Instant access to complete roof, siding, gutter, paint, concrete, insulation and blueprint measurements; project retail pricing; material lists; plus municipality contact information and tax rates; building codes; permits; zoning; weather history; and property-financial insights in one open API.

Scope Technologies, the data-driven leader in aerial property measurements and construction intelligence, today announced the release of Scope API 2.0, a transformative upgrade that delivers more property measurement and property intelligence data than any other open API in the industry. 

A new standard for property intelligence

Building on its first-generation API, which allowed integrated partners to access RoofScope® and RoofScopeX® measurement data, Scope API 2.0 expands far beyond individual roof reports. The enhanced platform now allows partners to consume metadata and complete measurement datasets from the company's entire suite of products, including RoofScope®, RoofScopeX®, RoofScope+®, GutterScope®, SidingScope®, PaintScope®, ConcreteScope®, InsulationScope® and BlueprintScope®.

This breakthrough gives software developers, CRMs and construction technology platforms unprecedented access to complete property exterior data, enabling new AI-powered workflows, smarter automation and fully integrated contractor experiences.

"We're proud to be first to market with property intelligence that covers the entire structure," said Jerod Raisch, CEO of Scope Technologies. "As AI accelerates across construction, Scope API 2.0 places our partners at the forefront, empowering them to scale smarter while giving contractors more choice, speed and precision than ever before."

More than measurements — Real property intelligence

In addition to rich measurement data, Scope API 2.0 delivers access to ProData™, Scope's advanced property-intelligence layer that includes verified information such as building codes, permit histories, municipality and zoning data, weather patterns and property-financial insights.

This expansion aligns with Scope's ProDocs™ ecosystem, which introduced SmartQuote™ and SmartPO™ earlier in 2025 — technologies that automatically generate client-ready quotes and material purchase orders within three hours and deliver with its measurement report. Combined with Scope API 2.0, integrated partners can now power complete job-lifecycle automation from lead to material order.

"We've always been a data company with a mission to help contractors save time and increase profit," Raisch added. "API 2.0 allows every Scope client, and our partners' clients to tap into that same intelligence inside their own systems. It's about giving the industry open access to better data, and in turn, better results."

A partner-first ecosystem

Scope Technologies is currently working with its integrated partners to onboard the enhanced API and prepare for the launch of new capabilities throughout Q1 2026. Ten major platform integrations are already scheduled for release in the first quarter, each designed to extend Scope's data and automation stack deeper into the field-service, insurance and distribution ecosystems.

"Scope API 2.0 isn't just an upgrade, it's a foundation for the next generation of construction technology," Raisch said. "From CRMs to supplier networks, we're opening the door for innovation across every channel."

Data-driven tools are redefining how contractors compete with operational efficiency and stronger profits. 

The roofing industry is no longer driven by craftmanship alone. Today’s highest-performing contractors are defined by how well they manage information, mitigate costs and adapt to the evolving needs of consumers. To be competitive in a crowded market, accurate and timely data is key to securing a profitable business.  

RoofScope® is helping contractors act on insights by putting actionable data in their hands. Their slogan, “Bigger Data, Bigger Profits,” is supported by tools that support contractors at every level, from independent operators to large enterprises, to standardize their processes and measure performance. The result is consistent, data-driven growth. 

The new standard: Winning before you meet the client 

The biggest revenue opportunity isn't lead acquisition; it's converting the lead you already have with surgical precision. Here is the data-first approach that guarantees success: 

Step 1: The 3-hour advantage 

Stop the clock! When a prospect comes in, you need intelligence now. 

• Action: Immediately order a full measurement report and engage SmartQuote. 
• Result: Within three hours, you will have the measurement report, a customized SmartQuote and the ProData Property Intelligence Report. Step one is complete. You have already won the data war. 
• The necessity of speed: "In today's market, the first contractor who delivers a professional, detailed quote often wins the deal. Speed isn’t just a nice-to-have; it's a non-negotiable sales advantage. Our tools are built to eliminate the lag time,” said Jerod Raisch, CEO of Scope Technologies. 

Step 2: Intelligent lead qualification and dispatch 

Use your new data to ensure the right person gets the right opportunity at the right time. 

• Speed-to-lead: Schedule your appointment as close to the time of lead acquisition as possible. While same-day appointments aren't always feasible, aim for next-day service at a minimum. 
• Optimal dispatch: Use the measurement report's location and size data to dispatch leads. Larger opportunities should go to your strongest closers; smaller, local leads should go to the nearest available salesperson to optimize speed-to-lead. 

