Pinpoint accuracy and less waste – With EagleView Technology’s aerial roof measurements in Cleveland and Pittsburgh, Distinctive Metal Roofing receives digital assessments that ensure accurate material ordering, significantly reducing metal roof panel waste.

The Distinctive Metal Roofing advantage – The Distinctive Metal Roofing team uses advanced aerial imagery from EagleView to provide hassle-free, highly accurate estimates without needing to visit your property.

The Roofing Tech Revolution

Human roof measurements are often inaccurate which lead to over charging the homeowner. Adding a “buffer” to bump up the actual size of the roof to compensate for human error is common and the homeowner pays for it.

Aerial roof measurements are much more precise. By using high-resolution aerial imagery, you know that what you’re being charged for is based on accuracy, not guesswork.

In short: Our approach is fast, non-intrusive, and highly accurate.

Noting Issues, Minimizing Metal Waste, and Controlling Costs

These aren’t just photos — the imagery is measured, and it shapes how we plan your roof.
 

Metal roofing is one of the best long term investments you can make in your house  and one which can beautify and protect your home long term. But before we can install a roof, we need to know what we’re working with, and an aerial roof measurement in Cleveland, Ohio and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is the best approach. Aerial measurement helps us plan precisely by:

  • Helping avoid metal waste – No homeowner wants to pay for excessive wasted material. Most roofing waste is caused by inefficient panel layout decisions and inaccurate measurements, rather than bad installation. Aerial measurement helps ensure exact measurements are taken so material estimation will be sound and planning will be accurate.
  • Preventing over ordering – Once precise measurements are obtained from aerial data, Distinctive Metal Roofing  can determine the panel, flashing and trim needs required.
  • Offering a remote/non-intrusive approach – Everything will be simpler on your end and ours, as the imagery lets us make a digital assessment of your roof without requiring disruptions to your everyday activities.
