Serving NYC & Long Island
Brooklyn
Brooklyn's building stock runs from attached brownstone blocks to waterfront industrial conversions and new towers downtown — four very different diagnostic problems inside one borough. We provide infrared roof inspection across every neighborhood listed below, using a FLIR E96 thermal camera and confirming each finding with a second instrument before it reaches your report.

Across Brooklyn
Brooklyn covers several distinct kinds of building, and each one fails differently. Here's what infrared roof inspection looks like in the ones we work in most.
Rowhouse roofs are small, flat, and almost always surrounded by neighbors. Water entering at a parapet or a shared party wall travels laterally, so the wet area on a thermal scan often sits over the building next door rather than the one reporting the leak.
Coastal roofs take wind uplift and driven rain from angles that inland roofs never see, so fastener and seam failures are common. Post-storm surveys also separate new saturation from older wet areas, which is the distinction that decides an insurance claim.
Large low-slope roof fields are where an infrared survey saves the most money, because saturation is usually confined to a fraction of the field even when the interior symptoms feel widespread. A moisture map turns a tear-off bid into a sectional repair.
Sloped residential roofs and the low-slope roofs on local commercial buildings behave differently, and both are scanned — the commercial roofs for trapped insulation moisture, the residential for ventilation and ice-dam damage patterns.
Coverage
Why us and not a plumber
A plumber who finds your leak also sells you the repair. A roofer who inspects your roof also quotes the replacement. That isn't dishonesty — it's structure, and it quietly shapes every finding. We are an independent diagnostic company: we do not perform repairs, we do not sell materials, and we take no referral fee from any contractor. The report is the entire product, so there is nothing for us to gain by finding more than is there.
We can't profit from the work we recommend, because we don't do the work. If your roof is 8% wet, the report says 8% — not "replace the field."
We accept nothing from contractors for sending work their way. Take our findings to your own plumber, roofer, or electrician, or put them out to bid.
Boards, managing agents, and insurance carriers treat an independent finding differently than an estimate from the company that wants the job.
Sometimes the answer is condensation, or a warm duct, or a neighbor's roof. We're paid the same either way, so we say so.
