Roof
Inspections.
Free, no-pressure roof inspections backed by FAA Part 107 drone aerials, hands-on checks, and a written condition report with photos. We tell you exactly what we find — nothing more, nothing less.
A Thorough, Top-to-Bottom Check
We inspect every layer of your roof system — from the shingles down to the decking — and document everything with photos so you can see exactly what we see.
Shingles & Flashing
Missing, cracked, lifted, or blistered shingles and failing flashing around chimneys, skylights, and valleys.
Decking & Underlayment
Soft spots, sagging, water-stained, or rotting decking and compromised underlayment beneath the shingles.
Penetrations & Vents
Pipe boots, exhaust vents, skylights, and chimney flashing — the most common spots for hidden leaks.
Gutters & Drainage
Gutter alignment, downspout flow, sagging sections, and signs of water backing up under the eaves.
Attic & Ventilation
Interior moisture, mold, insulation condition, and proper intake/exhaust ventilation balance.
Storm & Hail Damage
Hail impact marks, wind-lifted shingles, and debris damage — documented for insurance if needed.
When to Schedule an Inspection
Most roofs only need a checkup once a year — but these moments call for a closer look.
After a Storm
Hail, wind, or falling debris can cause hidden damage that worsens over time. We document it before it becomes a leak.
Buying a Home
Don't trust the seller's word alone. We inspect the roof's true condition and remaining lifespan before you close.
Selling a Home
A clean bill of health prevents deal-killing surprises during the buyer's inspection and supports your asking price.
Your Roof is 15+ Years Old
Asphalt shingles near the end of their lifespan. We tell you honestly whether repair or replacement is the smarter move.
Insurance Renewal
Carriers are dropping or raising premiums on aging roofs. A documented inspection helps you stay ahead of non-renewals.
Annual Maintenance
A yearly inspection catches small issues early — the single best way to extend the life of your roof.

Drone Aerial
FAA Part 107 licensed pilot captures full roof aerials — no ladder needed for the overview.
Hands-On Check
We walk the roof, check flashing, vents, and decking, and inspect the attic and gutters.
Written Report
You receive a photo-documented condition report with honest findings and clear next steps.
We See What a Ladder-Only Inspection Can't
Our licensed drone pilot captures high-resolution aerials of every roof plane, valley, and penetration — so nothing gets missed. We combine the aerial view with a hands-on walk for the most complete picture of your roof's condition. Every inspection is photo-documented and delivered in a written report you can keep.
- Full aerial photo coverage of every roof plane
- Written condition report with findings and photos
- Honest assessment — we never push unnecessary work
Ground View vs. Bird's-Eye View
Some damage simply can't be seen from the ground. Below is the same roof from both angles — notice what the drone catches that the street view misses.
House 1 — Southern Wisconsin
From the driveway, the roof looks intact — no obvious damage from this angle.
A ground view of the gable — shingles appear uniform and seated.
Full aerial — every roof plane, valley, and vent visible at once.
Direct overhead — the chimney, plumbing vents, and full footprint.
Close aerial — missing shingle tab and granule loss invisible from the ground.
Valley intersection — wear and aging visible only from above.
House 2 — Southern Wisconsin
Front elevation — the roofline reads clean from the driveway.
Side gable — no visible damage from ground level.
Low angle — even a ladder only gives a partial view of the eave.
Side view — shingles and chimney flashing stay hidden behind the eave.
Full aerial — chimney, vent, and both roof planes visible at once.
Direct overhead — chimney flashing and vent stack up close.
Angled aerial — brick chimney and flashing condition revealed.
Close aerial — shingle wear and flashing detail invisible from the ground.
A roof that looks fine from the curb can hide wind-lifted shingles, hail bruising, and failed flashing. Our drone aerial catches all of it — so you're never surprised by a leak six months later.
