Some of the most important parts of a home are the hardest — and least safe — to reach. As an FAA-certified Remote Pilot, Dawson captures close, detailed drone views of the roof and upper exterior, at a very reasonable rate.
As an FAA-certified Remote Pilot, Dawson uses a drone to capture close, detailed photos of the roof and other hard-to-reach exterior areas. It's especially valuable on steep, high, or fragile roofs where walking the surface isn't safe — or even possible.
The roof is one of the most expensive components of a home, and one of the toughest to evaluate up close. Drone photography brings the roofline, chimney, and upper exterior into clear view, giving you documentation you can actually see rather than a report you have to take on faith.
Dawson provides aerial drone and roof photography throughout Sherman, Denison, and all of North Texas and Southern Oklahoma, at a very reasonable rate. Licensed in both Texas (TREC #25341) and Oklahoma (#70002742), he delivers clear images and plain-language notes — usually within 24 hours.
A drone flight brings the roof and upper exterior into close, safe view — areas that are otherwise hard to document.
Shingles, coverings, and the overall condition of the roof, captured from above.
Close views of the chimney, flashing, and roof penetrations where leaks begin.
Gutters, fascia, and high exterior areas that are difficult to see from the ground.
Steep, high, or fragile roofs documented without the risk of walking them.
The roof protects everything beneath it — and it's also one of the most expensive components to repair or replace. Yet it's frequently the hardest part of a home to inspect closely and safely.
Steep pitches, high roofs, wet or fragile surfaces, and delicate materials can't always be walked. A drone gets a camera right up to the roofline safely, capturing detail that a view from the ground simply can't match.
The result is clear, close-up documentation you can actually see — giving you and any roofing professional a real look at the roof's condition before you buy, at a very reasonable rate.
Your aerial drone photography is delivered with clear images and plain-language notes — usually within 24 hours.

It's the use of a drone to capture close, detailed photos of a home's roof and hard-to-reach exterior areas. As an FAA-certified Remote Pilot, Dawson safely flies the drone to document the roof surface, chimney, flashing, gutters, and upper exterior.
Some roofs simply can't be walked safely — steep pitches, tall structures, wet surfaces, or fragile materials like tile and slate. A drone gets a camera close to those areas without the risk, and often captures more detail than a ground-level look.
It complements it. Drone photography provides close, documented views of areas that are otherwise inaccessible or unsafe, so you get a clearer picture of the roof and upper exterior than a ground-based view alone can offer.
Aerial drone and roof photography is offered at a very reasonable rate. Because it varies with the property, just give us a call for a quote — you can also see the pricing page for details.
