  The homepage at estimate.nolandsroofing.com is a ~5,000-line client-side
  React estimator funnel. An AI crawler or in-browser agent (ChatGPT,
  Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews) that fetches "/" has to
  render JavaScript to see any content. This file is the plain-text,

  answer about Noland's Roofing in seconds without executing the funnel.

  It is discoverable three ways: linked from /llms.txt (## Markdown

## What Noland's Roofing is

A Florida-licensed general contractor specializing in **asphalt shingle,
tile, metal, and flat (low-slope) roofing** for residential and commercial
properties across Central Florida. Positioned as **severe-weather
specialists** — the market is defined by hurricanes, hail, and wind, and
the product reflects that.

## The promise (homepage hero)

**Get your roof priced in 30 seconds.** We measure your roof from satellite
imagery and price it on the spot. Free, no obligation, no pressure. *No
callbacks until you ask.*

## How the estimator works

1. **Enter your address.** No account, no rep visit required.
2. **Confirm the building** on a satellite map.
3. **Get clear pricing tiers** (Good / Better / Best / Elite) in about 30–50
   seconds, measured from satellite imagery and cross-referenced against
   county records and recent severe weather.

Nobody visits your property to generate the estimate. A licensed roofer only
comes on site if *you* ask — and that on-site visit is where the final,
binding price is set.

## What an estimate includes

- **Roof area measured from satellite imagery** — Google's Solar API provides
  photogrammetric segments (per-facet sloped area, pitch, azimuth). On
  properties with high-resolution imagery (most of suburban Florida),
  accuracy is typically within **2% of professional aerial roof reports**.
- **County property record cross-reference** — year built, lot size, county
  assessed value, last recorded sale (Florida statewide cadastral records via
  the Florida Geographic Information Office).
- **Recent severe weather** — wind, hail, and tornado reports within **25
  miles** of the property over the last **12 months** (National Weather
  Service Local Storm Reports via the Iowa Environmental Mesonet). Shown for
  context only — it does **not** change the price.
- **Four transparent pricing tiers** (below).

## Pricing tiers

The estimate returns four tiers — a **CertainTeed warranty ladder**. Every
tier is a real CertainTeed shingle system; the step up between tiers is the
CertainTeed warranty level (only a CertainTeed Select Shingle Master can
offer the upper tiers). All four carry a **160 mph wind rating** and include
tear-off, permit, magnetic site sweep, flashing, labor, haul-away, and
Noland's workmanship warranty.

| Tier | What it is |
| --- | --- |
| **Good** — Basic Protection | CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingle, synthetic underlayment, aluminum drip edge and pipe boots. **CertainTeed SureStart** warranty (10-yr manufacturing defects) + 10-yr workmanship. |
| **Better** — Popular | Everything in Good, plus ice-and-water shield in valleys and at penetrations, pre-finished drip edge, and hip-and-ridge cap. Upgraded to the **CertainTeed 3-Star Warranty** + 15-yr workmanship. *Most Florida homeowners pick this.* |
| **Best** — Premium Protection System | CertainTeed **Landmark Pro** premium dimensional shingle installed as the CertainTeed **Integrity Roof System** (engineered as a system, not parts), premium ridge vent. **CertainTeed 4-Star Warranty** + 20-yr workmanship. |
| **Elite** — Best of the Best | The flagship: the same Integrity Roof System as Best, with ice-and-water across the full roof deck and a hurricane-grade ring-shank nailing pattern, upgraded to the **CertainTeed 5-Star Premier Warranty** — lifetime and transferable, a credential only **2 roofers in all of Central Florida** can offer. |

Low-slope sections (under ~2.5-in-12 pitch — lanai covers, screened porches)
are listed but **priced separately on site**, because they need a different
material (TPO membrane / modified bitumen) than the main shingle area. Keeps
the headline number honest.

