How do we really know the size of your roof??  That is a GREAT question!!

3-D diagram from EagleView

For simple roofs, Carolina Shingle relies on accurate manual measurements to figure out just how much material we will need to get the job done.  However, if a roof is more complex, we rely on EagleView Technologies to help us out.  Once a Homeowner has signed up with Carolina Shingle to get their roof approved, we order what is called an EagleView report.

EagleView reports take various aerial images of the house, available through multiple resources, and compose them to formulate a report that calculates the area and pitches of the roof, and creates a 3-D diagram.

This report helps Carolina Shingle ensure that we have enough materials on the job site on the day of installation so that our crews are not spending time waiting around for additional materials to be delivered.

In some unfortunate cases, a premium EagleView report is not available.  There can be many reasons this can happen.  For instance, there may be large trees that cover a portion of the roof, and the aerial photos are not able to provide accurate data for interpretation.  In this case, Carolina Shingle will, again, rely on manual measurements.
