Can Drone Roof Inspections Save You Money?
Find out by using this drone roof inspection calculator to quickly estimate your aerial potential and savings by square footage.
The Bottom Line
Drone inspections will save engineers and building owners money on any roof inspection over 50,000 square feet. But that’s not the only benefit drones can provide.
Drones can also complete an entire thermographic roof inspection in a single deployment and at night, all while eliminating worker risk by keeping boots firmly on the ground.
The data you need, safely and affordably acquired.
