Custom roof inspection and warranty software for your whole portfolio
Appfront builds software for the back office of roof inspections and warranties: an overview of all roofs with their warranty, terms and condition, warranties that are expiring, claims with the complete file, repairs that are outstanding, and reporting to property owners on their entire portfolio. We describe the inspection on the roof and the report on the page about the app.
What is software for roof inspections and warranties per portfolio?
A roofer who lays a roof often gives a guarantee, sometimes together with the manufacturer of the roofing material. The guarantee comes with conditions, such as periodic inspection and maintenance. The roof is inspected with an app, which produces the report. But anyone with hundreds or thousands of roofs under guarantee, or who manages a whole portfolio for an owner, needs a different overview in the office.
In many businesses, guarantee certificates sit in a folder, conditions in the contracts, and inspection reports in the inspector's inbox. Which guarantees expire this year, or which roofs have missed an inspection the guarantee requires, nobody knows without searching. When there is a leak, the file for a claim has to be pieced together. And a housing association wants to know how all those roofs are doing, and gets separate reports.
We build custom solutions because businesses and portfolios differ: which types of guarantee you issue, which conditions apply, how you inspect, which owners you serve, and which app and accounting system you use. What a guarantee exactly covers is set out in your terms and the manufacturer's; the software keeps track of what those terms say.

Security and privacy in roof inspection and portfolio warranty software

Frequently asked questions about roof inspection and portfolio warranty software
Questions that roofers and property managers ask before getting started.
It shows the warranty, terms, inspections and condition for each roof, flags expiring warranties and missed inspections, supports claims with the complete file, and reports to owners on all their roofs with a multi-year overview.
The app is for the inspection on the roof: points on the floor plan, photos, the report and repair advice. This software is for the office: all roofs, warranties, claims and reporting to owners. Inspections from the app flow into this software.
Yes, for the terms you record, such as an inspection each year or maintenance after a set period. A roof at risk of missing a term raises a signal, so the inspection is scheduled in time.
When a claim comes in, the complete file is ready: the warranty with its terms, previous inspections and reports, photos and the repairs carried out. This makes it quick to assess whether the claim falls under the warranty.
Yes, if you wish, through a portal showing their own roofs, reports and the multi-year overview. This saves sending individual reports.
Yes. Inspections and reports from the app go straight to the roof in the software, and any repair arising from an inspection becomes a work order.
Check this first. Some packages include warranty management, which is enough for a small portfolio. Custom development makes sense with many roofs, warranties with their own terms, or owners who want reporting on their portfolio.
