Drone roof surveys near Lower Green

How it works

After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take an hour or two on an ordinary house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Somewhere as small as Lower Green, access is frequently the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

  1. You give us the address and let us know about the roof.
  2. Any flight restriction at the address is checked, with permission requested if required.
  3. Before take-off, the wind, the weather and the launch spot are checked.
  4. We fly the sub-250g drone close to the roof and photograph each area.
  5. The findings, photos and recommendations reach you by email.

Before the survey

  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
  • Check the loft hatch can be reached

Arrange a survey

Booking is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form, let us know about the property and we will point you to the right survey. The price is agreed up front.

Advice

Drone roof surveys for homes and businesses in Lower Green

Our drone weighs under 250g, and we hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID. It stays within sight for the whole flight, and within the 120-metre limit that applies to all drones in the open category. Each flight is planned with the site and its surroundings in mind. Airspace and weather are checked before every flight. We never fly where it is not safe. If you are worried about cracked flaunching or loose chimney pots and coverings that have slipped high up on the roof, we can find out what’s behind it, on fragile roofs, chimney stacks and flat roofs on upper floors alike.

In a small place like Lower Green, open ground can mean strong wind. Strong wind or a downpour stops a small drone flying, and calm conditions also suit thermal imaging best. We plan the journey, access and timing around the weather. A change in the forecast can mean moving the visit to another day.

The report does not just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Lower Green

Lower Green: your questions answered

Are there drone restrictions around Lower Green?

Usually it comes down to two things: the airspace at the address and the weather. Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first, including zones around airports and prisons. The flight also waits for calm, dry weather.

How do I find out if my home in Lower Green is listed?

Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. 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.

How long will you be at the property?

Most surveys take between one and two hours on an ordinary house, and more on a big or complicated roof. We will confirm the timing when you book.

What does the report include?

A report with photographs, explaining the condition of the roof, any defects and our recommendations. Standard adds moisture detection and a structural check; Premium adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable and structural analysis.

Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?

Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.

What do I do with the report?

The report arrives by email, with photographs and clear recommendations. With Standard there’s a follow-up consultation; with Premium, an in-person consultation, so you can talk the findings through.

Do you work in Lower Green?

Yes. We survey roofs in Lower Green and the rest of Hampshire. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

What a survey costs

Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. This is what makes a difference:

  • Commercial roofs and larger buildings
  • Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
  • Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
  • The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen

Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, inc. VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

What we need to know

We will normally ask about:

  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
  • The address and postcode of the property
  • Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
  • Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work

To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. We will confirm the price before you book.

Drone roof surveys in Lower Green: local notes

Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. 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 aerial photos and thermal images help.

For any home in Lower Green, it’s the small, early fault that is cheapest to put right.

How the survey changes by roof type

Steep slate and tile slopes

Widespread slipping on slate typically means nail fatigue. Close-up photos show how widespread it is.

Large commercial roofs

Many commercial roofs have fragile sheets or roof lights. A drone keeps everyone off them.

What happens if roof problems are left?

Leaving a slipped slate or a blocked valley can turn a small fault into a leak. Spotting them early keeps the work smaller. In a small place like Lower Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Prices start from £400, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, with VAT included, and we can help you choose.

Signs you need a drone roof survey in Lower Green

From the pavement, most of a tall roof is out of sight. You can’t see the back slope, the valleys or the chimney tops. Faults there can go unnoticed for years.

We are frequently asked to look at:

  • Outlets choked with leaves and silt
  • Plant growth and moss on the roof
  • Chimney tops in poor condition
  • Storm damage on steep or tall roofs

If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St Peter and St Paul, thin or patchy insulation under an old roof often shows up clearly on a thermal image.
