Specialty Commercial Contractors is a partner company with Mayfield Thermography Consulting Services, Inc. and AITscan, Inc. We performed qualitative infrared thermo-graphic surveys of roof moisture on thousands of buildings. We brought together all the components that truly make us the state-of-the-art in the field of infrared thermography. Our deliverable product is the best on the market today. We use high-resolution infrared imagers, digital recording equipment, techniques that have been refined over the years and the attitude that we are going to obtain the best imagery possible and produce a professional report in a timely manner.

Advantages of Aerial IR imaging using fixed-wing aircraft
- High-angle and straight down (NADIR) infrared and visual images reduce reflections and capture large areas at once, making the imagery easier to analyze and the report less expensive to produce.
- Fixed-wing aerial operations are a more cost-effective platform to obtain imagery than rotor-wing, while reducing ferry times and vibrations.
- Since images are captured straight-down or ‘plan view’, the report is clear, concise and easy to understand because infrared images, visual images and AutoCAD® drawings are reconciled.
- Plan view imaging allows for accurate marking of areas of suspect roof moisture contamination. CAD drawings are made by drawing ‘over’ the captured visual and infrared image on the screen. The infrared, visual and AutoCAD® components can then be separated. If dimensional information is available, this creates a quantitative, scaled AutoCAD® drawing of the suspect roof moisture contamination on the roof. If dimensional information is not available, the drawings become scalable and easily updated at any time in the future once quantitative data is obtained.
- Access to multiple levels of the roof is never a problem.
- The printed AutoCAD® drawings can be used on the roof to paint areas of moisture contamination directly on the roof, if desired.
- The aerial infrared thermographer can wait for a good night for imaging, surveying many roofs under good conditions.
