Quarterly drone inspections with thermal imaging. Post-storm flyby within 72 hours of any named storm in your zip. Insurance-ready documentation. Built for homeowners who'd rather know early than pay later.
Most roof failures don't start as failures — they start as small lifted shingles after a windy afternoon, or granular wear under a tree limb, or flashing pulled loose by ice. Caught at year zero, the fix is a single-day visit. Ignored for two years, the same problem becomes deck rot, drywall damage, and a five-figure repair. Watchtower closes that gap.
Drone time scales with roof area, so pricing does too. If you don't know your roof's square footage, estimate it from your home — average residential roof is about 1.3x the home's footprint.
Older roofs and exposed roofs gain the most from quarterly monitoring. Newer protected roofs may only need annual.
Updates live as inputs change. Both tiers include the post-storm flyby guarantee.
Based on your age + condition + exposure. Real-world catch-early numbers from the industry are wide bands because every roof is different; we use conservative midpoints.

When a named storm passes through your zip code, Watchtower clients automatically get scheduled for a flyby within 72 hours. If there's damage, the report is formatted for insurance use — which on average boosts claim payouts by 15-30% because the adjuster sees independent pre-claim documentation. If there's no damage, you have peace of mind and a baseline photo set for next time.
We'll fly your roof once, send you the photographic report, and walk you through what we found. If you like it, we set up the subscription. If you don't, you keep the report — no charge, no card on file.
We never share your info. You'll hear from a Watchtower scheduler within 1 business day. Free flybys are subject to service-area availability, FAA Part 107 airspace rules, and weather.
About the pricing. Prices shown are estimates based on your inputs and may be adjusted after a physical site survey if your roof differs meaningfully from the form. Drone inspection availability is subject to FAA Part 107 commercial-drone regulations, local airspace restrictions, and weather. Post-storm 72-hour response is best-effort and subject to safety conditions following the event. Watchtower is a Benefitra service product — Benefitra is a licensed insurance brokerage; drone inspection services are coordinated through certified Part 107 pilots and do not constitute structural engineering or formal insurance adjustment.
