  • Field shingle condition and granule coverage
  • Flashing at chimneys, vents, and penetrations
  • Gutters, downspouts, and drainage paths
  • Moss, algae, debris, and ponding water

El Niño Preparedness

With El Niño weather patterns bringing increased rainfall and wind to Southern California, now is the time to assess your roof's condition before storm season arrives. A Pacific-Drone aerial inspection can identify vulnerabilities — loose flashing, granule loss, moss buildup — before they become costly leaks. Don't wait for the first storm to find out your roof needs attention.
