What a thermal drone inspection typically costs
We don't run a fixed rate card — pricing depends on your property, roof type, and location. The ranges below reflect general industry-reported figures, not a guaranteed quote. Request an inspection and we'll confirm a firm number for your specific property.
Residential Insulation Inspection
Typically priced in the low hundreds of dollars per inspection
Single-family homes, condos, and small multi-family properties. Scales with roofline size and attic complexity.
Pre-Purchase Inspection
Similar range to a residential scan, sometimes bundled with expedited turnaround
Priced similarly to a standard insulation scan, with rush turnaround options available for closing timelines.
Commercial Roof Moisture Survey
Often several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on roof size
Smaller commercial buildings typically fall toward the lower end; larger or more complex roofs scale up. Large roofs are often scoped on a per-square-foot basis.
Commercial Roof Condition Assessment
Quoted per portfolio, based on total roof square footage and site count
Recurring or multi-building work is packaged rather than priced per individual site — ask about portfolio pricing.
Figures above are general industry-reported ranges, provided for planning purposes only — not a quote for your property.
Six factors shape every quote
Property or roof size
More square footage means a longer flight and more imagery to review and annotate.
Roof complexity
Multiple roof planes, dormers, parapets, and HVAC penetrations add flight and analysis time.
Roof type & scan type
A flat/low-slope roof moisture survey (flown at night) is scoped differently than a daytime insulation scan.
Travel distance
Dispatch distance from the nearest available certified pilot factors into scheduling and total cost.
Number of buildings
Multi-site portfolio work is typically quoted as a package rather than per building.
Turnaround needed
Standard delivery runs 24-48 hours; expedited turnaround may be available for tight timelines, such as a closing date.
