See What Storms Leave Behind, Before It Reaches Inside Your Home

My name is Brian Nagorski, and I offer professional drone roof inspection services in Minnesota for homeowners who want real answers about the condition of their roof. By using advanced aerial technology, I pinpoint hidden issues before ever setting up a ladder.

Minnesota weather is hard on roofs. Hailstorms roll through the Twin Cities, straight-line winds tear across the southern suburbs, and heavy snow loads push down on shingles all winter long.

The problem is that most of the damage those storms leave behind is not visible from the ground or even from a ladder. Cracked shingles, compromised flashing, moisture trapped under the surface, and heat escaping through weak spots in your roof can all go undetected for months until the damage shows up inside your home.

That is exactly why drone roof inspections in Minnesota have become the smarter choice for homeowners after a storm.

Using a FAA Part 107 certified drone loaded with thermal imaging cameras, I perform roof inspections that cover every inch of your roof safely, accurately, and efficiently. Thermal drone inspection technology allows me to detect hail damage, wind damage, moisture intrusion, and heat loss that standard visual inspections simply cannot find.

Every inspection comes with a detailed report formatted specifically for insurance adjusters, delivered within 24 to 48 hours. I proudly serve Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Eagan, Burnsville, Bloomington, Lakeville, Faribault, and communities throughout Minnesota.

What We Inspect

What Our Thermal Drone Scans Detect

Thermal imaging and FAA certified drone technology find what a standard ladder inspection never could.

Thermal Roof Inspection

Thermal roof inspection is the most accurate way to find damage that a standard visual inspection will never catch. Using professional grade thermal imaging cameras mounted on my FAA Part 107 certified drone, I scan your entire roof surface for temperature variations that reveal hidden moisture, heat loss, and structural weak spots beneath the shingles.

Minnesota homeowners are especially vulnerable after freeze and thaw cycles that force water into tiny cracks and refreeze, expanding damage season after season. My thermal drone inspection services in Minnesota give you documented proof of exactly what is happening on your roof before that hidden damage becomes a costly interior problem.

Hail Damage Inspection

Hail damage is one of the most underreported roof problems in Minnesota because it rarely looks serious from the ground. A storm that drops golf ball sized hail over Burnsville or Bloomington can leave hundreds of impact points across your shingles that weaken the surface, crack the granule coating, and open the door to moisture intrusion over time.

My drone roof inspection in Minnesota identifies every impact point across your entire roof surface with precision that a standard visual inspection simply cannot match. Every hail damage report I deliver is formatted specifically for your insurance adjuster, giving you the documented evidence you need to support a successful claim from day one.

Wind Damage Inspection

Minnesota windstorms can lift, curl, and separate shingles in ways that are nearly impossible to spot from the ground. From Lakeville to Minneapolis, straight-line winds and severe thunderstorm gusts regularly push past 60 miles per hour, peeling back flashing, loosening ridge caps, and creating gaps that let water drive straight into your roof deck.

Using drone roof inspections in Minnesota, I can fly the full perimeter and surface of your roof, capturing detailed footage of every lifted shingle, separated seam, and damaged flashing point. You get a complete wind damage report formatted for your insurance adjuster and delivered within 24 to 48 hours of your inspection.

Moisture Detection

Moisture is the silent destroyer of Minnesota roofs. By the time water damage shows up on your ceiling or walls, it has already been spreading through your roof deck, insulation, and framing for weeks or months. The freeze and thaw cycles that Minnesota winters are known for accelerate that process dramatically, forcing trapped moisture deeper into your roof structure with every temperature swing.

My thermal drone inspection in Minnesota detects moisture intrusion at the source before it reaches the inside of your home. The thermal imaging camera identifies temperature differences caused by wet materials beneath the surface, giving you a precise moisture map of your entire roof with no invasive testing, significantly reducing the need for extensive foot traffic on your shingles.

Heat Loss Assessment

Minnesota winters are brutal on energy bills. If your home is losing heat through the roof, you are paying for it every single month from November through March without even knowing it. Poor insulation, damaged shingles, compromised seals around vents and chimneys, and aging roofing materials all create thermal weak spots where your heated air escapes directly into the cold Minnesota sky.

My roof inspections with a drone in Minnesota use thermal imaging technology to map exactly where heat is escaping from your roof surface. The results give you clear, documented evidence to share with your contractor or insurance provider, helping you prioritize repairs that will reduce your energy costs and protect your home through every Minnesota winter ahead.

The Deliverable

Every Inspection Comes With an Insurance-Ready Report

Filing a roof insurance claim without proper documentation is one of the most common reasons homeowners get underpaid or denied. A basic phone photo does not meet the standard adjusters need. Every inspection I deliver is built around what actually gets claims approved, and it lands in your inbox within 24 to 48 hours.

Thermal Imaging Findings

Documented temperature data revealing hidden moisture, heat loss, and weak spots beneath the surface.

High-Resolution Footage

Clear aerial imagery of every impact point, lifted shingle, and damaged flashing across the full roof.

Damage Mapping

Every issue pinpointed and located on your roof so your adjuster sees exactly where the damage is.

Commercial Inspections

Commercial Roof Inspections, No Shutdown Required

From strip malls and warehouse rooftops to large commercial buildings and flat membrane systems, drone thermal inspection is one of the most efficient and cost-effective ways to assess a commercial roof without shutting down operations or sending workers onto a large elevated surface.

Commercial roofs are especially vulnerable to moisture intrusion and heat loss at scale. A single undetected water pocket on a flat EPDM or TPO roof can spread across thousands of square feet before it becomes visible. My thermal drone scan covers the entire roof surface in a single flight, identifying problem areas with precision before they escalate into a major repair or replacement.
