How to Order an EagleView Report From AccuLynx

Which part of the roofing sales process takes the longest time? For many contractors, the answer is estimating. Especially if you’re climbing on a roof to take measurements, it can be hard to get the accuracy you need, and it can eat up valuable time. In order to speed up the estimating process and improve accuracy, more and more contractors are taking advantage of aerial measurement reports to get the numbers they need.

To help contractors order measurements more easily, AccuLynx roofing software integrates with two of the leading aerial measurement providers, EagleView and GAF QuickMeasure. Here’s how you can use AccuLynx to order an EagleView report—and why it can benefit your business to order aerial measurements through AccuLynx.

Ordering an EagleView Report in AccuLynx

Ordering an EagleView report in AccuLynx is simple:

• Verify that the red map pin is on the correct location.
