Single Visit · No Contract
Photograph it before you cover it.
Once a house is dried in, the flashing, valleys and wall penetrations disappear under shingles and siding and stay hidden until something leaks. One flight, the week you dry in, and the record exists for the next ten years.

The Window
There is about a week where this is easy.
Roof is on, wrap is up, windows are set, siding has not started. For a few days everything that will spend the next decade hidden is still in plain view from above.
After that, producing a record of it means a ladder, a scaffold, or an argument.

Delivered dated, geotagged and unaltered, with a capture log, and held for ten years.
Close range means three feet off a valley. That is not something a superintendent does from a ladder, and it is the one capture on a residential job that only a drone produces safely.
It is a photographic record of what was visible on that date — not an inspection, not an assessment, and not an opinion about whether anything is correct. It is the picture, taken on the day, by someone other than you.
Who This Is For
Three people buy this flight.
Builders
Who want a defined record at the single highest-risk moment of the job without committing to a monthly plan.
Owners and developers
Who want an independent set of eyes on the envelope before it is covered.
Anyone already in a disagreement
About what got built, who needs the current condition on record with a date attached.
Builders running several homes
Who should probably be on a plan instead — the dry-in flight is included in Build Record Plus.
Running more than one house at a time? Build Record Plus includes this flight and costs less than buying it per house.
One Decision, No Contract
$495, one visit, and the images are yours.
Credited in full toward the first month if you start any recurring documentation plan — residential or commercial — within 30 days of the flight. It is also included at no additional cost in Build Record Plus.
Clearpoint Aerial provides visual documentation services only. Deliverables are photographic and video records of site conditions visible on the date of capture. They are not land surveys, engineering assessments, or home inspections, and are not a substitute for the services of a licensed surveyor, engineer, or inspector.