Step 3: Data-driven qualification (The ProData deep dive) 

Use the ProData Report to transform your salesperson from a simple estimator into an informed authority on the property. 

• Architectural fit: Review the property and neighborhood demographics. What kind of roof system does this neighborhood support, both by architectural design and the value of the home? This prepares you to quote the correct system and material grade from the start. 
• Code compliance: Review the municipality code information and the property's last roof permit date. This allows you to set yourself up as the authority when meeting the homeowner, referencing local compliance immediately. 
• Risk & value: Use the report to reference recent weather events and coincide with them with the roof's inspection details. Also, review the current property value and loan-to-equity data so you are prepared to discuss financing options with confidence. This data allows you to reference why you built the perfect roof system for their home and budget. 

Step 4: The profitable final review 

Now, open your SmartQuote in ProDocs and spend five minutes confirming the details based on the intelligence you just gathered. 

Every roofing business should have a known gross margin built into every quote. The great thing about ProDocs is that you have access to unlimited templates. You can create specific templates based on product type, projected profit margins or system selling. 

• Final check: Confirm the sales tax is correctly set up, you are quoting the ideal system and financing options are in place to present a true one-call close. 
• Confidence is key: If your default SmartQuote isn't the perfect scenario for your prospect's needs at the time, simply select the appropriate template (e.g., "High-margin architectural shingle") and confirm financing. Within 30 seconds, you’ll have a prospect-ready quote dialed in for success. 
• The future is accountability: "The market has zero tolerance for pricing errors. By empowering the pro to control their gross margin on every SmartQuote, we’re giving them the algorithm for their own profitability. Accountability is our algorithm, and that leads to guaranteed ROI,” shared Jerod Raisch, CEO of Scope Technologies. 

Ready to win 2026? 

As we manifest into the success of 2026, you can see that every opportunity is all about the data, from the very first contact with your prospective customer. 

You have the data when you have a Scope Technologies Advantage Plan in your toolbelt. Remember, all this measurement and property intelligence data is included in your small monthly investment, with every dollar invested directly offsetting the cost of your measurement reports. 

Don’t go into 2026 without the right data tools. Count on Scope Technologies to deliver “Better Data & Bigger Profits!”

Share these tips with your clients so they are prepared to take the necessary steps to protect their roof this fall and winter. 

With fall just around the corner, temperatures will drop and weather will become harsher, leaving your roof more vulnerable to seasonal wear. Preparing your roof for these changes in weather is a smart way to protect your home from potential damage, including leaks, structural issues and costly repairs. Our team at RoofScope®, powered by Scope Technologies, put together this guide to help you winter-proof your roof.  

Why it’s important to prepare your roof for fall and winter 

Your roof serves as your home’s primary defense against harsh weather. From falling leaves and clogged gutters to heavy snow and ice dams, the colder months can put a significant strain on your roof. Regular maintenance not only prevents damage but also helps extend the lifespan of your roof, saving you money over time. 

Your fall and winter roof preparation checklist 

1 - Inspect your roof 

• Start by examining the surface of your roof, along with the flashing and gutters. 
• Watch for damaged, curled or missing shingles that may need replacement. 
• Pay attention to areas around vents, chimneys and skylights for any signs of wear or damage. 

2 - Clean gutters and downspouts 

• Clear out leaves, twigs and debris to keep water flowing properly. 
• Prevent ice dams, which can lead to leaks and roof damage, by maintaining clean gutters. 
• Consider adding gutter guards to reduce future cleaning needs. 

3 - Trim nearby trees 

• Prune back branches that hang over your roof to prevent debris buildup. 
• Snow and ice accumulation on branches can cause them to break and damage your roof, so proactive trimming is key. 

4 - Ensure proper ventilation 

• Adequate ventilation helps prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to mold and wood rot. 
• Check attic vents to make sure they’re unobstructed. 
• Add insulation as needed to maintain energy efficiency and reduce the risk of ice dams. 

5 - Repair leaks and seal gaps 

• Even minor leaks can turn into significant problems during rain or snow. 
• Use caulk or roofing sealant to address small cracks and gaps. 
• For larger repairs, consult a professional to ensure the work is done correctly. 

6 - Schedule a professional inspection 

• While a DIY inspection is helpful, a professional can spot hidden issues you might miss. 
• A RoofScope report provides detailed aerial measurements and expert recommendations for maintenance or repairs. 

