About our drone roof survey in Nether Wallop
Our drone weighs under 250g, and we are a CAA-registered drone operator, with a Flyer ID and an Operator ID. It stays within sight for the whole flight, and well below the 120-metre height limit. Each flight is planned with the site and its surroundings in mind. Airspace and weather are checked before every flight. Safety comes first on every visit. We’re frequently asked to look into plant growth and moss on the roof and worn lead at chimneys and walls, across fragile roofs, flat roofs on upper floors and tall and steep roofs.
In a village or hamlet like Nether Wallop, roofs can be steep, old and hard to see from the lane. Close-up drone photos and thermal images help show what cannot be reached safely. Weather and airspace are checked ahead of the visit. Steep slopes and tall chimney stacks are where a close-up view adds the most.
Nothing in the report is left vague: where something needs attention, it says so plainly.

Common roof problems in Nether Wallop
Height and steep pitches make close inspection risky. Three-storey houses, blocks of flats and tall commercial buildings are common examples. We fly from the ground and bring the camera close to the roof.
People normally book a survey after spotting one of these:
- Hidden gutters full of leaves
- Ponding and splits on a high flat roof
- Vegetation in valleys and gutters
- Loose ridge and hip tiles
Take an older house close to Church of St Andrew: thin or patchy insulation under an old roof frequently shows up clearly on a thermal image.
What to check before booking
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Their report turnaround times
The survey, step by step
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you need to know. After that, we look at everything we can see safely. The survey typically takes roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Somewhere as small as Nether Wallop, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We start with the address and what you’d like checked.
- We check the airspace and seek any permission needed.
- Before take-off, the wind, the weather and the launch spot are looked at.
- We fly the sub-250g drone close to the roof and photograph each area.
- We email the report with close-up photos and recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
Getting a price
Photos help, if you have them. Take them safely from ground level or a window; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

Questions from Nether Wallop
Do you cover smaller places like Nether Wallop?
Yes, Nether Wallop is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Are there drone restrictions around Nether Wallop?
That depends on where the roof is and on the weather. Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first, including zones around airports and prisons. A small drone cannot fly safely in high wind or heavy rain.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in; we will agree the details when booking.
What happens next?
You’ll get the report by email, with photographs and clear recommendations. With Standard there is a follow-up consultation; with Premium, an in-person consultation.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days when you book.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. Buildings built or refurbished before 2000 may contain it.
How many surveys have you done?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys, across London and South East England.
Roof by roof
Valleys and parapet gutters
When a parapet outlet blocks, water can come inside. We check outlets and photograph any build-up.
Ridges and hips
Ridges and hips are the most exposed parts of a pitched roof. From above, we can see loose ridges and missing mortar.
Useful tips for Nether Wallop property owners
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They apply to most roofs:
- Check the loft can be reached
- Keep dogs indoors during the visit
- Let neighbours know about the flight if your roof is shared
- Allow for a change of day in poor weather
Keep the photos with your property records. They’re a useful baseline for future surveys.
Keep gutters, valleys and outlets clear, ideally once the leaves have fallen. On high roofs, leave clearing to a professional. Many leaks start with a blocked outlet.
