PerMeter
$9.99 AUD/month · 7-day free trialMeasure it. Price it. Bill it. Quote per-metre and per-square-metre work straight from the ServiceM8 job card.
Trace the site on high-resolution aerial imagery, link each zone to your ServiceM8 materials, and push priced line items — with a note and a site markup depicting the area serviced — back to the job in one tap. Built for turf, fencing, concreting, line marking, mowing and every other trade that quotes by the metre.
See It in Action
A quick walkthrough of PerMeter — opening from a job, tracing a zone on the aerial imagery, linking materials, and pushing the priced line items back to ServiceM8 with a site markup depicting the area serviced.
- Opens straight from the ServiceM8 job card
- Live area (m²) / distance (m) as you draw
- Materials linked, quantities auto-filled, dollar total live
- One tap: line items + note + site markup (depicting the area serviced) pushed back to the job
Draw Zones in Seconds
Trace the area you’re quoting on high-resolution aerial imagery of the site. PerMeter calculates areas in m² and distances in m live as you draw — no separate wheel, no walking the site with a tape.
- Live area (m²) and distance (m) as you place nodes
- High-resolution aerial imagery — not just a road map
- Drag nodes to fine-tune the shape at any point
- Corner snapping keeps edges tidy against fences, kerbs, buildings
Price It on the Spot
Link each zone to a ServiceM8 material or bundle and PerMeter fills the quantity for you — with a one-tap round-up and a live dollar total as you draw. Star your regulars so the ones you use every day are always at the top.
- Quantities auto-fill from the zone’s measurement (m or m²)
- One-tap round-up if you always order in whole pallets, rolls or boxes
- Live dollar total updates as zones are added and edited
- Starred favourite materials for the ones you quote all the time
- Works with your existing ServiceM8 materials and bundles — no separate catalogue
One Tap to the Job
Hit Add to Job and PerMeter writes billable line items straight to the ServiceM8 job, along with a clean summary note and a site markup depicting the area serviced — the aerial view with your zones outlined and labelled — attached to the job’s diary.
- Billable line items pushed straight to the job’s materials
- Clean summary note describing what was measured
- Site markup on aerial imagery, depicting exactly which area was serviced — zone callouts, scale bar, north arrow
- Doubles as a client-friendly record of what you’re quoting or delivering
- Your branding on the markup — ready to email straight from the job
Built for the Field
PerMeter is designed to be usable one-handed on the truck or in front of a client. Crosshair placing on your phone, corner snapping so nodes land where they should, and drag-to-adjust for the inevitable “a bit more that way” tweak.
- Crosshair placing — tap-and-hold to drop a node exactly where you want it
- Corner snapping when nodes get close to each other or the site boundary
- Drag any node to move it — measurements re-flow live
- Works on desktop and in the ServiceM8 mobile app
Pick Up Where You Left Off
Measurements save with the job in ServiceM8, so you can trace the front yard now, add the back yard next week, and duplicate a zone for the third block down the street — without re-drawing a thing.
- Measurements saved on the ServiceM8 job — reopen and edit anytime
- One-tap zone duplication when the next quote looks a lot like the last
- Add zones, edit prices, re-push line items — no re-work
- Fast for regulars: your starred materials + a duplicated zone gets a repeat quote out in under a minute
Who It’s For
Any trade that quotes by the metre or square metre. PerMeter is faster than a measuring wheel, cleaner than a photo of a scribbled sketch, and produces something you can actually send to a client.

- Fencing — perimeter x panel + posts
- Concreting — slab area x rate, path length x width
- Line marking — line-metres per colour