More tips for winterizing your roof 

• Install ice and water shields: Protect key areas like valleys and eaves from water damage caused by ice dams. 
• Inspect chimney flashing: Ensure the flashing around your chimney is secure to prevent leaks. 
• Safely remove snow: Use a roof rake to clear snow and reduce stress on your roof. Avoid climbing onto the roof to minimize safety risks. 
• Upgrade roofing materials: If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, consider replacing it with durable materials designed to withstand harsh weather conditions. 

Why RoofScope is the best choice for your roof maintenance 

RoofScope offers advanced aerial measurement reports to help homeowners and roofing contractors prepare their roofs for fall and winter. Our reports: 

• Highlight areas that need attention with precise measurements. 
• Provide accurate data for repairs or material estimates. 
• Save you time and help avoid costly mistakes. 

With RoofScope, you can confidently tackle roof maintenance and protect your home this season. 

Final thoughts 

Getting your roof ready for fall and winter doesn’t have to be overwhelming. By following these simple steps and utilizing professional tools like RoofScope, you can ensure your roof stays in great shape, boost your home’s energy efficiency and avoid unexpected repair costs. Don’t wait until the first snowfall — start preparing your roof today!

Scope Technologies supports Homes For Our Troops with a campaign to fund housing built for accessibility, dignity and recovery. 

Across the United States, injured veterans are reclaiming their independence thanks to custom homes built with accessibility in mind. The national nonprofit Homes For Our Troops (HFOT) is leading that mission, designing and donating specially adapted housing for post-9/11 veterans who have sustained life-altering injuries. Each home is tailored to support daily mobility and restore autonomy, helping veterans rebuild their lives after military service. 

In partnership with Scope Technologies, the two organizations align their shared values of service and commitment. Scope Technologies, a company devoted to providing tools and technologies to roofing contractors, sees this collaboration as one of the most meaningful in its history. “On behalf of everyone at Scope Technologies we are truly grateful for this opportunity to support HFOT and HFOT’s mission of ‘Building Homes and Rebuilding Lives,’” said Jerod Raisch, CEO of Scope Technologies. 

The message is clear: no matter the donation size, the act of giving matters. Contributions to Homes For Our Troops underwrite the cost of homes that include wheelchair accessible showers, roll‑in garages, zero‑step entries and other modifications that empower veterans and their families to live independently. The campaign invites one‑time donations and encourages supporters to join the movement of gratitude in action. 

In supporting the mission, we do more than fund construction: we honor service and provide a foundation for new chapters in life. With every home built and donated, a veteran gains more than shelter. They gain stability, dignity and a renewed sense of purpose. For the month of October, RoofScope will be donating 50 cents for every report ordered along with matching donations up to $50,000.

Recognize these warning signs and take action to save headaches, expense and major damage. 

Editor's note: Share this article with homeowners wanting to consider getting a new roof. 

The roof plays a crucial role in shielding your home from harsh weather and supporting its overall stability. Unfortunately, no roof lasts forever. Over time, normal wear and tear can lead to deterioration, making early detection of issues critical to avoiding major repair costs and safeguarding your property.  

RoofScope®, powered by Scope Technologies, is always looking out for homeowners. We created this guide outlining the warning signs that point to replacing your roof. You’ll also learn about our advanced roof measurement solution designed to support you through the whole process. 

1 - Age of the roof 

One of the first things to consider when deciding to replace your roof is its age. Most roofing materials have a certain lifespan. For example, asphalt shingles usually last between 15 and 30 years, while metal and slate roofs can last up to 50 years or more. If your roof is nearing or has passed its expected lifespan, it’s a good idea to start planning for a replacement. 

Find out more about roof lifespans and when you should think about replacing your roof.

2 - Curling, cracked or missing shingles 

Shingles are your roof’s first line of defense against weather and environmental damage. Over time, they can become brittle, curl up, crack or even fall off due to severe weather. Curling shingles, whether at the edges (cupping) or in the middle (clawing), are a sign that your roof is nearing the end of its life. Likewise, cracked or missing shingles leave your roof vulnerable to water damage, which can lead to leaks and further deterioration. 

3 - Granule loss 

Asphalt shingles are coated with granules that protect them from the sun’s UV rays. Over time, these granules can wear off, especially on older roofs. You might notice granules collecting in your gutters or on the ground around your home. Significant granule loss exposes the shingles to the elements, speeding up the aging process of your roof. 

