As predicted by many industry experts in and around the roofing industry, 2016 is indeed proving to be a significant time in the development of drone use for commercial purposes. And roofing contractors around the United States may start benefiting from it very soon, according to company officials at Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance.
In April, Tremco’s SkyBEAM unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) received the first-ever approval for nighttime commercial drone operation over United States soil from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Regulators also approved the Beachwood, Ohio-company’s request to operate UAVs during the day.
