What does “claim-verifiable evidence” mean?

It means photo and condition documentation that a third party (adjuster, carrier, consultant) can verify without relying on contractor interpretation—paired with a written scope and clear recommendation.

Do you repair or replace roofs?

We inspect first, document conditions, and recommend repair when appropriate—replacement only when necessary—based on evidence and scope requirements.

Do you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes. We support storm-damage claims by producing evidence-forward documentation and a written scope aligned to common estimating workflows, helping the claim process stay clear and verifiable.

Do you use FAA Part 107 drone documentation?

Yes. FAA Part 107 aerial documentation can be used when roof pitch, height, access limitations, or storm conditions make traditional documentation less safe or less efficient.

Are you affiliated with NRCA and GARCA?

Inspector Roofing and Restoration is an NRCA member and a GARCA Voluntary Licensed Contractor by choice. GARCA License #C8467440 can be publicly verified through our published profile and certificate.
