AI for commercial roofing contractors, tested on roofs your team already inspected.

A commercial roofer's paperwork starts on the roof. Service crews walk TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, built-up and metal roofs, write up what they find, and someone in the office turns that into a proposal for a property manager or facility director. On new work and reroofs, the spec's roofing section, such as 07 54 23 for TPO, 07 54 19 for PVC or 07 53 23 for EPDM, names a manufacturer's warranty the owner expects at the end.

Repair proposals make the better first test because inspections arrive on a calendar. NRCA recommends inspecting and maintaining a roof twice a year, usually in spring and fall, and again after major storms, and Elevate asks for at least one assessment a year by the licensed applicator that installed its roof. A service department working for property managers builds up a stack of inspection reports every season. Each one that found a problem ended in a proposal your service manager priced, and that proposal is the answer key.

Warranty paperwork comes second because every manufacturer runs its own program and only its approved installers can use it. Carlisle warrants roofs installed by a Carlisle Authorized Roofing Applicator, Elevate, the former Firestone line, works through licensed applicators and a PIN Site, and Johns Manville issues guarantees through its Peak Advantage contractor program. Each asks for different documents at different points in a job, which suits a second test on jobs you already finished.

Neither test depends on your software. Inspection reports may come out of a roof asset tool such as RoofLogic, a job platform such as AccuLynx, or a tablet form your inspectors fill in, and pricing may sit in a spreadsheet your service manager keeps. The proof of concept works from copies and exports, and it never logs in to any of them or to a manufacturer's portal.
