Trace and total
Square feet, linear feet, and stall counts — from imagery.
Draw around a lot and get the area. Trace a crack run and get the length. Tap stalls to count them. Every measurement saves to the job site, so the numbers are still there next season.
- Areas, runs, and counts in one tool
- Multiple shapes per measurement, summed automatically
- Saved to the property — reload and edit any time

Into the quote
Measurements become quantities with one tap.
A measured 28,400 sq ft becomes the quantity on your sealcoat line. Edit the measurement later and the linked line updates with it — the takeoff and the quote never drift apart.
- One tap from measurement to line item
- Linked lines update when the measurement changes
- Works in the units you bid: sq ft, linear ft, each
Sealcoat — full lot
28,400 sq ft × $0.19
Restripe stalls
42 stalls × $6.00
FAQ
Common questions
Is the measuring tool really free?
Yes — twice over. There's a free public version at makehay.io/parking-lot-measuring-tool that needs no account at all, and the full version built into MakeHay (saved measurements, quote linking, historical imagery) is part of the free CRM.
How accurate is satellite measurement?
Within a few percent on typical lots — accurate enough to bid sealcoat, striping, and mowing with confidence. For work where inches matter, measure on site; for winning the job without burning an afternoon driving, satellite is the tool.
Does it work for lawns and driveways, not just parking lots?
Yes. Areas are areas — lawns, beds, driveways, roofs from a plan view. Lawn care and pressure washing crews use it exactly the way striping crews do.
