FAQs
How does a drone roof inspection work for properties in Andersonville?
One of our FAA-certified pilots arrives on-site with a high-resolution aerial drone. After a brief safety check, the drone is programmed to fly a grid pattern over your roof, capturing 4K video and 20-megapixel still photos from multiple angles. These images are uploaded to our inspection software, which measures shingle condition, flashing integrity, and any storm or hail damage with sub-inch accuracy. A licensed roofing specialist then reviews the data and compiles a detailed, photo-annotated report for you within 24–48 hours.
Is drone roof inspection legal and safe in Andersonville?
Yes. Andersonville falls under Class G (uncontrolled) airspace, so our flights are legal as long as we follow Part 107 regulations—daylight operations, under 400 ft AGL, and visual line of sight. All pilots carry FAA Remote Pilot Certificates and $2 million in liability insurance. Prior to launch we establish a safety perimeter and perform a pre-flight checklist to eliminate risks to people, pets, and property.
What advantages does a drone inspection offer compared to a traditional ladder inspection?
Drone inspections eliminate the hazards of climbing steep or damaged roofs, making the process safer for both the inspector and your home. The high-definition imagery reveals hidden problem areas such as lifted shingles, granular loss, and soft spots that are difficult to see from the roof surface. Because the drone can cover 100% of the roof in minutes, you get quicker results and a permanent digital record that can be shared with insurance adjusters or contractors.
Can you inspect all roof types and sizes in Andersonville?
Absolutely. Our drones can safely document asphalt shingle, metal, slate, tile, flat membrane (EPDM/TPO), and even green roofs. Whether you own a small bungalow on Clark Street or a multi-unit condo building overlooking the lake, we can capture precise measurements and high-resolution imagery without setting foot on the roof.
How long does the inspection take and what will I receive afterward?
On-site flight time averages 15–25 minutes for a standard single-family home and up to 40 minutes for larger commercial buildings. Within 24–48 hours you receive a comprehensive digital packet that includes: • PDF inspection report with annotated photos • Interactive 3D roof model and measurement summary • 4K video footage download link • Recommendations for repairs or maintenance This documentation is accepted by most major insurance carriers.
Will my images and data remain private?
Yes. All imagery is stored on encrypted servers located in the U.S. We never sell or share your data with third parties unless you explicitly ask us to forward it to your insurance company or contractor. Clients receive a unique download link that can be disabled at any time, giving you full control over who sees the footage of your property.
