Questions from Penton Mewsey

Do you cover smaller places like Penton Mewsey?

We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.

Is drone flying allowed in Penton Mewsey?

It depends on the exact address and the weather on the day. Before any flight, we check the Drone Safety Map for airspace restrictions, including zones around airports and prisons. The flight also waits for calm, dry weather.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Just say which days work for you.

What’s in the 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, so you know exactly what was covered.

Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?

Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability.

I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?

Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. We check the parts we’re given access to.

What does a roof survey cost?

Drone roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose, and it’s agreed before booking.

Drone roof surveys for homes and businesses in Penton Mewsey

Our drone weighs under 250g, and we hold a CAA Flyer ID and 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. Before every flight, we check the airspace and the weather. We never fly where it isn’t safe. We survey valleys and parapet gutters, tall and steep roofs and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are lifted or split lead flashings and cracked flaunching or loose chimney pots.

Older buildings in small places like Penton Mewsey may be listed or in a conservation area. A look by drone or thermal camera doesn’t touch the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care, before anyone decides what work it needs. Check with the council before planning any work on a listed building or one in a conservation area.

It is not only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Roof by roof

Large commercial roofs

Fragile roof sheets and roof lights can be dangerous to walk on. A drone keeps everyone off them.

Valleys and parapet gutters

Hidden gutters and valleys sit out of sight. A drone shows linings, joints and build-ups of debris.

Practical tips

Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:

  • Be ready to move the date if the weather turns
  • Mention anything you’ve noticed on the roof
  • Tell us the exact address when booking
  • Check the loft can be reached

If you need work done, roofers can work from the photos. The photos show the location and extent of every problem, so their quotes cover the same ground.

Do not block the vents at the eaves. Condensation in the loft can damage timbers and insulation. Check insulation doesn’t block the airflow.

What a survey costs

Not every roof costs the same to survey, for these reasons:

  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
  • Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
  • Roof area
  • How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see

All our prices include VAT. Drone roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking.

Booking your survey

A little information up front helps. Please include:

  • When you need the report by
  • Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
  • Where water is showing inside, if it is
  • Where the property is, with the postcode

We survey roofs on weekdays and at weekends. To arrange a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Why get it checked now?

Photos from a drone survey show how the roof looks today. Comparing them with later photos shows what has changed. It’s useful for planning maintenance over the years. Older and listed buildings around Penton Mewsey may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.

Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Our price is from £400, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

What you can safely check yourself

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date.

A lot can be seen from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.

Drone roof surveys in Penton Mewsey: local notes

Our drone weighs under 250g, and we hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID. Open category rules keep flights below 120 m (400 ft) and the drone within sight at all times. Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first, including zones around airports and prisons.

Take an older house close to Holy Trinity Church: thin or patchy insulation under an old roof often shows up clearly on a thermal image. Take a building like Harrow Way Community School: a view from above covers a wide roof far faster than walking it.

How it works

Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take an hour or two for most homes, with the pre-flight checks included, and longer for big commercial roofs. Rural addresses near Penton Mewsey can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.

  1. You give us the address so we can check the airspace.
  2. If permission is needed, we ask for it ahead of the visit.
  3. We assess the wind, the weather and the surroundings before take-off.
  4. We fly the drone close to the roof to photograph it in detail, always in sight.
  5. We email a written report with the photographs and our recommendations.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the way to the loft hatch
  • Jot down any questions you want answered
  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
