Building Stock Profile
Tallahassee's building stock includes an estimated 20+ condominium and apartment buildings above three stories, plus approximately 400+ commercial structures. The predominant construction era is 1960s-2000s with state government buildings and university campus, with facades primarily consisting of brick veneer, reinforced concrete, stucco, precast concrete. As Florida's capital, Tallahassee's government buildings and university campus structures have heightened safety requirements — drone inspection supports the state's own compliance with the building safety standards it legislates.
Regulatory Requirements
Florida's SB-4D legislation requires milestone structural inspections for buildings 3+ stories at 30 years from the Certificate of Occupancy, with subsequent inspections every 10 years. An estimated 15+ buildings in Tallahassee are approaching or have passed this threshold.

Our Process
How Roof Works in Tallahassee
From initial consultation to PE-certified report delivery — here is how we execute roof inspection for Leon County properties.
Consultation & Planning
We assess your Tallahassee building's specifics — height, facade materials, access constraints, and local airspace requirements. A detailed flight plan is created and all FAA authorizations secured.
Drone Data Capture
FAA Part 107 certified pilots deploy commercial drones equipped with 50MP cameras to systematically capture your building's exterior surfaces. A typical inspection flight takes 4-8 hours depending on building size.
AI Analysis & Engineering Review
Captured imagery is processed through our AI defect detection pipeline, classifying up to 20 defect types with GPS coordinates. A Florida-licensed Professional Engineer reviews the findings and prepares the inspection report.
Report Delivery & Action Plan
Your PE-certified report is delivered promptly. It includes high-resolution imagery, AI defect classifications, repair priorities, and cost estimates — everything Leon County engineers and property managers need to take action.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does freeze/thaw affect North Florida roofs?
Occasional freezing temperatures can damage roof membranes and flashings, particularly if moisture has infiltrated. Our inspections identify these vulnerabilities.
When is the best time to inspect North Florida roofs?
Late winter or early spring is ideal — it captures any damage from freeze events while also establishing a baseline before storm season. Fall inspections document post-season conditions. We recommend at least one annual inspection.
Can your roof inspection identify drainage problems?
Yes. Our orthomosaic mapping reveals ponding areas, blocked drains, and improper slope conditions across the entire roof surface. These drainage issues are among the leading causes of premature roof failure in North Florida's heavy-rainfall environment.
Can drone roof inspection detect active leaks?
Our FLIR thermal sensors detect moisture trapped beneath the roof membrane, which often indicates active or recent leaks. Thermal anomalies are GPS-referenced so roofers can locate the exact area for repair.
What types of roofing systems can you inspect?
We inspect flat TPO/EPDM/PVC membranes, built-up roofing, modified bitumen, standing seam metal, tile, shingle, and hybrid systems. Our AI is trained on defect patterns specific to each system.
