After a storm, current aerial photographs can help homeowners, contractors, inspectors, adjusters, and property managers document visible roof conditions. Ocean State Drone Company provides on-site drone capture in Rhode Island with an AI-assisted damage report and a separate roof measurement report.

What can a drone roof inspection document?

An FAA Part 107-certified pilot captures high-resolution roof imagery. AI-assisted analysis can flag visible anomalies and potential damage, such as cracks, missing or displaced shingles, and impact areas, for review. The images show conditions visible at the time of capture; findings should be assessed in context by the appropriate roofing, inspection, engineering, or claims professional.

What is included in the reports?

Every residential AI-assisted roof inspection includes on-site drone capture, an AI-assisted damage report, and a detailed roof measurement report. The damage report organizes image-backed observations and areas flagged for review. The separate measurement report includes dimensions, areas, pitches, facets, ridges, hips, valleys, rakes, and eaves for estimating and material planning.

You can preview the redacted sample reports and current residential pricing. Commercial, multifamily, multi-structure, and unusually complex properties are quoted individually.

Can the reports support an insurance claim?

The imagery, annotations, and measurements can support claim documentation and professional review. Coverage decisions, cause determinations, and claim approval remain with the insurer and the qualified professionals handling the claim. AI-assisted observations do not establish that an insurer will accept a claim.

What are the limitations?

The service documents conditions visible in high-resolution drone imagery. Thermal or infrared imaging is not included. A drone report does not replace a roofer, home inspector, engineer, or claims adjuster when their judgment or certification is required.

Flights depend on weather, wind, precipitation, visibility, safe property access, and airspace requirements. If conditions are unsuitable, the inspection is rescheduled for the next practical opportunity.

Where is the service available?

Ocean State Drone Company serves residential and commercial properties throughout Rhode Island. Nearby Massachusetts and Connecticut projects may be available for larger or multi-property assignments.
