Drone roof survey in Beauworth: what you get

A drone shows the outside of a roof very well, but it cannot see inside. Where there is safe access, we look in the loft space too, because the underside tells its own story. Inside and out together tell you far more. Your report shows the drone photos alongside what we saw in the loft. If there is no safe loft access, the report says so. Typical surveys look at blistered or cracked flat roof coverings and coverings that have slipped high up on the roof, across chimney stacks, valleys and parapet gutters and large and complex roofs.

Somewhere as small as Beauworth, older roofs are frequently steep and partly hidden by trees or outbuildings. A drone and a thermal camera each give a view you can’t get from the ground. Both the forecast and the airspace are checked first. Older roofs with steep slopes and tall chimneys are where the extra view helps most.

The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Beauworth: your questions answered

Is drone flying allowed in Beauworth?

It depends on the exact address and the weather on the day. Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. Strong wind or a downpour also stops a small drone flying.

Is my home in Beauworth listed or in a conservation area?

You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.

Does someone need to be in?

If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when booking.

What happens next?

We email you the written report with photographs and recommendations. It’s yours to share with a seller, insurer, roofer or managing agent, whichever applies.

Do you look in the roof space?

If there is a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.

When does the report arrive?

It depends on the package: the Basic Survey report arrives within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey the same day. The report is emailed to you.

How many surveys have you done?

We’ve completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, with 98% customer satisfaction.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Beauworth

Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget.

Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Let us know about it as you book and we will plan the visit with that in mind.

Flying and imaging in Beauworth

Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Older coverings on steep or tall roofs are hard to judge from below, so close-up close-up aerial shots and thermal images help. Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first, including zones around airports and prisons.

Hinton Ampner House lies about 1.5 miles north-east, so building around Beauworth goes back a long way. Older roofs nearby can be steep and hard to see from the ground, and a survey by drone or thermal camera doesn’t touch the roof itself.

Beauworth is about 6 miles east of Winchester, in Hampshire. We carry out drone roof surveys for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Beauworth. Beauworth is one of the towns and villages in Hampshire where we work for drone roof surveys. You can also see our page for Southampton.

Can I check my roof myself?

It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.

The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.

When to book a survey in Beauworth

Many roofs are never seen properly from ground level. You cannot see the back slope, the valleys or the chimney tops. Problems in those places frequently go unseen until they leak.

Common reasons to book include:

  • Moss and weeds taking hold up top
  • Ponding and splits on a high flat roof
  • Coverings that have slipped high up on the roof
  • Flashings that have come away

If you live in an older home near Church of St James, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where aerial photos and thermal images help.

Choosing a roof surveyor

  • Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
  • How much experience they have with roofs like yours
  • What’s outside the scope of the survey
  • Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?

What a roof survey includes

What affects the price in Beauworth

Survey packages start from £150, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on:

  • Commercial roofs and larger buildings
  • Building height and the viewpoints available
  • Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
  • The shape of the roof and its details

Our price is from £400, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we can help you choose.

Getting in touch

If you can, have these to hand when you get in touch:

  • Where the property is, with the postcode
  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
  • What made you get in touch
  • Dates you’re working to, such as exchange

Not sure which survey you need? It is easiest to phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We will explain the options and the price.

What happens on the day

The visit has one job: to look at the roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Notes and photographs go into the written report. The visit normally takes between one and two hours for a house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. In a small place like Beauworth, access is usually the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.

  1. We confirm whether a drone suits your roof.
  2. A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday, weather permitting.
  3. The roof is photographed from the air, with the camera kept on your property.
  4. If the loft can be reached safely, it’s checked too.
  5. The report sets out what we found, with photos and recommendations.

Before the survey

  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
  • Leave a clear route to the loft
  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

Book a survey

We confirm the price for your survey before booking, so you know the cost up front. Drone roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. For a price for your roof, call 07833 053749 or email us.

A survey is a close look at the roof, but it cannot do everything. The main limits are:

  • The underside of the roof (that needs an inside check)
  • A flight on a day when the weather isn’t safe
  • Whether the roof structure meets design loads
