Roof Characteristics

Property Data

Roof material, shape, age, and geometry for a property, without the historical imagery

Overview

The full picture of a roof at one address: covering, shape, pitch and area, rooftop objects, current condition and remaining lifespan, a repair risk grade, and costed replacement and repair estimates. Building details and permit history come alongside. Most teams use it instead of buying historic aerial imagery, for a fraction of the cost.

What’s included

  • Roof features: size and area, shape, pitch, and primary roof covering
  • Rooftop objects: solar panels, chimneys, vents, skylights and satellites
  • Current condition, plus a repair risk grade, rating and description
  • Remaining lifespan and the year the roof was last updated
  • Replacement cost breakdown and a separate two-year repair cost breakdown
  • Potential issues and future damage potential
  • Building details and permit history for the same address

What teams use it for

  • Applying your own roof rules rather than a vendor grade

    Take raw material, shape, pitch, and age, then score it against your own guidelines. A cost-efficient way to run your own model without licensing the imagery underneath it.

  • Pre-filling roof fields on a quote or application

    Answer the roof questions from the record before the application is filled in, so covering type and replacement year come from data.

  • Checking a stated roof age against permit history

    Compare a stated roof age with the permits the county recorded, and underwrite to an age with documentation behind it.
