Residential Roofing Estimating Process
Gone are the days for companies that still rely on climbing ladders and taking measurement manual by measuring tapes for residential estimation. This era is for techniques like that of eagle view and aerial-measurements that let you accurately measure a roof, saving time and money, even before materials are ordered.
The Contractors just tell SkyRoofMeasure the property’s address online through their website. The technicians pull high-resolution images for measurements and detailed reports that show details like length, pitch, area, and even more. With the mobile app, you can work with their interactive photo editor tool to mark areas of roof damage and other necessary details. You can combine multiple reports online with the aerial measurement reports.
Besides the aerial view, drone camera technology has even taken the roof measurement and estimation to the next level. You never have to ascend that ladder again, instead, a roof measuring drone camera and estimating software that you can carry in a hand-held tablet eliminates the need to climb onto the roof.
With more precise estimation and lower liability costs, you can seal more deals and generate more leads with improved safety and efficiency.
