Inspect Every Roof, from the Ridge to the Gutter

Add an automated review layer to every roof photo with Roboflow vision AI for roof inspection. Built for roofing contractors, insurers, property managers, and solar teams where every inspection used to mean a ladder, a harness, and an afternoon, storms bring thousands of claims at once, and two inspectors can grade the same roof differently.

Find the damage:

  • Detect missing, lifted, and cracked shingles, tiles, and panels, with a model trained on your own drone and aerial images.
  • Flag hail impact marks and wind damage, and separate storm damage from normal wear such as granule loss and blistering.
  • Find damaged flashing, vents, and gutters, cracks in membranes and tiles, and ponding, debris, and vegetation on flat and commercial roofs.

Map the roof:

  • Classify roof type and shape, such as gable, hip, or flat, and roof material, such as asphalt shingle, metal, tile, membrane, or slate.
  • Segment each roof facet and surface, and segment damaged areas pixel by pixel, so damage can be measured as a share of each facet.
  • Find skylights, vents, chimneys, and existing panels, and map usable roof area for solar design alongside solar panel inspection.

Act on it:

  • Rank roofs by condition across a portfolio or a storm area, so inspectors and crews go to the worst roofs first.
  • Export annotated images with each finding for claims, quotes, and inspection reports, so every roof is graded the same way.
  • Run the same models on drone flights, aerial imagery, and field photos, and extend them to building materials and facades.

Bring intelligence to every roof today. Get a graded, image-backed inspection without anyone climbing a ladder.

Frequently asked questions

What is roof inspection with Vision AI?

Roof inspection with Vision AI runs a trained computer vision model (opens in a new tab) on drone, aerial, and field photos of roofs to find damage such as missing shingles and hail marks, classify roof type and material, and segment each surface and damaged area. Every finding comes back with an annotated image.

What imagery does it work with?

Drone flights, aerial and satellite imagery, and photos taken on a phone from the ground or a ladder. Models are trained on your own images, so they learn the roof types, materials, and damage patterns in your region.

Can it measure damaged area and classify roof type?

Yes. Segmentation models outline each roof facet and each damaged area at the pixel level, so damage can be expressed as a share of the facet or, with known image scale, in square feet. Classification models label roof type and material for every roof.

Roboflow serves as the detection engine, and your inspection, claims, and roofing teams own the damage categories, grading rules, and every claim or repair decision.

Can it integrate with our claims, CRM, and reporting tools?

Yes. Roboflow sends findings, measurements, and annotated images over a REST API (opens in a new tab) or webhooks to claims systems, CRMs, and inspection reporting tools. After a storm, batch processing can run a whole portfolio of roof images at once.
