The incredibly digitized roofing industry

Three years ago, I wrote about how the roofing industry has evolved with technology and material science. 

My colleague Brian Sommer told me he was impressed quotes he got for repairing roof damage precisely estimated the area of his roof using EagleView technology.

Jeff Frick of SiliconAngle talks about how drones are changing the industry. He interviews David Lyman, CEO of  BetterView

“Before incorporating drone technology, BetterView sent inspectors out with ladders to assess roofs for risk potential — a process that presented its own set of hazards. Safety risks and expenses aside, these inspections still proved ineffective in their ability to deliver quality information.”
