About MeasureSquare
MeasureSquare is the flooring industry's best-known takeoff and estimating specialist — software built around the one calculation that decides whether a flooring job is profitable: how much material the room actually needs once you account for seams, pattern match, dye lots, and waste factor. Estimators measure with a laser meter, lay out the floor plan, and the engine computes material and labor for carpet, vinyl, roll goods, tile, and hardwood. It is used by everything from independent installers to national brands like Daltile and Sherwin-Williams.
The product is sold by edition and platform rather than as one all-in-one subscription. The Mobile app for iPad/iPhone starts at $49/user/month for measuring and estimating in the field; the Multi-family editions ($79 iPad, $149 Windows) target high-volume apartment and property work; and the Commercial Windows edition ($179/user/month) handles the largest takeoffs. Annual billing is about 20% cheaper.
The trade-off is scope. MeasureSquare is deliberately a takeoff-and-estimating tool, not a dealer ERP — it does not run your POS, inventory, or accounting. Larger dealers typically pair it with (or feed its estimates into) a business system like RFMS, QFloors, or RollMaster. If your bottleneck is fast, accurate measurement and material calculation, MeasureSquare is the category benchmark; if you need one platform to run the whole store, look at the flooring ERPs instead.
Pricing
| Tier | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile (iPad/iPhone) | $49/mo | Entry tier |
| Multi-family (iPad) | $79/mo | |
| Multi-family (Windows) | $149/mo | |
| Commercial (Windows) | $179/mo | Top tier |
Per-user, per-platform: Mobile iPad/iPhone $49/user/mo; Multi-family iPad $79/user/mo; Multi-family Windows $149/user/mo; Commercial Windows $179/user/mo. ~20% off when billed annually. Used by large dealers and brands including Daltile and Sherwin-Williams.
MeasureSquare starts at $49/mo on the Mobile (iPad/iPhone) tier and scales to $179/mo on Commercial (Windows). The Mobile (iPad/iPhone) → Multi-family (iPad) → Multi-family (Windows) → Commercial (Windows) ladder places it in the budget-friendly entry tier segment of the FSM market. At this price point you're getting core scheduling, invoicing, and a mobile app — but expect to upgrade once you need advanced features like dispatch optimization, automated reminders, or recurring-service contracts. No public free trial — demo required to evaluate.

Key features
Integrations
Pros
- + Best-known flooring takeoff engine
MeasureSquare is purpose-built for flooring measurement — laser-meter capture, floor-plan layout, and material/waste calculation for carpet, vinyl, roll goods, tile, and hardwood. That domain depth is why brands like Daltile and Sherwin-Williams use it.
- + Accurate material and waste calculation
The estimating engine accounts for seams, pattern repeat, and waste factor — the variables that quietly erode flooring margin when estimated by hand. Getting material quantity right on the quote protects profit on the install.
- + Mobile, in-field measuring
The iPad/iPhone app lets estimators measure and quote on-site, so the homeowner or GC gets a number while the estimator is still standing in the room — speeding the sale.
- + Strong user rating
A 4.6/5 Capterra rating across a large flooring user base signals real satisfaction with the core measuring-and-estimating workflow.
- + Scales from installer to enterprise
Editions span a solo installer on the $49 mobile app up to commercial estimators on the $179 Windows edition, so the same tool grows with the business.
Cons
- − Priced per user and per platform
Seats are billed per user, and the iPad and Windows editions are separate products at different prices. A shop that wants mobile measuring plus desktop commercial takeoff pays for both, and costs climb with team size.
- − Estimating only — not an ERP
MeasureSquare does takeoff and estimating, not POS, inventory, scheduling, or accounting. Dealers still need a separate business system, so it is one piece of the stack rather than the whole thing.
- − Edition sprawl can confuse buyers
Mobile vs Multi-family vs Commercial, on iPad vs Windows, with different prices, makes it harder to know exactly which edition you need without a conversation.
- − Learning curve on advanced takeoff
Precise commercial takeoff with seam diagrams and pattern logic has a learning curve; getting full value takes time configuring how your shop measures and prices.
- − Flooring-specific
It is built for flooring and is not a general field-service or construction tool, so it is only relevant if flooring is your business.
Implementation timeline
1–3 weeks for a small team
Decide which edition(s) you need before buying — Mobile (iPad/iPhone) for in-field measuring, Multi-family for apartment/property volume, or Commercial (Windows) for the largest takeoffs — since they are priced separately and a shop may want more than one. Setup centers on configuring your material catalog, labor rates, and waste factors so estimates reflect how your shop actually prices. Train estimators on the laser-meter capture and floor-plan layout workflow, and decide how estimates flow into your POS/ERP (RFMS, QFloors, RollMaster) or accounting (QuickBooks). Because it is per-user, give seats to the estimators and salespeople who measure and quote.

Frequently asked questions
How much does MeasureSquare cost?
It is priced per user and per platform: the Mobile iPad/iPhone app is $49/user/month, Multi-family is $79 (iPad) or $149 (Windows), and the Commercial Windows edition is $179/user/month. Annual billing saves about 20%. A shop that wants both mobile measuring and desktop commercial takeoff pays for both editions.
Is MeasureSquare a full flooring business system?
No. It is a takeoff-and-estimating specialist, not a dealer ERP — it does not run POS, inventory, scheduling, or accounting. Most dealers pair it with a business system like RFMS, QFloors, or RollMaster and use MeasureSquare for the measurement and estimate.
What flooring types does it estimate?
Carpet, vinyl and roll goods, tile, and hardwood, with material and waste calculation that accounts for seams, pattern repeat, and waste factor — the variables that determine how much material a job actually consumes.
Who uses MeasureSquare?
Everyone from solo installers on the mobile app to national brands. Daltile and Sherwin-Williams are among the large organizations that use it, which is a strong signal of its standing as the flooring takeoff standard.
MeasureSquare vs a flooring ERP like RFMS?
They solve different problems. MeasureSquare is the measuring-and-estimating engine; RFMS (and QFloors, RollMaster) are full dealer ERPs that run POS, inventory, and accounting. Many dealers use both — MeasureSquare to build the estimate and the ERP to run the store. Choose MeasureSquare alone if your bottleneck is takeoff accuracy.
