Roofing technology is evolving rapidly, and technology is becoming a must-have tool. The demand for roofing technology to support advances in business management, sustainability, and material trends has increased alongside that growth.

Fremont, CA: Companies are taking advantage of new, cutting edge technology to be an advantage as they continue to increase the efficiency on the job site, as well as in the organizations through the better business management process. Success in commercial roofing demands skill, an understanding of the craft, and meaningful jobsite experience. There is nothing that can second the approach of a roofer familiar with the needed materials and techniques. The technology, however, could enhance the already-existing skills and make a roofer’s job more accessible than before. The innovative products available currently can help to prepare for the projects, streamline the work, and stay at the top of the business.

An Ariel View

[vendor_logo_first]While preparing for a job, having a clear sense of the property in question and its surroundings helps. Taking a look at the top view of the project before the beginning helps to prepare yourself and your team for the challenges that lie ahead. For instance, Google Earth images can be beneficial in early discussions with building owners or property managers. A top-view picture of a project can give an idea of what to expect from nearby buildings, overhanging trees, challenges to building access, or the existing roof itself.

Better Project Development

Computer-aided design (CAD) programs create a possibility to draw the result of a roofing project, making the plan and its details relatively easier for everyone involved to visualize. Additionally, computer-based bidding programs can make the process of estimation of the cost of a project seamless and keep the team organized.

Organized Management

The technology eliminates the need for personal notebooks and notes. Project management software like Dataforma makes photos, notes, and all the other important project-related documents accessible to anyone involved in the project with the help of an app on a smartphone or a tablet. With the introduction of this type of platform, employees can access records from anywhere keeping everyone on the same page, including property managers and building owners, who can see through the running records about what is going on in a particular roof.

Old or new, technology can be beneficial in a roofing project. While utilizing the latest and greatest in technological innovations, one has to ensure that it enhances an existing skilled, detail-oriented team, not just for looking good and impressing the clients with fancy equipment.
