Roof Surveys
Drone Roof Surveys
A traditional roof survey involves a close inspection of your roof by our RICS-qualified surveyors, using over 35 years of expertise to identify current and potential defects. From assessing tiles, chimneys and gutters, to checking ventilation and drainage, we provide a detailed, independent report that highlights the life expectancy of your roof, repair priorities and estimated costs. This impartial guidance helps homeowners, buyers, and landlords to avoid unnecessary expense and ensures peace of mind when buying or maintaining a property.
For areas that are difficult, unsafe or expensive to access, we also offer CAA-approved Drone Roof Surveys. Using the latest UAV technology under the supervision of RICS-certified surveyors, we capture high-resolution aerial imagery and video of your roof. This allows us to inspect every angle (including hidden areas such as flat roofs, parapets, and chimneys) quickly, safely and cost-effectively. Drone surveys can also support insurance claims, monitor previous works, and help plan preventative maintenance. With our completely independent advice, you’ll gain a full and accurate picture of your roof’s condition.
