After the storm: an organized record of what is visible, fast

When severe weather moves through, the first question is “what does the roof look like now?” Storm documentation captures timely aerial imagery of visible roof and exterior conditions and organizes it into a dated record you can share with your roofing contractor or the licensed professionals handling your claim.

Who it's for

Storm Documentation fits when…

  • Homeowners who want a visual record before repairs begin
  • Property owners coordinating with a roofing contractor after a storm
  • Owners working with licensed insurance professionals who need organized imagery
  • Property managers checking multiple buildings after severe weather
  • Anyone who wants dated documentation while conditions are still fresh

Choose this in the days after hail, high wind, or severe weather — when you need a clear dated record of visible conditions and organized imagery to share with the professionals who will make the actual assessments.

Process

How it runs

  1. Submit the property as soon as practical

    After a storm, demand rises quickly. Send the address and a short description of what happened; we prioritize scheduling as weather and airspace allow.

  2. Safety and airspace review

    Post-storm conditions can include damaged trees, downed lines, and temporary flight restrictions. We confirm the site can be flown safely and legally first.

  3. The documentation flight

    We capture the full roof, elevations, and any specific areas you flag — without anyone walking a potentially compromised roof.

  4. Organized delivery

    Imagery is labeled by section, dated, and delivered through a secure link so it is simple to forward to your contractor or claims professional.

FAQ

Storm questions

Can I send your documentation to my insurance company?

The deliverables are yours, and many customers share them with their insurer or the licensed professionals handling their claim. Keep in mind the report records visible conditions — it does not establish coverage, and insurers make their own determinations through their own processes.

How soon after a storm can you fly?

As soon as weather, site safety, and airspace allow — sometimes that is the next clear day, sometimes longer after widespread events when temporary flight restrictions or high demand are in effect. Submitting your request early helps.

Will the photos show whether I have hail damage?

The imagery shows visible surface conditions in high resolution. Determining whether those conditions are hail damage — and what should be done about it — is a judgment for a licensed roofing contractor or the professionals evaluating your claim.

Should I document before or after temporary repairs?

Before, when it is safe and practical — a record of conditions prior to tarping preserves the clearest picture. We can also return after repairs for a completion record. If safety requires immediate tarping, do not wait for us.
