What Thermal Imaging Reveals

Drag the slider to compare a standard visual photo vs. thermal scan of the same roof. Hidden problems become impossible to miss.

Standard Visual
Thermal IR

Simulated thermal overlay for demonstration. Actual scans use DJI M30T 640×512 thermal sensor.

What This Scan Found:

Moisture Trapped Under Shingles
Cool spots (blue zones) near the northwest ridge indicate water infiltration beneath the shingle layer, likely from compromised flashing.
High Priority
Insulation Gap — South Slope
Hot spots along the south-facing slope show heat bleeding through the decking — a 3×8 ft area with missing or compressed insulation.
Medium Priority
Vent Boot Deterioration
Thermal anomaly around the plumbing vent stack suggests the rubber boot is cracked, allowing air and moisture exchange.
Medium Priority
East & North Slopes — Clear
Uniform thermal signature with no anomalies detected. Shingles, underlayment, and decking appear intact.
No Action Needed

Overall Roof Health: Good

Your roof has 3–5 years of remaining service life with two targeted repairs. Addressing the NW ridge moisture and vent boot now will prevent costly decking damage and extend the roof's lifespan significantly.

Traditional Inspection vs. Drone + Thermal

Zero Injury Risk

No one climbs your roof. No ladders, no falls, no liability. The drone captures everything from 50–100 feet up safely.

3× Faster

A complete thermal + visual scan takes 15–20 minutes versus 45–60 for a manual inspection. Same day report delivery.

Sees the Invisible

Thermal imaging detects trapped moisture, insulation failures, and leak sources hidden beneath shingles that visual inspection misses entirely.

Bulletproof Documentation

Timestamped, GPS-tagged, high-res imagery holds up for insurance claims, warranty disputes, and real estate transactions.

Save on Repairs

Catching a $300 flashing repair before it becomes a $5,000 decking replacement. Early detection saves thousands.

Insurance Ready

Pre-storm baseline scans + post-storm damage documentation. Adjusters trust drone evidence — stronger claims, faster payouts.
