When we’re clambering on a roof, or balancing on a tall ladder, it is difficult to take accurate measurements, or gain perspective. Until EagleView arrived, only birds had that vision. Nowadays, roofing and siding contractors have a bird’s eye view on properties too, and that makes a big difference.
A Bird’s Eye View on Properties for Insurance Assessors
It’s not just roofing and siding contractors that have the problem. Insurance assessors also need to gain an accurate view of roofs and walls when assessing damaged buildings. So what does EagleView do?
How EagleView Works in a Nut Shell
EagleView delivers aerial imagery, data analytics, and geographic-information-system (GIS) mapping services to its clients. In layman’s terms, this means the company can look down on a building from above, and report what it sees.
The company’s bird’s eye view on properties evolved gradually as it developed:
- EagleView began supplying aerial roof measurements in 2008 including size and area.
- In 2011, the company added a three-dimensional view and assessment for solar installers.
- By 2012, EagleView was also able to provide general aerial views of properties.
- In 2022, the company began using drones to measure vertical dimensions as well.
How a Bird’s Eye View on Properties Helps Us Estimate
An Overall Impression of a Roof
The first, introductory report provides a top-down image, showing pitch distribution and total roof area. This information provides accurate dimensions for eavestrough and soffit jobs.
A Wall Report for Siding Estimates
The wall report helps us quote quickly and accurately for siding installation, repair, and replacement. A low-altitude aerial view of a property provides high-resolution images. These include wall door and window diagrams, including three-dimensional images.
A Premium Report For Accurate Roof Jobs
When we need it, we can upgrade to a premium roof report, for accurate bills of quantity and precise material ordering. This information includes total roof area, roof sections, pitch diagrams, valleys, rakes, eaves, ridges and hips too.
A Bird’s Eye View on Properties Ensures Accurate Planning
Accurate data helps us prepare detailed quotes to eliminate wastage and unnecessary off-cuts. This puts us in a position to provide accurate prices that make provision for all known factors. Customers win with Valiant Exteriors because we are committed to ‘getting it right’ first time.
