Don’t Rely on the View From Above—Here’s Why It Matters

Watch: Why You Need a Hands-On Roof Inspection

Drones Are Useful—But They Don’t Tell the Whole Story

A bird’s-eye view of your roof might look informative, but when it comes to hail damage, drone footage often misses the most important details.

The Truth About Drone Inspections

🔍 Can a drone see granule loss?
Nope.
🖐 Can it feel subtle indentations in the shingle?
Definitely not.

Here’s what our expert explains in the video:

  • Hail damage often looks like wear and tear from above
  • Only a hands-on inspection can detect the soft spots, dents, and bruising
  • Visual-only assessments can mislead you—or your insurance adjuster

If you’re relying on drone photos alone, you might miss claim-worthy damage or delay needed repairs.

Why a Hands-On Inspection Wins Every Time

At Mr. GoodRoof, we believe in getting boots on the roof and hands on the shingles. Our free roof inspections go beyond what a drone can see:

  • Physical verification of hail impressions
  • Detection of granule loss and fiberglass exposure
  • Honest, detailed assessments of storm damage
  • Insurance-ready documentation

Schedule a Free Roof Inspection—No Drones Required

Don’t let drone footage give you a false sense of security. Let our team feel what the camera can’t see—and make sure your home is truly protected.

Galin and his team were wonderful to work with. They delivered above and beyond what I expected and now every time I pull into my driveway I see my beautiful roof and feel so much gratitude. 10/10 definitely recommend!

Jorge was phenomenal in his kindness and respect. His ability to repair our roof in Dickson County was superb. My wife is thankful for how easy it was to work with Mr. Goodroof and their staff. This is a high integrity and professional company as was witnessed by the professionalism of Jorge. Thank you!

The project was done and completed in a timely manner and they cleaned up after they finished a true sign of a professional crew. The sales was very responsive and worked with us to break down the prject cost into managable phrases it been pleasure working with Ryan and installation crew. We look forward to getting the other project underway in the future.

No guess work here! Devon Cox went up on my roof and identified areas for concern, proposed real solutions and produced a video demonstrating everything real time. Highly recommend!!