4 - Water damage and leaks 

Water stains on your ceiling or walls are clear indicators of a leaky roof. Even small leaks can lead to big problems if they’re not fixed, such as mold growth, wood rot and structural damage. If you notice water stains, dampness in the attic or even see daylight peeking through the roof boards, it’s time to take action. 

Learn more about the parts of a roof and how they contribute to its overall health.

5 - Moss and algae growth 

While moss and algae growth might seem like minor cosmetic issues, they can signal deeper problems with your roof. Moss holds onto moisture, which can damage the roofing material over time, especially in colder climates where freezing and thawing occur. If not dealt with, moss can lead to bigger problems, like roof rot and leaks. 

6 - Sagging roof 

A sagging roof deck is a serious issue that usually points to structural damage. This could be caused by prolonged exposure to moisture, problems with the roof’s framing or even issues with the foundation. If you notice your roof sagging, it’s important to consult with a professional as soon as possible, as this might indicate the need for an urgent replacement. 

7 - Increased energy bills 

Your roof plays a key role in insulating your home. If it’s failing, you might notice drafts and leaks that cause your heating and cooling systems to work harder, which can lead to higher energy bills. If you’ve noticed a sudden spike in your energy costs, your roof could be the culprit. 

How RoofScope can help 

Spotting these signs is the first step to making sure your home stays safe and secure. But to really understand the condition of your roof, you need precision and expertise. That’s where RoofScope comes in. RoofScope is an advanced roof measurement software developed by Scope Technologies, offering accurate and detailed roof measurements without the need for manual inspections. By using aerial imagery and sophisticated software, RoofScope provides comprehensive reports that include measurements, roof pitch and other crucial data. 

This technology not only saves time but also boosts the accuracy of your roof assessments, helping you make informed decisions about repairs or replacements. Whether you’re a homeowner planning for a roof replacement or a contractor looking to provide accurate estimates, RoofScope has the tools you need. 

Discover more about RoofScope and how it can support your roofing projects.

For homeowners considering a roof replacement, understanding the costs involved is also essential. RoofScope offers a detailed Roof Cost Guide to help you estimate the expenses of your roof replacement, ensuring you’re financially prepared. 

Conclusion 

Your roof is vital to your home’s safety, comfort and value. By keeping an eye out for these warning signs, you can make sure your roof continues to protect your home effectively. Don’t wait until small issues turn into major problems. Regularly inspect your roof and consider a professional evaluation if you notice any of the signs mentioned above.

Skip the ladder. Ditch the guesswork. Take precision aerial measurements to the next level. 

If you're still climbing roofs with a ladder and measuring tape, you're not just wasting time – you're leaving money on the table and likely losing jobs to your competition. Modern roofing technology has revolutionized how smart contractors measure, quote, and win jobs. Let's explore how our team of experts at RoofScope®, powered by Scope Technologies, explain how precision satellite aerial roof measurements, especially when coupled with analytics and workflow automation, can transform how you do business. So, what exactly are satellite roof measurements? 

Imagine being able to measure a roof with pinpoint accuracy without ever stepping foot on a ladder. That’s the magic of satellite roof measurements. By using high-resolution images captured from above, every detail of a roof can be documented. This means you get precise measurements without the hassle (and danger) of manual measuring and possibly mismeasuring. 

How does it work? 

• Image collection: High-resolution images are captured from an elevated perspective, documenting everything down to the smallest feature. 
• Data analysis: Sophisticated software analyzes these images to calculate the dimensions, slope,  and other key aspects of the roof, such as obstacles. 
• Detailed reporting: Once analyzed, the software generates a report that includes all the measurements, a 3D model of the roof and even material estimates. 

It’s like having a bird’s-eye view, but without having to step foot on the roof and with the added benefit of advanced technology doing all the calculations and analysis for you. 

Why should you care about satellite roof measurements? 

If you’re still relying on old-school measuring tapes and manual calculations, it might be time to rethink your approach. Here’s why satellite roof measurements are a game-changer: 

• Accuracy: Say goodbye to guesswork. Satellite measurements provide exact data, so you can plan your projects with confidence. 
• Speed: No more climbing up and down ladders or spending hours measuring by hand. Get the information you need in a fraction of the time. 
• Safety: Keeping your feet on the ground means fewer accidents and a safer work environment. 
• Scalability: Whether you’re working on a single home or a massive commercial project, satellite measurements can handle it all. 

