No listicles, no stock advice, no "5 Reasons to Hire a Drone Company." Just the physics, the standards, and the judgment calls behind the work — written by the investigator holding the controller.
If you manage commercial property in the Twin Cities, here's what a thermal roof inspection actually involves — the after-dark flight, the local weather constraints, and the finding you end up with.
Heat escaping your building means heating dollars going with it. Winter’s indoor-to-outdoor temperature difference helps aerial thermal scans reveal potential insulation gaps, thermal bridging, and air leakage across roofs and facades. Learn why cold weather creates a valuable inspection opportunity—and why roof concerns are best scanned before snow cover limits the view.
Not every flat roof is suitable for thermal inspection. Learn how EPDM, TPO, and stone-ballasted roof coverings—as well as weather and inspection timing—affect infrared roof-scan accuracy.
