Prices for drone roof surveys in New Haw
When we price a survey, we consider:
- Whether it is a home or a commercial building
- How big the roof is
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You will know the figure before booking.
Booking your survey
Before you get in touch, it is useful to have:
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Your timetable, like an exchange date
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
Our price is from £400, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, so call 07833 053749 or email us with the details.
Drone roof surveys for homes and businesses in New Haw
A drone shows the outside of a roof very well, but it can’t see under the coverings or into the loft. We check the loft from inside where it is safe, because the underside tells its own story. Together, the two give a fuller picture. The report sets out what the drone showed and what we found inside. If there is no safe loft access, the report says so. If you’re worried about slates or tiles shifted by high winds and flashings that have come away, we can find out what’s behind it.
Around New Haw, older homes can have thin loft insulation and later additions with roofs of their own. Thermal patterns and close-up photos together give a fuller picture of the roof. Findings are checked with moisture readings where needed. Results depend on the weather, so the visit is planned around the forecast.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Drones, thermal imaging and New Haw roofs
New Haw is about 3 miles from Fairoaks Airport, so the Drone Safety Map is checked for restrictions around it before we fly. With Byfleet Manor about 1.9 miles south-east, New Haw sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
For businesses in and around places such as The Peacocks, a commercial roof can be photographed from above without anyone walking on it. For an older house near a landmark like All Saints Church, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where aerial photos and thermal images help. Take a building like The Grange Community Infant School: thermal images can show where wet insulation sits under a big flat roof.

Common questions in New Haw
Does a conservation area affect roof work in New Haw?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
Can you fly a drone over a roof in New Haw?
Usually it comes down to two things: the airspace at the address and the weather. Fairoaks Airport is about 3 miles away, so we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before any flight. Strong wind or a downpour also stops a small drone flying.
How long is the visit?
Most surveys take about 1–2 hours for a house; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. The report follows by email.
How fast do I get the report?
Report times are set by the package. Basic: within 48 hours. Standard: 24 to 48 hours. Premium: the same day. Mention any deadline when booking.
What’s in the survey report?
It explains what we saw, what it means and what we’d suggest, with photographs throughout. Anything we couldn’t see safely is noted too.
Does the report include photos?
Yes. Photos are taken throughout the survey, and the report uses them to show each finding alongside our recommendations.
Are you structural engineers?
No. Our survey is not a structural engineer’s report. We will recommend an engineer if we see signs that call for one.
The survey, step by step
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. It normally takes about 1–2 hours at most homes, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Homes around New Haw often have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. The loft, where there is safe access, completes the picture.
- First comes the address, plus a note of what worries you about the roof.
- Airspace restrictions are checked and permission sought where needed.
- We assess the conditions and the take-off spot first.
- Close-up photos are taken of each slope, chimney, valley and gutter, with the drone always in view.
- You receive a written report with the photos and our recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
Arrange a survey
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 email us whenever suits you.

What we can’t see
Before you book, it is worth knowing what a survey won’t do:
- A flight on a day when the weather isn’t safe
- Whether the roof structure meets design loads
- The underside of the roof (that needs an inside check)
If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book. What our survey covers.
What this survey covers
- Fragile roofs
- Chimney stacks
- Large and complex roofs
- Valleys and parapet gutters
- Tall and steep roofs
- Flat roofs on upper floors
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Larger roofs take longer.
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client, photos included.
Useful tips for New Haw property owners
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Mention anything you’ve noticed on the roof
- Keep dogs indoors during the visit
- Allow time for permission if you’re in a flight restriction zone
- Clear the loft hatch so we can check inside too
The report gives any roofer you ask to quote a clear brief. The photos show the location and extent of every problem.
Keep gutters, valleys and outlets clear, especially in autumn. On high roofs, leave clearing to a professional. Many leaks start with a blocked outlet.
Why it’s worth a survey now in New Haw
A drone survey disturbs nothing on the roof. Nothing is cracked or dislodged by footsteps, so the survey doesn’t create new problems. Homes in smaller places like New Haw can face more weather, so a loose ridge or verge soon lets rain in. Each storm lifts it a little further.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Our price is from £400, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
