How Our Roofing Drones Catch Problems Other Contractors Miss

Let’s face it — not every roofer is eager to climb your steep, aging roof and give it a proper once-over.

That’s why here at Red Patch Roofing, we bring a little high-tech help to every inspection: drones.

Our drone inspections don’t just look cool (though they do). They help us spot roof problems that other contractors miss — and they help YOU see exactly what’s going on overhead.

Here’s why drones make a real difference for homeowners in Berks County and surrounding areas.

🚁 Why Use a Drone for Roof Inspections?

1️⃣ Safety

Some roofs are too steep, slippery, or fragile to walk safely — especially after storm damage. With a drone, we can inspect every inch without risking further damage or injury.

2️⃣ Full Coverage

Even on walkable roofs, it’s easy to miss areas:

• Valleys

• Eaves

• Overhangs

• Tight corners

Our drone provides a 360° view — nothing gets overlooked.

3️⃣ Zoomed-In Detail

Today’s drones capture high-res images and 4K video. We can see:

• Shingle cracks

• Granule loss

• Flashing gaps

• Nail pops

• Soft spots and dips

You’ll see these photos too — we give them to every homeowner.

🔍 What Problems Drones Help Us Spot

✅ Hail damage

✅ Wind-lifted shingles

✅ Weak flashing around chimneys and vents

✅ Blocked gutters

✅ Early granule wear

✅ Ridge and hip defects

In short — the little issues that cause big leaks if ignored.

🏠 Why Homeowners Love It

• No ladders scraping siding

• No damage to fragile or older roofs during inspection

• You get clear photos to reference for insurance claims or repairs

• Transparency — you see exactly what we see

No smoke and mirrors. No “trust me, it’s bad.” You’ll have the photos in hand.
