Quick Answer

Why take drone property photos before roof work?

Drone property photos before roof repair or replacement create a dated visual baseline of visible roof surfaces, exterior elevations, driveway areas, landscaping, trees, gutters, and site access before contractor work changes the property. The record supports homeowner documentation and planning, but it is not an inspection or contractor performance evaluation.

FAQ

Common questions

Should I schedule before materials are delivered?

Yes, if possible. The clearest baseline is usually captured before materials, crews, dumpsters, trailers, or equipment arrive.

Can you document after the roof work too?

Yes. A follow-up comparison visit can be added after roof repair, replacement, storm events, or renovations.

Is this a roof inspection?

No. It is a visible photographic record and does not evaluate workmanship, code compliance, damage, or roof performance.

Can I share the photos with my roofer?

Yes. The digital gallery or portal can be used for contractor conversations and owner records.
