FAQs
What does “advanced diagnostics” mean in the context of roof repair?
Advanced diagnostics refers to the use of high-tech tools—such as drones, infrared cameras, moisture meters, and digital borescopes—to locate hidden or developing roof issues without destructive probing. By capturing thermal images, aerial photos, and internal moisture readings, our Oak Ridge technicians can pinpoint leaks, trapped water, failing fasteners, and insulation voids with far greater accuracy than traditional visual inspections alone.
How do drone and infrared inspections benefit my Oak Ridge home or business?
Drone photography provides a safe, bird’s-eye view of every slope, valley, and penetration, eliminating the need for ladders or rooftop foot traffic that might damage shingles. Infrared thermography highlights temperature anomalies that signal moisture intrusion or missing insulation. Together they create a detailed condition map, allowing us to target repairs precisely, document damage for insurance, and generate an objective before-and-after record.
Will using advanced diagnostics increase or decrease the overall repair cost?
Although the diagnostic equipment is sophisticated, it usually lowers your total cost. By isolating the exact problem areas, we avoid unnecessary tear-offs and material waste, complete repairs faster, and reduce call-backs. Most Oak Ridge customers end up saving 10–30 % compared with conventional ‘find-and-fix’ methods that rely on guesswork.
How fast can you identify and fix a leak with these methods?
In many cases we can perform a full diagnostic scan, review the data, and provide a repair plan the same day we arrive. Minor repairs can often be completed on the spot. For larger projects, the data allows us to order precise materials and schedule a crew within 24–48 hours. Fast, accurate diagnosis means less water damage to your interior and structure.
Do you work with insurance companies for storm or hail damage claims?
Yes. Our detailed diagnostic reports include annotated drone photos, thermal images, and moisture readings that meet or exceed insurer documentation requirements. We’ll meet with the adjuster on-site, explain the findings in plain language, and help negotiate a fair settlement so your Oak Ridge property gets the full repair or replacement value it deserves.
Will I need to vacate my property during the diagnostic testing?
No. The equipment is non-invasive and quiet. Drones remain outside, and handheld sensors are used on the roof or in the attic without disturbing living or working spaces. You can stay fully operational while we gather the data, and you’ll receive a digital report you can review at your convenience.
