FAQs
What is a high-resolution photo roof inspection and how is it different from a standard inspection?
A high-resolution photo roof inspection combines traditional visual checks with ultra-clear digital imagery captured by drones and telescopic camera poles. While a standard inspection relies largely on what the technician can see while walking the roof, our high-resolution system records 4K photos of every plane, valley, flashing and penetration. This allows us to zoom in on small defects—such as nail pops or micro-cracks—that are often missed during a routine walk-through. The images are stored in your customer file so you can review them, seek a second opinion, or compare future inspections against a documented baseline.
Why is a high-resolution photo roof inspection beneficial for Harrison homeowners?
Harrison’s freeze-thaw cycles and lake-effect weather put constant stress on roofing systems. High-resolution images let us measure weathering in exact detail, spot early granule loss, and identify loose shingles before storms cause leaks. Because every finding is photographed, insurance adjusters and warranty providers are more likely to approve legitimate claims. You also gain peace of mind—you see the same evidence we see, so you never have to take a contractor’s word on faith.
How do you capture the high-resolution images—do inspectors need to walk on my roof?
In most cases we keep boots off your shingles. Our FAA-certified drone pilots fly a small quad-copter equipped with a 20-megapixel camera over the roof at multiple angles. For areas restricted by tree cover or local flight rules, we use a 30-foot carbon-fiber camera pole with image stabilization. All photos are geotagged and time-stamped. If structural concerns demand a closer look, we will request permission to access the roof safely with fall-arrest gear.
What issues can be detected through your high-resolution photo inspections?
The clarity of 4K imagery lets us pinpoint: • Missing, lifted or broken shingles • Nail pops, blistering and small punctures • Improperly sealed flashing around chimneys, skylights and pipe boots • Early granule loss indicating aging asphalt • Moss, algae or debris accumulation in valleys and gutters • Hail strikes as small as ¼ inch in diameter • Thermal cracking on flat membrane roofs. Catching these problems early can extend the life of your roof by 5–10 years with minor repairs rather than full replacement.
How long does the inspection take and when will I receive the photos and report?
A typical single-family home in Harrison takes 30–45 minutes of on-site imaging and another hour of off-site analysis. Within 24 hours you receive a secure link to a digital folder containing the raw photos, marked-up images highlighting concerns, and a written condition report with repair recommendations and cost estimates. If you need the documentation for a real-estate transaction or insurance deadline, same-day turnaround is available at no extra charge.
What is the cost of a high-resolution photo roof inspection in Harrison and do you offer follow-up services?
For most homes under 4,000 square feet, the inspection costs $249 flat, which includes the drone flight, image set, and written report. Larger or complex roofs are quoted individually. Should repairs be needed, we credit 50% of the inspection fee toward any work performed by our roofing division within 90 days. We also offer annual maintenance plans that bundle a spring and fall photo inspection with gutter cleaning and minor sealant touch-ups for $379 per year.
