Drone roof survey in Hassell Street: what you get
Drone roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. The Premium Survey includes a drone inspection where applicable, with a same-day report, structural analysis and an in-person consultation. There’s a 12-month follow-up as well. We’ll tell you if a drone isn’t the right tool for your roof. Every drone survey comes with a written report and close-up photographs. Typical surveys look at storm damage on steep or tall roofs and vegetation in valleys and gutters, on large and complex roofs, tall and steep roofs and flat roofs on upper floors.
Older buildings in small places like Hassell Street may be listed or in a conservation area. Neither a drone survey nor a thermal survey involves any work on the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care. Check with the council before planning any work on a listed building or one in a conservation area.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. It is useful straight away, and a good reference for later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

Why it is worth a survey now in Hassell Street
A drone survey disturbs nothing on the roof. Nothing is cracked or dislodged by footsteps, so the survey does not create new problems. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. That’s one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Why us?
- 5,000+ roofs surveyed
- Plain-English reports with photos
- Drones and thermal imaging where it applies
- Satisfaction rate of 98%

Before and after the survey
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:
- Let neighbours know about the flight if your roof is shared
- Let us know about any leaks or concerns
- Keep pets indoors during the flight
- Make sure the loft can be reached
Your report arrives by email, including the close-up photos taken by the drone. Findings are set out in plain English, and recommendations are ranked by urgency where that helps.
Every so often, look in the roof space with a torch, keeping to boarded areas. The underside frequently shows problems before the outside does. Photograph anything new.
How it works
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely. Most surveys take about 1–2 hours at a house, including the airspace and weather checks before take-off. Cottages and farmhouses around Hassell Street often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen.
- First, we check whether a drone is the right tool.
- We agree a date, including weekends, subject to the weather.
- Aerial photos are taken of your roof only, not the neighbours’.
- Where there’s safe access, we check the loft as well.
- Everything is written up, with the aerial photos and our advice.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Tell us about parking before the day
Arrange a survey

How the survey changes by roof type
Ridges and hips
Wind lifts loose ridge and hip tiles. Spotting them early stops them falling.
Valleys and parapet gutters
Hidden gutters and valleys sit out of sight. A drone shows linings, joints and build-ups of debris.