Meet RoofScope: Your partner in precision aerial measurements 

While satellite measurements are impressive on their own, RoofScope takes precision to the next level with its aerial measurement technology. Developed by Scope Technologies, RoofScope combines high-resolution aerial imagery with powerful software that uses advanced analytics and workflow automation to deliver the most accurate and comprehensive roof measurement reports available.

Your guide to finding the aerial roof measurement provider that’s right for you. 

Not all providers have the proven experience, technology and customer service necessary to deliver accurate roof measurements for your roofing business. Our experts at RoofScope® identified the most important factors to keep in mind when selecting a first-rate aerial measurement provider. 

1 - Accuracy guaranteed with a Service Level Agreement (SLA) 

Accuracy is paramount in roof measurement reports. A reputable provider guarantees precise measurements with a service level agreement (SLA), minimizing costly errors and rework. Accurate reports help you create reliable quotes and streamline project planning, saving you both time and money. 

2 - White-label branding options 

Branding your roof measurement reports with your company's logo adds professionalism to your proposals. Choose a provider that offers white-label options to help contractors reinforce their brand identity, allowing you to present your business as a trusted leader in the roofing industry. 

3 - Expert CAD technicians, not just machines 

The best measurement providers go beyond automated processes with expert CAD technicians, who are highly trained in architectural best practices. These professionals bring high levels of expertise and accuracy that machines alone cannot match, offering flexibility and customization tailored to the specific needs of each project. 

4 - Strict quality control procedures 

Quality control is vital to preventing errors that can delay projects and increase costs. A good provider follows a rigorous quality control process to ensure that each report is accurate and meets high industry standards. 

5 - User-friendly, streamlined reports 

Concise, easy-to-read reports are essential for efficient project management. Simplified, user-friendly roof measurement reports save time, reduce printing costs and present information clearly to clients. 

6 - Dedicated account managers for superior support 

Having dedicated support is key to getting the most out of your aerial roof measurement software. The best providers offer dedicated account managers who assist you throughout the entire process, from ordering reports to handling revisions and offering training, ensuring seamless support and operational efficiency. 

7 - Comprehensive coverage, even in challenging areas 

Measuring roofs in areas with obstacles, like dense tree coverage, can be challenging. Top providers use proprietary technology to provide accurate roof measurements even in difficult conditions, ensuring that every project receives reliable data. 

8 - Flexible reporting options for every stage 

Flexibility is crucial when managing multiple projects. The best providers offer both light and full reports, allowing you to start small and upgrade when more comprehensive data is needed. This flexibility ensures you can scale your reports as projects progress, saving time and resources. 

9 - Integration with estimating and ordering software 

Efficient project management relies on integrating your roof measurement reports with estimation and material take-off software. A provider that supports this integration allows you to create real-time estimates and purchase orders effortlessly, ensuring operational efficiency without additional costs. 

10 - Proven experience and proprietary technology 

Experience matters when choosing a roof measurement provider. A seasoned provider that uses proprietary technology is more likely to offer reliable, consistent results and avoid issues tied to third-party technology limitations. 

Conclusion 

When choosing an aerial roof measurement provider, it's essential to consider accuracy, expertise, technology and customer support. RoofScope, developed by Scope Technologies, meets all of these critical criteria, providing accurate and user-friendly roof measurement reports that enhance your workflow and project outcomes.

From rooftops to real-time data, the future of construction tech is being built now! 

If you haven’t heard what’s brewing inside RoofScope from Scope Technologies, now’s the time to find out. Known for transforming aerial measurement into an industry standard, we’re not just refining our tools; we’re reshaping the way contractors operate. With fresh upgrades, bold integrations and a vision grounded in speed, accuracy and customer-first thinking, RoofScope is raising the stakes. And I’m excited to be a part of it as the CEO. From the first keystroke to the final quote, this isn’t just about measurement anymore. It’s about momentum. 

Since 2011, Scope’s mission has been to be the roofer’s best technology friend. Even before its introduction and early adoption by contractors, Scope has been at the vanguard of producing accurate and timely aerial measurement reports, developing the trust of contractors(a requirement for them to use this time-saving technology for decision-making), prospecting, sales and operational excellence. We have seen others in our vertical come and go (it’s not a simple endeavor and well-founded intellectual property rights protect the discipline); even now, new companies arise as construction technologies change and advance. We couldn’t be more excited and proud to be at the forefront of this changing industry. 

