The GAF e360 Visualizer and Estimator is an app that transforms smartphone photos of actual properties into customizable 3D models to facilitate the roof-buying process. With it, roofers can save time measuring property dimensions by hand and come up with accurate material estimates.
Since it was launched in 2016, the HOVER-powered app has helped residential and commercial roofing contractors, including Dior Construction, achieve greater close rates. It has given property owners a convenient way to visualize a vast array of shingle styles and colors before making a purchase decision.
Recently, GAF announced that it would continue to be the exclusive roofing brand to extend the app’s advanced visualization technology. In addition to this update, it also unveiled a range of new capabilities it will be rolling out soon.
What’s New:
-
Now – This feature will allow professionals to estimate the entire size of the roof in 30 minutes or less. Compared with the old-fashioned roof measurement method used by the industry, this can save labor time further, and help minimize the exposure of roofers to hazards.
-
Connect – Be it for residential roof replacement or commercial roof repair, this feature will let property owners take part in the process more actively. Specifically, it will allow them to take photos of the structure with the app prior to the meeting with the contractor.
-
The Multifamily Home – This capability aims to simplify the estimate process in multifamily residential properties. It will enable roofers to coordinate with the HOA better.
What’s in It for You
Most of GAF e360’s features are only accessible by GAF-certified contractors. Unless you hire a Master Elite® roofing installation company, like Dior Construction, there’s no way for you to enjoy the full extent of its benefits.
Moreover, the capabilities can be empowering for a property owner like you. Unlike other visualization tools, it’s the only one that can help you envision numerous design possibilities on a 3D rendering of your own property. In other words, you can try out GAF products before construction begins and narrow your options down effectively.