## Data sources behind each estimate

| Source | What it provides |
| --- | --- |
| Google Solar API | Photogrammetric roof segments (sqft, pitch, azimuth per facet) |
| Google Static Maps | Satellite photograph |
| Google Gemini (Pro Image) | Cyan-overlay painting — decorative; the mask is composited over the *real* satellite photo, never an AI-generated building |
| Google Gemini (Flash) | Object detection (vents, chimneys, HVAC, skylights), material + line classification |
| Florida GIO cadastral | Year built, sqft, county value, last sale |
| NOAA / NWS Local Storm Reports (via Iowa Environmental Mesonet) | Recent severe-weather events |
| Microsoft Global ML Building Footprints | Footprint fallback when Solar undercounts |

## How honesty is built into the product

- **Pricing is deterministic, not AI-generated.** Tier math is calibrated
  against Noland's actual Florida install costs.
- **The painted image is the real Google satellite tile** with a translucent
  overlay tracing the roof boundary — not an AI-generated image of the home.
- **The estimate is non-binding.** Final pricing depends on what a licensed
  roofer finds on site: decking condition, existing layers, code work,
  manufacturer requirements.
- **AI voice consent is explicit.** If a follow-up call is part of the flow,
  the consent disclosure makes the AI-generated voice clear at opt-in (per
  TCPA and the FCC 2024 AI-disclosure ruling). Calls are placed by an AI
  assistant named **Sarah**, who identifies as AI in the first sentence.

## Frequently asked questions

**How accurate are the roof measurements?**
Noland's measures your roof using Google's Solar API photogrammetry combined
with high-resolution satellite imagery. On properties with high-resolution
imagery (most of suburban Florida), accuracy is typically within 2% of
professional aerial roof reports. Final measurement is confirmed on site by a
licensed roofer before any binding quote.

**Where does the roof data come from?**
Three independent public sources: Google's Solar API (photogrammetric roof
segments), Google Static Maps (the satellite photo), and Florida statewide
cadastral records (year built, lot size, county assessed value). Recent
severe-weather events come from NWS Local Storm Reports via the Iowa
Environmental Mesonet.

**Do I need to be home for the estimate?**
No. The entire estimate is generated from public satellite imagery and county
records. No one visits your property unless you specifically request a rep to
confirm the final scope of work.

**How long does the estimate take?**
About 30 to 50 seconds. The estimator fetches the satellite tile, runs roof
segmentation, looks up your county parcel record, and pulls recent
severe-weather history — all in parallel.

**Was my estimate generated by AI?**
The roof visualization uses Google Gemini for image annotation and Google's
Solar API for measurement. The pricing math is deterministic and calibrated
against actual Florida contractor markets — not generated by AI. Every
estimate is reviewed by a licensed roofer before any binding quote. If a
follow-up call is part of the flow, it may be placed by an AI voice
assistant; the consent disclosure makes this clear at opt-in.

**Is this estimate binding?**
No. The displayed price is a quick satellite-based estimate. Final pricing
depends on what a licensed roofer finds on site — decking condition, existing
layers, code work, manufacturer requirements. The estimate sets honest
expectations and lets you decide whether to invite a rep for a site visit.

**What do the pricing tiers include?**
Four CertainTeed tiers, differentiated by warranty level. **Good** is the
economy package: CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingle, synthetic
underlayment, drip edge and pipe boots, backed by CertainTeed's SureStart
warranty and a 10-year workmanship warranty. **Better** (most homeowners'
pick) adds ice-and-water shield in valleys and at penetrations, hip-and-ridge
cap, and the CertainTeed 3-Star Warranty. **Best** upgrades to Landmark Pro
shingle installed as the CertainTeed Integrity Roof System with the 4-Star
Warranty. **Elite** is the flagship — the same system with the CertainTeed
5-Star Premier Warranty (lifetime, transferable), which only two roofers in
Central Florida can offer. Every tier includes tear-off, ridge cap, flashing,
labor, and haul-away, and carries a 160 mph wind rating.

**Does this work for tile, metal, or slate roofs?**
The estimator detects the roof material from the satellite imagery and quotes
at material-appropriate rates. When material-detection confidence is below a
strict threshold, the system quotes at architectural-shingle prices by
default — under-pricing slightly rather than wildly over-quoting on a wrong
guess. A rep adjusts the final material on site.

**Why is part of the roof quoted separately?**
Low-slope sections (under ~2.5-in-12 pitch — common on lanai covers and
screened-porch roofs) are listed on the estimate but priced separately on
site, because they require a different material (TPO membrane or modified
bitumen) than the main asphalt-shingle area, with different installation
requirements and manufacturer warranties.

**How is severe-weather information used?**
Wind, hail, and tornado reports within 25 miles of your address over the past
12 months are pulled from NWS Local Storm Reports. This is displayed for
context only — it does **not** change your estimate price. It exists so you
know what your roof has been through.

**Is my address shared with anyone?**
Your address is shared only with your local Noland's Roofing office — and only
after you request an in-person visit. Noland's does not sell or share your
information with third parties.
