Infrared Roof Inspection Explained: Seeing the Moisture You Can't
Thermal imaging finds trapped roof moisture years before it surfaces. How infrared inspections work and when your roof needs one.
The most destructive roof problems are the ones you cannot see: water trapped inside the roofing assembly, silently rotting decking and saturating insulation. Infrared roof inspection in Los Banos makes the invisible visible using thermal imaging — and it is the closest thing roofing has to an X-ray.

Common Questions
Does infrared work on shingle roofs?
It is most powerful on flat and low-slope membranes, but it can trace leak paths and insulation issues on steep-slope roofs as well.
Will it damage my roof?
No — thermal imaging is completely non-contact. Nothing touches your roof during the scan.
What conditions does the scan need?
A clear day-to-night temperature swing produces the strongest contrast. We schedule Los Banos scans when conditions will give the clearest readings.
