Still climbing roofs just to get measurements for a bid?
There’s another way.

With EagleView property data inside RBS CRM, you can access roof details like squares, pitch and aerial imagery, so you can spend less time measuring and get to the estimate faster. Full measurement reports can also be ordered right from the CRM.

Less time measuring. More time bidding.
