Union Corrugating
About Union Corrugating
For over three-quarters of a century, Union Corrugating Company has served the metal building components market. The company was launched in 1946 when Mr. J. E. Union left West Virginia with his manually operated corrugating machine and settled in Fayetteville, NC. By the early 1950s, J.E. had built a small business that was struggling to survive.

About The Project
Mission: This roofing company recently purchased another client of ours, Reed's Metals. Union Corrugating didn't have their own website; with aquring Reed's metals, they were interested in having a similar website so they reached out to us to build their website too. The main goals were to have a tool where users can upload a picture of their roof and see how different products would look on it. They also wanted to show off their previous work. Additionally, they wanted a page where users can find contractors, using Google Maps to show the results on a map.
Technologies Used: Laravel, Tailwind CSS, Google Maps API, Google Geocode API

Summary
I loved the design on this website. It is gorgeous. I coded 90% of this app by myself. I think the only thing I didn't do was the sidebar search on the products page. I got the backend done first to interface with the database and create, read, update, delete all the models using a CMS system that we created for Laravel.
