Can you find problems with your roof using an IR camera? You most definitely can! When the sun shines and hits your roof, if you have any areas that have a lot of moisture trapped in it, these areas will retain the heat for longer. A scan will reveal where there is water underneath your roof. Water can cause wood to rot and metal to rust, leading to serious structural damage. If your insulation gets wet, this will also lessen its effectiveness, causing you to lose more heat. Having your roof scanned will give you the opportunity to spot where there is water gathering and let you focus your repair efforts on that area. It might even give you the opportunity to spot where the leak is located in the first place. This method can save you a lot of money, especially if you were considering replacing your whole roof, when in reality, only a few spots need repairing for your roof to be fully functional once again.
