Why use a drone to inspect a tile roof?

Walking on a clay or concrete tile roof can crack the tiles you're trying to assess. Even an experienced installer adds wear with every step. We use drones to inspect from every angle — eaves, ridges, valleys, flashing — without putting weight on the roof itself. You get a thorough assessment, your roof stays intact, and we can show you exactly what we found on the inspection footage.

When should I get my roof inspected before monsoon season?

The best time is late spring — April through early June. Inspecting before the first storms means we can catch and repair weak spots, missing tiles, sealant cracks, or flashing issues while the weather's still calm. Waiting until July, when storms are already rolling through, often turns a small repair into a leak emergency. A pre-monsoon inspection takes about an hour and gives you a clear picture of where your roof stands.

How long does a tile roof last in Tucson?

A properly installed tile roof in Tucson can last 50+ years for the tiles themselves, though the underlayment beneath typically needs replacement every 20–25 years. The harsh desert sun, monsoon rain cycles, and dramatic temperature swings all wear the underlayment faster than the visible tiles. We've inspected hundreds of Tucson tile roofs where the tiles are still perfect but the underlayment has failed — that's when a re-roof becomes necessary, even though the tiles look fine.

Do you handle storm damage and roof repairs?

Yes — particularly during and after monsoon season. We come out, do a drone inspection to identify all damage (visible and hidden), and give you a clear written assessment. If you're working with insurance, we provide documentation that supports the claim, but we don't push or oversell repairs you don't actually need. Our goal is to fix what's broken and leave the rest of your roof alone.

What areas around Tucson do you serve?

Most of Pima County and parts of Cochise County — Tucson, Marana, Sahuarita, Sierra Vista, and the towns in between. If your area isn't on the list, give us a call. We may still cover it, especially for larger jobs.

In short

Commercial roofing in Catalina (the town along Oracle Road north of Oro Valley) is concentrated on light commercial along the Oracle Road corridor — small retail, restaurants, service buildings, and the occasional office. Most are TPO single-ply or modified bitumen on smaller footprints (3,000–10,000 sq ft). Distinct from Catalina Foothills (south of Oro Valley near Sabino Canyon) — different geography, different commercial character. Pima County unincorporated permits.

Why this work, here

Commercial in Catalina is its own thing.

Field notes —

Catalina commercial work concentrates along the Oracle Road corridor north of Oro Valley — light commercial supporting the SE Pinal commercial market. Three contexts shape the work. First, light commercial along Oracle Road — small retail, convenience commercial, restaurants, and service tenants. Most on 3,000–8,000 sq ft footprints with TPO single-ply. Second, service and office buildings — small medical and dental practices, real estate offices, professional services, auto service, repair shops scattered along the corridor. Third, the occasional commercial structure toward Oracle Junction at the northern edge of the corridor and the rural commercial along Charouleau Gap edges. Distinct from Catalina Foothills commercial work in every way that matters — different geography (north of Oro Valley vs south near Sabino Canyon), different commercial profile (Oracle Road light commercial vs Foothills higher-end Skyline / Sunrise / La Encantada retail). The names cause regular confusion. Catalina is unincorporated Pima County — commercial permits typically issue in 5–10 business days. Commercial properties along the eastern edge that border Catalina State Park or the Catalina Mountains foothills are in WUI fire zones; Class A ember-resistant systems are our default for those addresses.
