About our drone roof survey in Littlefield Green
Prices start from £400, including VAT. A drone inspection, where it applies, is also part of our Premium Survey, along with structural analysis, a same-day report and an in-person consultation. There’s a 12-month follow-up as well. If a drone will not help on your roof, we will say so. Every drone survey comes with a written report and close-up photos. If you’ve noticed eroded pointing on a chimney stack and gaps where slates or tiles have gone, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on tall and steep roofs, flat roofs on upper floors and large and complex roofs alike.
In a village or hamlet like Littlefield Green, roofs can be steep, old and hard to see from the lane. A drone and a thermal camera each give a view you cannot get from the ground. Weather and airspace are looked at ahead of the visit, and the journey is planned beforehand. Steep slopes and tall chimney stacks are where a close-up view adds the most.
Where we cannot see part of the roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Different roofs, different checks
Valleys and parapet gutters
Hidden gutters and valleys sit out of sight. A drone shows linings, joints and build-ups of debris.
Flat roofs on tall buildings
Felt often lasts around 15 to 20 years, EPDM rubber around 30 to 50 and GRP up to about 30. We record the signs of age we can see.
When to book a survey in Littlefield Green
Walking on some roofs does more harm than good. Older slates and tiles break easily, and fragile sheet roofs are dangerous to walk on. A drone lets us see them closely without touching them.
Common reasons to book include:
- Cracked flaunching or loose chimney pots
- Vegetation in valleys and gutters
- Flat roofs on upper floors that hold water
- Ridge and hip pieces working loose
Take a building like Holyport College: thermal images can show where wet insulation sits under a big flat roof.
What to check before booking
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Whether the price includes VAT
Questions from Littlefield Green
Is my home in Littlefield Green listed or in a conservation area?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Can you fly a drone over a roof in Littlefield Green?
The answer turns on the exact location and the conditions on the day. White Waltham Airfield is about 2 miles away, so we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before any flight. A small drone cannot fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain.
What does a roof survey cost?
Our price is from £400, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package, confirmed before anything is booked.
How do I arrange a drone roof survey in Littlefield Green?
Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Do you work in Littlefield Green?
Yes. We cover Littlefield Green and the rest of Windsor and Maidenhead. For a price, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Do I need to be at home?
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.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, if whoever owns or manages the building agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we are allowed to reach.
Airspace, weather and Littlefield Green roofs
Littlefield Green is about 2 miles from White Waltham Airfield, so the Drone Safety Map is checked for restrictions around it before we fly. Historic houses like Dorney Court, about 4.3 miles north-east, show how far back building in the area around Littlefield Green goes. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof.
The streets around a church like Church of St Mary are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement.

A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work around your tenants.
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. A written report with photographs gives you a clear record of the roof, useful for planning maintenance.
What affects the price in Littlefield Green
Survey packages start from £150, inc. VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- House, block, shop or office
- Building height and the viewpoints available
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before you book.
Getting in touch
Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- The kind of building and roof involved
- The address and postcode of the property
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or send us an email whenever suits you.
Why it’s worth a survey now in Littlefield Green
Leaving a slipped slate or a blocked valley can turn a small fault into a leak. Spotting them early keeps the work smaller. For an older or listed building in a place like Littlefield Green, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.
Prices start from £400, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.

What happens on the day
It helps to start with what’s prompted the survey: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit usually takes between one and two hours for most homes, with the pre-flight checks included, and longer for big commercial roofs. In a small place like Littlefield Green, access is normally 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.
- First, we check the address for flight restrictions.
- If permission is needed, we ask for it before the visit.
- Before the flight, we check the conditions and the take-off spot.
- The sub-250g drone takes close-up photos of the roof, kept in sight throughout.
- You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the survey
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Let us know about parking near the property
