Making the Design of Your Home's Exterior as Easy as 1, 2, 3.

Without ever stepping foot inside your home, or having to meet in person, our homeowners or one of our crew will need to take just 8 photos of your home’s exterior on a smartphone. Then, the Hover app turns those images into a 3D rendering of your home which can then be used to create measurements and to build a virtual design. 

With the homeowners able to peruse through assorted exterior colors, textures, and designs they can do their own visuals to create their dream home without any outside influence. The app allows them to swap out siding, roofing, doors, windows, shingles—you name it. 

Once their 3D rendering is complete, the system will also give accurate dimensions of their home which allows us to provide a fully detailed estimate of the exterior project. Watch the video below for more information on the 3D rendering process. 

The Benefits of Virtual Design Tools, Like Hover

For contractors, virtual design tools can actually improve communication between their clients by including homeowners more heavily in the design and planning process. Not to mention the ease of being able to bring the projects with them remotely no matter if they are in the office, the car, or visiting a client’s home—the app holds all project details in one handy place. 

For homeowners, the benefit of being able to have a hands-on experience of designing their own exterior remodel gives them the power and confidence to get the exact look they desire. They can change their mind as many times as they want, all while getting a visual tool to see what each color or texture siding they can have. Maybe they had one idea in their heads of what they wanted, and the Hover tool was able to support their design or guide them in an even better direction. 

Using virtual design tools can also save a lot of time and money spent arranging schedules and driving to locations for a design consultation or to make any changes to a design. We love being able to provide this service to our clients now and moving forward. Plus, we are at your full disposal when it comes to navigating Hover, planning a budget, or checking out financing options, and anything related to getting your home in tip-top shape.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don't feel comfortable taking the 8 photos?

No problem! Our of our team members will come to your property and take the photos and upload them for you.

Do I need to be computer savvy to use the design tool?

Not at all. The program itself is fairly simple to use, with simple options to change exterior colors and textures. However, we will be there every step of the way to help you if you need!

How long can I take to design my exterior using Hover?

As long as you need! You can switch around colors and siding options as many times as you need to, and we will be there to help guide you through and get you the right color combinations for a beautiful home. Once we all decide on a final design, the system will allow us to give you an accurate estimate based on the materials and size of your home determined from the 3D rendering.

First American Roofing was very professional from start to finish. When my insurance company didn’t want to admit my roof had hail damage, they stepped in and did all the needed work to prove it. Thanks First American!

First American Roofing and its salesman, Anthony, were excellent. Anthony was on time for all appointments and communicated very well with me throughout the process. He stayed involved and even inspected the job for me taking pictures, as I was out of town during the install. They do top quality work that exceeds all standards. I highly recommend them.

Every member of their amazing team was so professional, personal and attentive to all the details of this whole project. Each and every person I dealt with during this process was completely amazing. I am by no means an expert on any of the things they did but I was completely comfortable with everything they did. I would have them come back for any other project they could do here but I am sure there is nothing else left to do! I love my home again!

We met with Mark to determine the type of siding we wanted and appreciated his honesty and no-pressure attitude. They offered the Everlast line, which we ended up going with for its appearance and low maintenance. Zeke and his crew did a great job- high quality work and very clean. We also got the pleasure of meeting with the owner Dallas. He was honest and fair with us and had a genuine concern that the project went well.

First American Roofing and Siding came out to give us a bid on the day we called them. Coltan answered all of our questions and was very professional. They were able to schedule our house washing in a timely manner. Their work was excellent. We would recommend them to you.

Very professional from start to finish. You know exactly what they are doing and why. Cleanup is meticulous. I would definitely use them in the future but I’m not sure I can outlive the guarantee.

Dallas and crew do a great job! So glad we used them when we built our house. Everything was done to perfection and has held up through some big storms over the past 2 years

I would recommend them to anyone!

I am so relieved to have found a roofing company that was professional, friendly and thorough. Not only do I have an excellent quality roof, but it was also at the fairest price. First American really has an efficient system in place! They even have an excellent vinyl washing system that made my whole yard fence like new in no time. I will trust them again with my next home.

Communication is key in our busy world, Dallas and his crew were always respectful of our time and getting back to us to let us know what was happening. First American helped us not only choose the products that were best for us and fit our budget, but they also worked along with our insurance company (thank you Josh) as this was a weather-related claim. We had a few unforeseen issues, they worked through it with us and the end result is we now have a beautiful home and we are excited about the end product!

Recently had my 1980 leaking “skylights” replaced by first American roofing and siding. I was extremely impressed!! The estimate process was very professional and effortless with all the products they had to choose from. Expert advice on which application would fit my project the best with knowledge and experience to back it up. The crews were prompt, clean and respectful of the property, not under construction as well !! I could not be more satisfied!

First American Roofing and Siding provided great service from beginning to end. The GAF shingle quality is outstanding and we felt comfortable knowing our investment was a wise one. We were so confident in their workmanship that we recommended them to our son’s family for their new roof. For us, it wasn’t just about our house it was about our home.

I have to say I was incredibly impressed with the team First American sent out to remove our ice dams. From the time the men arrived to the time they left, I saw hard work, professionalism and honesty. These are definitely qualities I look for in a company who is to be working on my home. I will definitely think about using First American again should I need any future work done!

Was very impressed. Known damage to the roof sheathing was replaced, rotted soffit replaced. Workers did a good job cleaning up and respecting property. Supervisor came the next day and only found a handful of debris they missed.

Mark came to our house and was very knowledgeable when explaining the issues for our roof and what they would offer. He offered 3 different options and took the time to explain everything to us so we understood what was going to happen. The project only took 2 days and the roofing team even worked while it was raining to make sure the roof got completed.  Everyone that I interacted with including Mark, Andrew, Scott and Ruben’s team were very professional and we will be going back for additional house projects.
