Virtual Inspections

Virtual Inspections.

RoofLetters.com offers virtual roof inspections that capture the evidence you need, fast, without waiting on site schedules. Using a guided live video call and a structured photo set, we document conditions, verify code-path considerations, and deliver a stamped engineering letter designed for plan reviewers, adjusters, and owners.

02We Make It Easy

When virtual fits.

Use a virtual inspection when roof access is safe and available, timelines are tight, site logistics are difficult, or the file needs engineering documentation but not invasive testing. Ideal scenarios include storm event documentation, pre-bid condition checks, recover/re-cover feasibility, minor repair verification, and follow-up inspections to close redlines or claim requirements.

03What We Can Do Remotely

Documentation, without the drive.

Document visible damage and conditions
Evaluate repairability vs. replacement based on observed evidence
Review edge metal, flashings, penetrations, transitions, slopes, materials, and attachment indicators
Analyze equivalency/code pathways for re-roofs and recovers
Provide post-repair compliance confirmations, with adequate photo proof
04Use Your Phone

Technical requirements.

Getting set up for a virtual inspection is simple.

  • A stable data connection
  • Safe roof access
  • Clear photos in good light, including scale (coin or tape)
  • Geotagging enabled and accurate device time, if available
  • Drone imagery welcome when local rules and site conditions allow
05Deliverables & Turnaround

One letter, every question answered.

You’ll receive a signed and sealed engineering letter written to answer the specific AHJ/insurer questions, including a narrative of findings, code citations (with local amendments as applicable), repairability or method recommendation as warranted, and a photo appendix. Wet-signed originals are available on request.
