About our drone roof survey in Bailey Green
Drone surveys suit tall houses, blocks of flats, steep roofs and large commercial roofs. They’re useful where walking on the roof could damage it or is not safe, such as old slate, clay tiles or cement sheets. You get close-up views without anyone setting foot on the roof. Ahead of the visit, we check the address for any airspace restrictions that apply. If a drone isn’t the right tool, we will say so. We survey valleys and parapet gutters, fragile roofs and large and complex roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are slipped or missing slates on a high roof and outlets choked with leaves and silt.
Villages like Bailey Green often stand in open country, where wind can be strong. Strong wind or heavy rain stops a small drone flying, and calm conditions also suit thermal imaging best. The visit is planned around the forecast, along with the journey and access. If the day turns windy or wet, the visit can be moved.
Nothing in the report is left vague: if work is needed, the report says so clearly, and where it can wait, that’s said too.

Leave it or get it looked at?
Planning roof work without seeing the roof is a gamble. You get photographs of every part we can see. That helps you put the work in order. In a place like Bailey Green, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you’d like to know.
Why us?
- Over 20 years’ experience
- A photo-illustrated written report
- Professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Customer satisfaction of 98%

Bailey Green questions
Is drone flying allowed in Bailey Green?
It depends on the exact address and the weather on the day. Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. A small drone can’t fly safely in high wind or heavy rain.
Is Bailey Green within the area you cover?
Yes, Bailey Green is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. We check the parts we are given access to.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
Are you insured?
We are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
How do I book a survey in Bailey Green?
To book, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and tell us the address and what you want to find out. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We do not sample or test for asbestos. Where a material might contain it, like old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
What we are asked to look at in Bailey Green
Chimney tops take the worst of the weather. Cracked flaunching, loose pots and eroded pointing are often invisible from below. Close-up drone photos show their condition.
Things that often lead to a survey include:
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
- Loose ridge and hip tiles
- Outlets choked with leaves and silt
- Vegetation in valleys and gutters
Take an older house close to Holy Trinity Church: tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
- What exactly goes into their report
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Whether VAT is added on top
How the survey works
The visit has one job: to see as much of the roof as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Notes and photographs go into the written report. It usually takes an hour or two at most homes; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Rural addresses near Bailey Green can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- First comes the address, plus a note of what worries you about the roof.
- Airspace restrictions are checked and permission sought where needed.
- On the day, we check the wind, weather and site before flying.
- The drone photographs the roof closely, kept in sight throughout.
- You receive a written report with the photos and our recommendations.
How to prepare
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Leave a clear route to the loft

Can I check my roof myself?
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Drone roof surveys around Bailey Green
We fly a sub-250g drone and are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). Flights in the open category stay under 120 m (400 ft), with the drone kept in sight. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Older coverings on steep or tall roofs are hard to judge from below, so close-up photos from the air and thermal images help.
Historic houses like Hinton Ampner House, about 4.7 miles west, show how far back building around Bailey Green goes. Close-up aerial shots and thermal images let an old roof be checked without anyone disturbing it.

- The underside of the roof (that needs an inside check)
- Close-up photos of next door’s property
- Photos in conditions too poor to fly
