SERVICE

Thermal inspection — roofs & solar.

Thermal imaging finds what a regular camera can't: trapped roof moisture before it's a leak, and underperforming solar panels before they cost a season of output.

WHAT YOU GET

A flagged image, not just a raw thermal photo.

Annotated thermal map

Hot and cold anomalies marked directly on the image, paired with a normal photo of the same spot for reference.

Roof moisture detection

Trapped moisture under roofing material shows up as a distinct thermal signature, often well before a visible leak develops.

Solar hot-spot detection

Underperforming or failing panels run hotter than their neighbors — visible from the air in a single low-altitude pass.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Roofers, solar installers, property managers & adjusters.

Property managers checking a roof before it becomes a claim, roofers documenting a repair, solar installers verifying panel performance, and insurance adjusters needing post-storm documentation.

FAQ

Does this work on any roof type?

Yes — thermal detection works on composition shingle, tile, and flat/membrane roofs. The signature moisture leaves looks different by material, which the report accounts for.

How soon after a storm should this happen?

As soon as it's safe to fly — thermal signatures from fresh moisture intrusion are clearest in the days immediately following, before conditions dry out or shift.

Can this be used for an insurance claim?

The imagery and report can support documentation for a claim — check with your specific adjuster or carrier on their preferred format.
