Roof & Property Surveys in Suffolk & East Anglia
Drone Surveys and Roof Inspections
Specialist Aerial Roof Inspections & Surveys across Suffolk & East Anglia
We have been commercially rated as a drone operator since 2016 and we specialise in roof inspections and aerial surveys for houses, commercial units, and industrial buildings. Working closely with chartered surveyors, property managers, and landlords across Ipswich, Woodbridge, Suffolk, and London, we provide a safe, efficient, and cost-effective solution for inspecting hard-to-reach areas. Using high-resolution aerial photography and 4K video, we help identify hidden issues such as leaks, damaged roofing, slipped tiles, blocked guttering, and structural defects before they escalate into costly repairs.
Whether you require a one-off inspection or a regular maintenance survey, our detailed condition reports provide valuable insight to support property sales, lease agreements, and ongoing maintenance plans.
Why Drone Roof Inspections?
Traditional roof inspections often require scaffolding, ladders, or cherry pickers, which can be costly, time-consuming, and potentially hazardous. Our drone roof surveys provide a far safer and more efficient alternative, delivering detailed aerial images and video footage without the need for manual access. By using specialist drones and high-resolution cameras, we can carry out inspections with minimal disruption, ensuring that every detail is captured for accurate assessments. This approach is particularly beneficial for properties with steep roofs, difficult access points, or fragile structures, where traditional methods would be impractical or unsafe.
Commercial & Industrial Roof Surveys in Suffolk & London
For chartered surveyors, landlords, and commercial property managers, we offer comprehensive drone roof inspections for a variety of purposes, including pre-lease condition surveys, pre-sale inspections, and ongoing maintenance assessments. Before a new tenant signs a lease or a property is put on the market, it is crucial to assess the condition of the roof, drainage systems, and overall structure to prevent unexpected repair costs. Our drone surveys provide an efficient and cost-effective way to document a building’s condition, ensuring that any potential issues, such as roof deterioration, structural weaknesses, or poor drainage, are identified before they become major problems.
Ideal for Home Owners & Property Managers
Our drone roof surveys are ideal for homeowners and property managers who need a clear and detailed assessment of a property’s condition. We inspect chimney stacks, flat roofs, guttering, slates, tiles, and any visible signs of water ingress, ensuring that potential problems are identified early. This is particularly useful for detecting loose or missing tiles, cracked leadwork, or blocked drainage systems, which, if left unresolved, could lead to serious structural damage. By providing high-resolution images and video footage, we enable homeowners to make informed decisions about maintenance and repairs without the need for expensive scaffolding or risky manual inspections.
Drone Surveys in Restricted Locations
As fully CAA-licensed drone operators, we are authorised to conduct aerial surveys in all locations, including built-up areas, conservation zones, and complex urban environments. However, certain sites, such as airports, nuclear facilities, and restricted areas in central London, require additional permissions and pre-planning before a survey can take place. In these instances, we handle all the necessary applications and regulatory approvals, though some locations may require up to three weeks of advance planning to ensure full compliance with aviation and safety regulations.
Our Drones
We operate a fleet of high-performance drones, each suited to different surveying needs and capable of functioning in a range of weather conditions. Our drones can operate in winds of up to 50km/h, ensuring reliable performance even in less-than-ideal circumstances. Whether inspecting large industrial roofs, heritage buildings, or residential properties, our advanced drone technology allows us to capture exceptionally detailed imagery, providing the clarity needed for thorough analysis and professional reporting.
