Thank you for Subscribing to Construction Business Review Weekly Brief

In the connected world today, like in several other industries, roofers are also finding ample opportunities to invest innovation in their work.

FREMONT, CA: Roofers get to study to perfect their craft with the best techniques and determine which roofing product can complement their work under every circumstance. They also tend to build a strong customer base with the help of good old-fashioned networking, flyer distribution, as well as word-of-mouth. They try to make their work more efficient and operate their business smoother.

Aerial photographers are still on the race to refine their craft by providing pictures of the properties or buildings that are requested by the roofers and acquired as well, to use for estimates and measurements. Keeping in mind the requirement of cost of a pilot, clicking such pictures can be more expensive. On the other hand, aerial photographers highlight the place and quality of the images using only the human eye. Similarly, the fundamentals of composition and lighting help the workers to produce high-quality photos, better than any other manned options.

When it comes to aerial photography, one of the most known technologies of recent times is drones. Drones are the unmanned aerial devices that work to capture the imagination of the public, and the organizations take advantage of their abilities. In the roofing industry also the third-party service providers and individual roofing contractors have begun to make use of drones to record aerial imagery, along with relevant data to use in roofing projects. It allows saving hours on estimates and inspections without even climbing up and capturing the images and videos manually. But it is an added responsibility to adhere to the local laws regulating the flying of drones in the areas.

Irrespective of the picture source, the power of aerial photography is derived from the combination of software programs that are designed mainly for roofing professionals. The programs help the photos to get clubbed with other satellite imagery and property details as well in order to provide 3D models and suggestions for everything, starting from measurements to the amount of the required materials. Several companies offer the roofers with analysis and customizable 3D models, as well as low-flying airplanes when it comes to aerial photography to install in a software program, giving out roofing measurements.
