Aerial Inspections, LLC — FAA-Certified Drone Operations

Inspect Smarter. Save Taxes. Stay Safe.


General Questions

What areas do you serve?

We proudly serve all of Northeast Ohio, including Stark, Summit, Portage, and surrounding counties.
For commercial and industrial clients, we can travel statewide by arrangement.


Who performs the inspections?

All missions are conducted by FAA Part 107–certified drone pilots, trained in airspace safety, data security, and insurance documentation.
Our operations are fully insured for your protection.


How long does an inspection take?

Most residential missions take 20–40 minutes, depending on property size and complexity.
You’ll receive your finalized report and imagery within 3–5 business days.


What if the weather is bad?

Safety always comes first.
We monitor weather and FAA advisories closely. If conditions prevent flight, we’ll reschedule at no cost — typically within 48 hours of clear skies.


Insurance & Documentation

Can my insurance company use your report?

Yes.
Our imagery and reports are insurance-grade, meaning they meet the documentation standards most adjusters require for storm, fire, or property damage claims.
Clients often find this eliminates disputes and accelerates payouts.


Do you handle before-and-after inspections for contractors?

Absolutely.
Our Before/After Documentation Package provides time-stamped visuals of completed repairs, cleanings, or upgrades — ideal for roofing, solar, and exterior work.


Is this service tax-deductible?

Yes — for most businesses, rental property owners, and HOAs.
Per IRS Publication 535, aerial inspections qualify as ordinary and necessary business expenses.
Our invoices and reports are formatted for CPA and IRS documentation requirements.

💡 Always confirm with your accountant for your specific situation.


Safety & Compliance

Are you insured?

Yes.
Aerial Inspections, LLC carries full liability coverage for both operations and equipment.
Copies of our COI are available upon request for property managers and HOAs.


Do you need permission to fly over my property?

Yes — and we always get it.
We obtain FAA airspace authorization when required and never fly over uninvolved properties or people without consent.


Can you fly near airports or restricted zones?

In most cases, yes — with proper clearance.
Our team uses LAANC (Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability) to request temporary flight authorization for controlled airspace.


Pricing & Retainers

How much does an inspection cost?

Residential inspections start at $249, and commercial missions at $399.
Pricing depends on property size, location, and any add-on services (like thermal or 3D mapping).


Do you offer group discounts?

Yes — we provide up to 40% off for neighborhoods, HOAs, and multi-site businesses that book together.
Each client still receives their own individual report.


How do retainers work?

Our retainers let clients prepay for discounted annual inspections — locking in priority scheduling and turning the expense into a deductible business cost.
It’s ideal for commercial clients, HOAs, and property investors who need consistent documentation.


Technical Questions

What kind of drone do you use?

We use professional-grade drones equipped with 4K optical and thermal imaging sensors.
They’re capable of detailed roof, façade, and structural assessments without contact or risk.


How is my data stored and shared?

All images and reports are stored in encrypted cloud folders.
Clients receive private links to download files directly.
We never sell or share client data.
