What an Xactimate estimate is
Xactimate is the estimating software most insurance carriers, adjusters and restoration contractors use to price repairs. An Xactimate estimate lists every repair as a line item with a quantity and a unit price from a regional price list. That structure is why carriers can review and compare estimates quickly.
What we write
- Roof estimates and siding and exterior estimates, with measurements we take from the exterior.
- Water damage and flood, fire and smoke, mold and packout estimates.
- Interior estimates from Matterport details or your room dimensions.
- Supplements when a carrier estimate leaves items out.
Exterior versus interior
We measure roofs, walls and gutters ourselves, so exterior estimates need little from you beyond the address and photos. Interior estimates need interior dimensions, which you can provide through Matterport or our interior room form.
Formats we deliver
Xactimate and Symbility. Read what an ESX file is if you are new to the format.

We cannot guarantee how a carrier will respond to an estimate or supplement. We write a complete, clearly documented scope from the information you provide, and we recommend you review every estimate before you submit it.
