When a company inspects your roof with a drone, it’s fair to ask who’s flying it. At Northpoint Roofing, the answer is an FAA-certified drone pilot. That detail matters more than it sounds — and here’s why it’s good news for homeowners in Middle Tennessee and North Georgia.
What Does FAA-Certified Mean?
The FAA is the federal agency that runs U.S. airspace. To fly a drone for paid work, a pilot must earn a license called the Part 107 certificate. That means passing an exam on airspace rules, safety, and flight. In short, a certified pilot is trained and approved to fly drones the right way.
Why It Matters for Your Roof
Using a certified pilot isn’t just a technicality. It affects your inspection in a few real ways:
- Safety. A trained pilot flies safely, which protects your home, your yard, and the people nearby.
- It’s the law. Flying a drone for business without a license is against FAA rules. A certified pilot keeps the work above board.
- Better results. Skill shows in the images. A trained pilot captures clear, steady photos of your roof, which leads to a more accurate inspection.
It Protects You, Too
There’s a homeowner angle here as well. If an uncertified pilot flies the inspection and something goes wrong, you could get caught up in the problem. Hiring a company that uses certified pilots keeps the whole process safe and above board — one less thing for you to worry about.
