Thermal Imaging Inspection in Bloomington, IL
Some roof problems don’t show up on the surface — not until they’ve already gotten bad. We use infrared to scan for temperature anomalies, which basically means we can see moisture or insulation problems hiding under the roof without cutting into anything. Real data before you’ve even got a visible leak.
Local Roofing Conditions
Bloomington winters bring ice dams along the eaves, and by summer it’s hail chewing up shingles in neighborhoods near ISU and out along Veterans Parkway. A thermal scan catches moisture trapped under shingles or membranes before it turns into deck rot — that’s really the whole point of doing it this way instead of waiting for a stain to show up. Anything over 100 square feet needs a permit, and we handle that filing for McLean County ourselves.
What the Scan Actually Involves
We check the exterior and the attic, using infrared cameras that pick out the cooler, wet spots against the warmer dry ones around them. Most people book this after they’ve noticed granule loss in the gutters, a ceiling that’s started to sag a little, or a heating bill that spiked out of nowhere in January. Catch it early enough and you skip the mold and structural decay altogether — which, honestly, we see a lot in the older ranch homes around the 61704 zip.
