Yeah, that's exactly it... we went through the same transition in our crew. Using drones for the initial sweep lets you identify broad patterns quickly, but I always schedule time to climb up and touch the critical areas. Found that moisture meters and thermal cams from the drone can flag spots, but you still need to feel the shingle grit or check flashings by hand. That blend cuts down on missed details and keeps the job from feeling too sterile, you know? Lets you catch those subtle signs that tech might overlook.
