Going Digital- MRA Announces Metal Roofing Measurement & Design Tool

By Marco Industries. 

New technology will help homeowners make more informed decisions.  

Marco Weather Tite™ System provides solutions for both roofing contractors and homeowners. Now Marco has learned about a tool that will deliver similar benefits.  

The Metal Roofing Alliance (MRA) has announced the launch of the Metal Roofing Measurement & Design Tool, intended to help produce faster estimates remotely so that you, the homeowner, can make better-educated decisions about having metal roofing installed on your home. 

Developed by Renoworks Software Inc. (Renoworks), the new tool is ideal for anyone looking to streamline the roofing process. MRA’s official press release states: 

“Simply by entering a property address, the new solution leverages Renoworks' FastTrack feature-set and technology to transform pre-existing aerial measurement data and street-view images into interactive 3D models and realistic visualizations of the home. The resulting interactive project can then be designed with thousands of combinations of metal roofing products and colors, with all of the roof measurements needed to prepare an initial project estimate.” 

Benefits of the new tool include: 

• Enabling metal roofers to quickly obtain measurements and make initial estimates remotely, without the need to visit the home 

• Allowing homeowners to see the value of a metal roof and make better decisions by designing 3D models and realistic visualizations of their own home 

• Fostering better coordination and connection between homeowners and metal roofing professionals with a shared, online interactive visualization of the project
