Beacon’s integration with GAF provides contractors with another option to take the guesswork out of the estimation process by ordering QuickMeasure reports to get fast and accurate roof measurements. “This is a much more convenient and cost-efficient way for our customers to access property owner’s roof details and images,” said Jamie Samide, Beacon’s Vice President of Marketing. “Continued investment in our digital platform increases customer loyalty and enhances profit margin, both of which help drive above market growth in line with our Ambition 2025 strategy.”

GAF QuickMeasure reports provide accurate roof measurements, which are guaranteed in less than an hour for single family homes and less than 24 hours for multifamily or commercial buildings. GAF QuickMeasure also provides an editable 3D rendering, past views to help understand how the property has changed over time and a bill of materials at no additional cost.

“GAF is committed to providing contractors the products and services they need to grow their businesses quickly and efficiently,” said Bobby Fischer, Vice President of Partner Programs at GAF. “We are very excited to deepen our partnership with Beacon. This integration with Beacon PRO+ will provide contractors even easier access to everything they need for a roofing job - from ordering a GAF QuickMeasure report to purchasing GAF roofing products.”
