Uses visual inspection and drone-assisted imaging, where permitted, to evaluate accessible roof surfaces, visible deterioration, damaged materials, and other potential concerns. Provides additional visibility into roof areas that may be difficult to inspect from the ground.
Starting at $150
Steep, tall and tile or slate roofs can't always be walked safely, and walking them can cause damage. Our licensed drone pilot captures high-resolution photos and video of every slope, valley, chimney and penetration, so nothing is inspected from a distance.
You get annotated images in your report, plus the full set of photos to share with a roofer or insurer.
In Florida, the roof is often the deciding factor in whether an insurer will write a policy and what it will cost. Many insurers ask for a roof certification, sometimes called a roof condition report, before quoting an older home. This residential roof inspection records the roof covering type, its approximate age and the date of the last permit, the visible condition of the covering, flashing and penetrations, any signs of leaks inside the home, and an estimate of remaining roof life. The report is completed on the form your insurer accepts, with photos supporting each answer.
A roof inspection for insurance is narrower than a full roof assessment for a buyer, but the information overlaps. If you're buying, we can include the roof certification with your home inspection so you know before closing whether the roof will cause insurance problems.
Insurers care about two things: how old the roof is and how much useful life it has left. Shingle, tile, metal and flat roofs all age differently in South Florida sun and storms, so age alone doesn't tell the whole story. A well-maintained tile roof can outlast a younger shingle roof that has lost granules, lifted tabs or damaged flashing. Our roof inspector looks for the specific signs underwriters ask about: missing or broken pieces, soft or uneven decking, rusted fasteners, failed sealant around vents and skylights, and stains in the attic or ceilings.
Some roofs can't be walked safely or without causing damage. Our drone roof inspection captures every slope and detail from above, and the same drone inspection service supports drone home inspection and drone building inspection work on larger or taller properties. Ask us whether thermal imaging is available for your property.
Roof inspection cost and drone roof inspection cost depend on the size, height and type of roof and whether the inspection is bundled with a 4-point, wind mitigation or full home inspection. Bundling usually saves a second visit.
A roof inspection for insurance documents the roof's covering type, age, condition and estimated remaining life on a form your insurer accepts. We perform roof and drone roof inspections across South Florida, with photos supporting every answer.
A roof certification is a report confirming the roof's age, condition and remaining useful life. Insurers commonly request one before writing or renewing a policy on a home with an older roof, and buyers often order it alongside their home inspection.
Roof inspection cost depends on the size, height and type of roof and whether we use a drone. It is lower when bundled with a 4-point, wind mitigation or home inspection, and our pricing page lists current rates.
A drone roof inspection uses a drone to capture high-resolution photos and video of the entire roof without walking on it. It's ideal for steep, tall, tile or fragile roofs where walking could be unsafe or cause damage.
Yes. Our roof inspector estimates remaining life based on the covering type, age and visible condition. It's an informed estimate rather than a guarantee, but it's what insurers and buyers use to plan.
A full home inspection includes a visual roof inspection, but it isn't written on an insurer's roof form. If your insurer asks for a roof certification, add it to your home inspection and we'll complete both on one visit.
