Drone Roof Inspections in Dayton, Ohio
We have FAA Part 107 certified drone pilots. When a drone gives a better view of your roof, we fly it as part of your free roof inspection.
What you get
What a drone roof inspection shows
A drone sees the whole roof at once. It shows every plane, the ridges, the valleys, the chimney and the vents from angles a ladder cannot reach.
It does not replace an inspection on the roof. Where a roof can be walked safely, we walk it. The drone adds photos to that record.
When it helps
When we use a drone for roof inspection
- A roof that is too steep or too tall to walk safely
- A large or cut-up roof that cannot be seen all at once from a ladder
- After a storm, when the whole roof needs to be on record
Most inspections are done on the roof, on foot. We start on the ground, walk the property, then get on the roof. When a drone gives a better view, we fly it.

-
The Helping Hands Roofing Standard
Two rows of ice and water shield at the eaves of every roof, one row in the valleys, along sidewalls and around every pipe and vent, then two layers of synthetic underlayment overlapped 24 inches. More than Ohio code asks for.
Before you sign with any roofer, ask: How many rows of ice and water shield? How many layers of underlayment? What's the overlap?

Lifetime Workmanship Warranty
Covers our workmanship on qualifying installations and replacements. See what it covers.

Documented Before It's Covered
We photograph the bare deck after tear-off, the underlayment before the shingles go on, and the finished roof. If we find rotted wood, we photograph that too.

After a storm
Aerial roof inspection for storm damage and insurance claims
After hail or wind, drone photos put the whole roof and each damaged area in one record. Every finding is photographed and explained in plain words. If you file a claim, those photos are part of the documentation we put together. What your insurance company pays is its decision.
What it costs
Drone roof inspection cost
A drone flight is part of our free roof inspection. We do free roof inspections, and there is no obligation to hire us. If you need an estimate, we write one after the inspection and send it to you.
Pillar Two: Build the System Correctly
The Helping Hands Roofing Standard
A drone doesn't replace a hands-on inspection where one's possible. It adds documentation ground photography can't get: a full-roof view of drainage patterns, flashing conditions, and damage from angles a ladder never reaches.

Kara Aub and his team did a great job with our new roof install. He made sure we were set for the winter and then installed as soon as possible in the spring for best results. Helping Hands also worked directly with our insurance, which was a huge help!

Amanda I would absolutely recommend Helping Hands to anyone. They did a great job replacing my roof and downspouts. I appreciate the amount of work that they put into helping me with my insurance company and how much they cared about me. They helped with things I'm quite sure other companies wouldn't have cared about. In the end, when my insurance company wouldn't budge, they made sure I was taken care of. Thank you for everything.

Rob I highly recommend Aub and the team at Helping Hands Roofing! They replaced my roof five years ago, and we had a fantastic experience. Recently, after experiencing storm damage, Aub and his crew came out quickly to make the repairs. We ran into a few unexpected obstacles both times, but Aub's fast and clear communication made resolving them a breeze. If you’re looking for a local, honest, and family-oriented company, definitely give them a call for your next roofing project.
