Elevate your inspections with safe, comprehensive aerial assessment of roofs, chimneys, and high exteriors without ladders or safety risks.
Traditional roof inspections require ladders, physical maneuvering, and significant safety risks. Drone technology provides comprehensive aerial access that's safer, faster, and more thorough than conventional methods.
While InterNACHI Standards of Practice don't require drone use, the opportunities for enhanced inspections are undeniable - making drones a powerful differentiator for forward-thinking inspectors.
Access areas that would be dangerous or impossible to reach safely, while capturing comprehensive high-resolution documentation.
Over 164,000 emergency room visits annually from ladder accidents
Home inspectors face significant liability from roof access incidents
Wet, icy, or steep roofs create dangerous inspection conditions
Eliminate physical risk while improving inspection quality
Comprehensive aerial inspection capabilities that enhance traditional methods
Capture detailed images of shingles, flashing, chimneys, vents, and gutters without dangerous ladder access. Perfect for steep, multi-story, or complex roof systems where traditional inspection would be hazardous or incomplete.
Most significant benefit: Safe access to all roof areas
Check for cracks, loose bricks, deteriorated mortar, and cap conditions without climbing equipment. High-resolution imagery reveals structural issues that would be missed from ground-level observation.
Identifies: Structural damage, missing caps, flashing issues
Identify cracks, rot, pest damage, and installation issues on upper levels and hard-to-reach areas. Particularly valuable for multi-story buildings where scaffolding would otherwise be required.
Detects: Moisture damage, pest entry points, material failure
Inspect for blockages, improper installation, damage, and water flow issues from optimal viewing angles. Document downspout connections and drainage patterns around the entire property perimeter.
Reveals: Blockages, slope issues, connection problems
Inspect solar installations for damage, soiling, loose connections, and proper mounting without physical contact that could damage delicate components or void warranties.
Safe inspection without warranty concerns
Provide 360-degree aerial perspective of entire property including landscaping, drainage patterns, property boundaries, and relationship to neighboring structures and environmental factors.
Context: Site drainage, access, environmental factors
