What is SkyView?

First, we hope everyone had a fun and safe July 4th holiday.  The weather this weekend in Charlotte and the surrounding areas was superb.  With that said, we are going to spend this blog post mentioning some more of the technology we use when quoting roofs here at Ridgeline.

We use a lot of technology everyday to try to simplify our jobs and make things easier for our customers.  A lot of customers simply do not have the time to meet with contractors and we certainly understand that.  While it is not required, many people want to be there if you are going to be around there house.  Because of this we wanted to develop a system of doing roof quotes that would allow us to use satellite imagery and images taken from Cessna airplanes.  We found a few software programs that we were able to use that would allow us to do this.

We named this technology SkyView.  You can visit our website for this at: http://www.skyviewroofquote.com.  There you can see exactly what we see when we do this.  We are able to scale these images and using another piece of software we are able to measure your roof more accurate than if we actually pulled a tape on it.  This has allowed our estimates to be even more precise than before and has allowed us to offer roof quotes with absolutely no hassle at all.

We take pride in the work we do and the services we offer.  We feel like one of the thing that separates us from our competitors is the technology we use.  This technology makes our job easier, makes your job easier, and it improves our services even more.  Today, we are more connected than ever with our customers with our company on Facebook, Twitter, and Blogspot.  Through these services we are able to interact directly with our customers.  In addition to that, we are in the process of becoming an accredited business with the Better Business Bureau to further help our reputation in the Charlotte area.

Tomorrow we will take a look at our MyHome section of the website and the great features it allows us to offer our potential customers.

Welcome to the Blog

Welcome to the new Ridgeline Exteriors Inc. blog.  We have established this blog in the hopes to improve our visibility in the community.  Through this blog we hope to answer your questions and concerns about all things exterior on your house.

First, a little bit about our company.  We started in 2004 as a general contracting company.  Our focus was on building quality homes.  We spent time building homes around North Carolina as we built in strong markets such as Raleigh, Charlotte, and Union County.  While building these houses, and with the new home market declining, we saw an opportunity to begin a new business venture that had the potential to succeed.

After building numerous houses we grew more and more disgruntled with our hired subcontractors, specifically any of those dealing with the outside of our homes.  We saw an opportunity here and decided to create our own roofing company.  We immediately saw success in the roofing market and grew naturally into doing siding and gutters.  We found a strong clientèle that simply liked the idea that we would do what we said, would stand behind our workmanship, and would call people back immediately.  These principles are what still guide us today.

Today, we find our business surrounded by unique opportunities to expand.  We adapt each day to the changing world by using technology to improve our quality of work.  We continue to innovate.  With services like SkyView and MyHome we continue to explore new ideas and ways to help you, our consumers.  SkyView is technology that allows us to see your home from images taken by Cessna aircraft.  These images are then used to measure roofs accurately and without the hassle of bothering a homeowner.  We still love to come out and meet with homeowners when they want it.  We also know that when you are home, there's other things you want to do than meet a contractor.

MyHome is another innovation we have added to our company.  MyHome allows us to take a picture of your home before doing any work and show you what certain shingles and siding would look like.  We are able to change the colors and manufacturers to match exactly what you would purchase.  These innovations are what keep us one step ahead of the crowd.

This blog will be regularly maintained as we look to help residents connect with us in better ways.
