The Internet has had an incredible influence on the way architects design and contractors put up buildings and now there’s a new development– an online roofing application where building professionals can use their iPads to plan metal roofing projects and order samples and metal roofing materials. 
The online mobile Internet application known as iRoofing is now available from Englert and can be used on mobile devices like the iPad and the iPhone. Contractors and architects can remotely order metal roofing plans or use a sophisticated yet simple-to-use roof visualizer that lets them photograph any structure with their mobile device and in seconds add an Englert metal roof with a wide choice of roofing profiles and colors. In addition the app offers a comprehensive photo gallery that features roofing projects grouped by color and by profile. Brochures and catalogs can easily be accessed within the iRoofing app as well making the app an invaluable resource for design professionals so they can review product brochures and share them with their clients with the swipe of a finger.
Contractors can also use iRoofing to order material or call up technical information including building approval forms or an installation guide. And iRoofing serves as an effective sales tool, allowing them to prepare information faster for prospects to close deals faster than competitors. It’s a great way for customers to instantly see what their home or project will look like with a standing seam metal roof.
Best of all, the versatile app includes a host of other building materials that can be accessed to assist in designing, specifying and pricing out a project.
