Service area

TwoBit Aerial is based in Bolivar, Missouri. Pricing includes travel for most jobs within 30-45 minutes of Bolivar, Missouri. Jobs farther out may include a travel charge based on distance, drive time, and scope.

  • Most straightforward local jobs fall inside the included travel range used by the published pricing.
  • Distance, drive time, and scope determine whether additional travel needs to be added.
  • Larger commercial, recurring, or multi-site scopes can still be priced cleanly without a rigid public fee table.

Pricing approach

Starting-at pricing fits simpler roof documentation jobs. Larger multi-building or specialty scopes are quoted by complexity.

  • From $275; final quote depends on property, timing, travel, and deliverable expectations.

Roof documentation that knows where its authority ends.

TwoBit Aerial keeps public deliverables framed as documentation, screening, planning support, and reference material.

FAA Part 107

Commercial operations start from a Part 107 baseline.

Documentation support

Overview, detail, and callout imagery support review without replacing a qualified hands-on inspection.

Context before detail

Selected close references remain connected to the wider property or asset so reviewers can orient quickly.

No technical determination

Imagery does not provide engineering, roofing, structural, utility, code, appraisal, or compliance conclusions.

Scope-dependent quotes

Final pricing depends on site size, access, travel, timing, and requested deliverables.

FAQ

Common questions before quoting.

Who uses drone roof inspection documentation?

Commercial property owners, property managers, roofing companies, documentation reviewers, and homeowners with a focused documentation need use it to review visible roof context and plan next steps.

Can roof thermal screening be added?

Yes, when site, roof material, weather, and timing conditions support a useful thermal screening. Thermal is scoped as screening support, not a definitive diagnosis.

What affects roof inspection pricing?

Pricing is affected by roof size, number of structures, site access, needed detail coverage, travel, thermal add-ons, and whether annotated or summary-ready deliverables are requested.
