Inspections
Drone Roof Surveys Of Facades, Roofs & Exteriors
When it comes to assessing the condition of roofs on properties or other high-rise structures, traditional methods often fall short.
​
These types of buildings usually have limited access to the roof, making it difficult and hazardous for inspectors to carry out a thorough examination. Traditional inspections would require the use of scaffolding or cherry pickers, which not only incurs significant costs but also necessitates obtaining permits from local councils in the UK.
​
Our drone roof survey can bypass these challenges entirely, reaching towering heights with ease, and offering a safe, cost-effective alternative to conventional methods. A drone can ascend directly, without the need for any infrastructure or permits, capturing high-quality images of roof tiles/shingles, gutters and chimneys within minutes.
​
With our drone roof survey service, you can forget about the hassles and delays of scaffolding or cherry picker arrangements. We ensure that even the most inaccessible roofs can be inspected efficiently and effectively.
Drone Roof Inspection: Blocked Gutters
Guttering systems are crucial to any building’s health, responsible for effectively directing water away from the structure. Over time, various faults can occur in gutters that, if left unattended, can lead to substantial damage. Traditional inspections involve climbing ladders or setting up scaffolding, posing safety risks and consuming significant time. However, our drone roof surveys offer an innovative, safer, and faster solution to this problem. ​ One of the most common faults in guttering systems is blockage due to leaves, twigs, or other debris. These blockages can prevent water from flowing freely, leading to overflow and potential damage to the building’s exterior. Our drones can easily detect such blockages, providing clear images that allow for targeted cleaning. ​ Over time, gutters can develop cracks or holes that may lead to leaks. This not only reduces the guttering system’s efficiency but also can result in water damage to the property. Our drone roof surveys, with their high-resolution cameras, can identify these faults even from a distance. ​ An improperly pitched gutter fails to direct water towards the downspouts, leading to pooling and potential seepage into the building. Drones roof surveys can help identify such issues by providing a bird’s eye view of the gutter’s slope and detecting areas where water may accumulate.
