On January 3, 2025, a comprehensive drone roof inspection was conducted on a residential property located on Passiflora Avenue in Encinitas, California, by the professional roofing contractor, Richardson Roofing. Utilizing advanced drone technology, the inspection revealed several significant construction defects that require attention to ensure the longevity and performance of the roof.
The primary roofing system features a one-piece clay tile design, complemented by two-piece clay tile at the eaves. Despite the roof being relatively new, the installation method raises concerns about its durability. It is anticipated that the roof will only last approximately ten years due to the flawed installation techniques employed, which fail to meet industry standards.
In addition to the main roof issues, the inspection identified a critical problem with the flat roof located at the back of the property. It was noted that asphalt shingles were improperly installed on this flat area, which is not suitable for such roofing material. Immediate replacement of the flat roof is necessary to prevent potential water damage and additional problems that could arise from inadequate drainage and sealing.
In summary, the drone roof inspection by Richardson Roofing has highlighted critical areas that need to be addressed, particularly the replacement of the flat roof and further evaluation of the main roof’s installation. Homeowners are advised to engage with a qualified roofing contractor to correct these defects promptly to maintain the integrity and safety of their home.
