Residential Roof Inspections & Drone Investigations

Your roof protects everything beneath it — your family, your home, your investment. But when problems begin, they often start small and invisible. At Southern Roofing Co., we offer thorough residential roof inspections and cutting-edge drone investigations to detect issues early, assess damage accurately, and help you make informed decisions with confidence.

Whether you’re preparing for a repair, buying or selling a home, recovering from a storm, or simply keeping up with annual maintenance, our inspection services give you a clear, honest picture of your roof’s condition — from every angle.

Why Roof Inspections Matter

Roof problems aren’t always obvious until it’s too late. Leaks, rot, missing shingles, or sagging spots often begin under the surface, where they can quietly compromise the structure and lead to expensive repairs down the line.

A professional inspection from Southern Roofing Co. helps identify:

• Storm or hail damage

• Missing, cracked, or curled shingles

• Deteriorated flashing or sealants

• Drainage or gutter issues

• Moisture intrusion or mold risk

• Structural deformation (sagging or shifting)

• Signs of aging or ventilation failure

We take a methodical approach to each inspection, examining not just the surface, but the full roofing system — including the decking, underlayment, vents, flashing, chimney interfaces, and more.

Ideal Times to Schedule a Roof Inspection

Regular roof inspections are part of responsible home maintenance — especially in areas like Tennessee, where seasonal storms and humidity can accelerate wear and tear. Here are some of the most common scenarios when homeowners call us for an inspection:

• After severe weather (hail, high winds, fallen limbs)

• Before selling or buying a home

• If you notice leaks or water stains

• Before a major repair or roof replacement

• As part of an annual maintenance routine

• To evaluate insurance claim potential

Our team provides same-day or next-day inspections for urgent situations and can accommodate flexible scheduling for non-emergency visits.

Drone-Assisted Roof Inspections

Some roof problems are hard to spot from the ground — or even from a ladder. That’s why we use drone technology to enhance our inspections and provide safe, comprehensive evaluations of every square foot of your roof.

What Our Drone Inspections Offer:

• High-resolution aerial imagery of your entire roof

• Zoomed-in photos of potential problem areas (cracks, lifted shingles, pooling)

• Bird’s-eye view of gutter systems, valleys, ridgelines, and chimneys

• Safe inspections of steep-pitched or hard-to-reach roofs without the risk of damage

Drone data helps us document storm damage, track wear patterns, and provide visual proof for insurance claims. It also allows us to deliver reports more quickly and safely, especially after major weather events when demand for inspections spikes.

What You’ll Get From Our Roof Inspection

Every inspection comes with a written report that includes:

• A clear summary of your roof’s condition

• Photos from both manual and drone-based observations

• Recommended next steps, if any

• Repair or replacement estimate, if applicable

• Documentation for insurance, real estate, or personal records

We take the time to explain everything in plain language and answer any questions you have. You’ll never feel rushed or pressured — just informed and supported.

For Insurance, Real Estate, and Peace of Mind

Roof inspections are not just about finding problems — they’re also about protecting your future. Whether you’re dealing with a claim or planning for resale, having professional documentation of your roof’s condition can make a big difference.

• For Insurance: We provide inspection reports that include photos, damage descriptions, and cost estimates, making it easier to file claims and communicate with adjusters.

• For Home Buyers & Sellers: An independent roof inspection offers leverage in negotiations and confidence in your investment.

• For Homeowners: Early detection can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your roof by years.

We’re here to be your roofing partner—not just during big projects, but also for the small checkups that keep everything working smoothly.
