The most cutting-edge innovations to come out of this summer you need to know about. 

The industry is always finding innovative technology that helps roofing contractors stand out by increasing their sustainability and improving efficiency. Here are the most cutting-edge technologies to come out of this summer! Keep reading to learn how to take advantage of these new tools.

Drone-based aerial intelligence technology 

Drones are becoming more and more popular among exterior contractors, including roofers. From documenting damage to aerial measurement updates, drone technology is an incredibly innovative and easy-to-use application that roofers — commercial and residential — are taking advantage of this summer. 

Drones with 4K UHD cameras allow roofing inspectors and other teams to capture detailed images and videos of roofing damage, as well as identify any kind of hazards or unique structural features that production crews should be aware of. Your roofing teams are also able to share your roofing drone footage with customers and provide them with visual examples of the work that is needed. As this piece of roofing technology becomes more advanced, it is very likely that your roofing business will find this to be a very useful tool in your projects. 

Roof safety technology 

Safety for roofers is always high on the list of priorities for business owners. Having proper protocols in place and routine review of plans can greatly reduce the risks of accidents, but they are not completely eliminated.  

Thankfully, advancements in roofing technology are helping keep roofers even more protected in a number of ways, including:  

  • Outlining hazardous areas using various forms of GPS and notifying crew members if they are approaching potential danger.  

  • Adding sensors into crew members’ safety vests that monitor their heart rate and body temperature, which can detect if someone is starting to overheat.  

  • Adding safety vests which also contain airbags that inflate around the neck and chest when a drop is detected with sensors. 

Energy-efficient roofing materials 

Using more energy-efficient methods and sustainable materials has become second nature to many consumers and businesses. This includes the roofing industry.  

There are a variety of environmentally friendly roofing materials on the market. From eco-friendly shingles to solar panels, roofing has been integral in saving energy and reducing mankind’s carbon footprint. By offering customers eco-friendly roofing options, you are able to increase your earning potential and save the planet at the same time. 

There are new kinds of tools and applications being developed and refined every day for roofing contractors. Because this industry is ever-changing, it’s important that you have a roofing software solution that can help you unify and manage all of your data and projects, discover how Jobba can improve your business plan.
