Thermal Roofing Documentation Pricing Guide

Aerial Visual & Thermal Roof Observation

Cox Aerial Solutions LLC provides aerial thermal and visual documentation of roof areas showing apparent temperature differences, surface irregularities, drainage concerns, visible damage, or other conditions that may warrant additional evaluation. Thermal patterns alone do not confirm moisture intrusion, insulation failure, roof leakage, structural damage, or the need for repair.

Cox Aerial Solutions LLC is not acting as a roofing contractor, building inspector, engineer, moisture-testing laboratory, or insurance adjuster. Final conclusions regarding moisture, roof condition, code compliance, repair requirements, warranty coverage, or insurance eligibility must be made by appropriately qualified professionals.

Inspection limitations

Cox Aerial Solutions LLC provides remote, non-destructive aerial observations and informational deliverables based on conditions visible to the selected sensors during the inspection period. Services do not constitute professional engineering, electrical contracting, roofing contracting, code certification, structural certification, land surveying, repair instruction, or a guarantee that every defect or hazard will be detected. Final severity, cause, maintenance action, repair, shutdown, switching, and engineering decisions remain with qualified customer personnel.
