Frequently asked questions
+Can a drone replace a home inspector?
No — a drone complements a home inspector by documenting the roof and upper exterior safely. Interior systems still need a licensed inspector.
+How soon should I inspect my roof after a hail storm?
As soon as practical, ideally within days, so damage is documented before insurance deadlines.