We continue to make significant investments in our technologies to support our customers’ growth and Scope continues to provide the best measurement data in the industry. Our core mission hasn’t changed: saving contractors time and money by offering the best measurement reports. We prioritize our clients by being a reliable extension of their team. Whether providing a direct line to their dedicated account manager or our knowledgeable customer experience team or relying on or our quality assurance team that routinely inspects reports and, if needed, recalibrates a measurement, we ensure top-notch support so our customers can make a first-call close. 

We remember years ago when we had a targeted delivery time for a measurement report (within 48 hours) to attract more clients. Well, we missed that target multiple times. Because demand was phenomenal, when we were super overloaded, it would take three to four days. Thank God for loyal customers who have stuck with us through those growing pains. Today, we deliver our flagship RoofScope report in under three hours at mass scale and do the same for most of our other residential and blueprint reports. We provide our commercial reports in under 24 hours, but we always want to ensure that our clients receive the best data within the industry. So, we will never sacrifice our rigorous quality control process. 

When we launched our SaaS estimating tool, ProDocs, our vision was to provide a solution that precisely streamlined quoting and material takeoff workflows. Having the best measurement data was the prerequisite; using our data, we endeavored to create the easiest-to-use SaaS estimating tool in the industry. So, now, it’s valuable and functional. But behind the scenes, ProDocs is still keeping our engineers busy. We have turned ProDocs into an easier-to-use, intuitive and powerful SaaS field service tool so our customers can create accurate quotes with a keystroke. And their operations team can create material purchase orders in seconds. ProDocs 2.0 is now streamlining measurement-to-quote-to-PO workflows for contractors so they can spend less time doing paperwork and more time growing their businesses. 

We have produced millions of roofing measurement reports with computer-aided-design drafting technicians; we record those data points. As pioneers in this measurement business, we have measured millions of structures with hundreds of millions of data points. We have always sought ways to improve our reports’ functionality and improve our customers’ experience. 

For example, we determined that specific AI can help with additional insights on properties. So, we developed our property insight report: ProData. Our ProData report shows code data for the property, including current tax rates, building municipality contact information, historic weather data, historic permit data, home values and equity, sales history, current mortgage data, financing analysis and neighborhood data for marketing scoring. 

Last year, we completed a restructuring of our proprietary platform. We did our best not to disrupt our delivery system; thankfully, we have the best, terrifically tolerant clients. Now we perform faster and more accurately with more and more properties every day. Our clients can get our new ProData reports and productively leverage that data in their workflows. 

Scope is working toward full vertical integration with our proprietary software suite to create a remote measurement report, quote, presentation and material purchase order - delivering it all within three hours. SmartQuote™ & SmartPO™ are now available with RoofScope. Our new motto, Better Data Bigger Profits®, will be more evident in your experience shortly. We’re looking forward to sharing it with you. These efforts do not and will not replace our valued partners. We integrate and wholeheartedly support our partners; these special third-party partners provide invaluable tools that empower decisions and workflows and help our customers compete and win more projects. Our data will generally integrate into our partners’ ecosystems early in the marketing phase of our clients’ workflows. 

Things are happening in the industry! Important things. Can you say QXQ!?! While the industry continues to consolidate, the entire ecosystem is starting to mesh and it feels awesome. ABC Supply Co., Inc. is an amazing company that consistently puts its customers first. ABC Supply was the first to offer open APIs. As others follow suit and as we all continue to partner and drive innovation, our customers (and their customers!) will reap the benefits of better service, quality and profits. 

Property taxes, P&C insurance, utilities and interest rates, to say nothing about the increased cost of living, have us all a little skittish, but I see light at the end of the tunnel as we work together with new processes, technologies and materials to cost-effectively protect our homes. Also, all of us have been feeling the pain of continuing material price increases, but for all of you who have been in the industry for some time, we knew it was inevitable. However, these materials protect the consumer’s most significant asset, their home. I believe we will see interest rates drop so the average homeowner can make better investment decisions for superior products and workmanship. 

Ultimately, we are grateful for the many years of support from the best clients in the roofing and exterior specialty contractors industry (some have been with us since our beginnings). We have been blessed to work with the top distributors and we owe them immeasurable gratitude for working productively with us for all these years - ditto for so many manufacturers. 

This year will be epic; as always, Scope Technologies will be working tirelessly, serving the best industry in the World, one client at a time. We are just getting started!
