Aerial Photographer in Scottsdale, AZ
Sometimes the best way to see what’s going on with your roof — is from above. Our FAA-certified drone operators capture high-resolution photos, videos, and thermal scans to spot leaks, ponding, or heat loss areas that can’t be seen from the ground.
Whether you’re a homeowner, property manager, or insurance adjuster, Sky Shield’s aerial team delivers clear, accurate roof condition reports without anyone having to step on your roof.

Why Scottsdale Clients Use Drone Roof Imaging
Climbing roofs is risky — and often not even needed. Drone imagery gives precise measurements and shows issues like pooling water, cracked tiles, or poor drainage patterns in seconds. For big HOA complexes or commercial buildings, it’s a must-have.
We often combine drone footage with thermal scans — ideal after storms or before major re-roof projects to verify what’s really happening under the surface.
