The Truth about Drone Roof Inspections

Drone imagery provides detailed aerial views of roofs and other elevated structures without requiring anyone to walk across the roof.

La Droneman's drone roof imaging can help document visible conditions such as:

• Missing or damaged shingles

• Curling or lifted shingles

• Visible staining or algae

• Debris

• Vents and skylights

• Gutters and flashing

• Other visible exterior damage

What drone imagery cannot determine

Drone imagery is a visual documentation tool. It cannot reliably identify conditions that are not visible from above, including soft decking, hidden leaks, trapped moisture beneath roofing materials, or certain structural problems.

For those conditions, a qualified roofing or building professional should perform an appropriate physical inspection.
