment, waste — are derived from a real aerial measurement and formatted for import into your own licensed Xactimate seat. AI-A-MATE produces one from just the loss address in minutes, for $25 per scope. (AI-A-MATE is not affiliated with Xactware and does not generate Xactimate estimates; it prepares measured data that imports into yours.)
