Drone Roof Survey in Redenham
Close-up drone photographs of roofs that are hard to reach around Redenham, with findings in writing and pictures to back them up. Book a weekday or weekend visit.
- Lifted or split lead flashings
- Ridge and hip pieces working loose
- Tired mortar and pots at the top of a stack
The survey, step by step
It’s useful 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. Most visits take an hour or two at a typical home, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. In a hamlet or village like Redenham, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, 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.
- First, we check whether a drone is the right tool.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday, weather permitting.
- Aerial photos are taken of your roof only, not the neighbours’.
- If the loft can be reached safely, it’s checked too.
- The report sets out what we found, with photos and recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
Booking a survey
Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Drone roof survey in Redenham
Drone roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. The Premium Survey includes a drone inspection where applicable, with a same-day report, structural analysis and an in-person consultation. It also includes a follow-up after 12 months. We’ll tell you if a drone is not the right tool for your roof. You get a written report with the close-up photos from the flight. If you’ve noticed flashings that have come away and cracked mortar along the ridge, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Some older homes in villages like Redenham are listed or in a conservation area. Neither a drone survey nor a thermal survey involves any work on 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.
Findings are set out part by part, from the coverings down to the gutters, with a note and a photo for each point. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

FAQs for Redenham
Is my home in Redenham listed or in a conservation area?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you cover smaller places like Redenham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can the drone do thermal imaging?
Not as part of the drone survey, which is about close-up photos. For thermal imaging, look at the Premium Survey or our thermal roof survey.
Can a drone see inside my loft?
No. The drone sees the roof from outside only. The loft space is checked separately, where there’s safe access.
Do you hold CAA registration for the drone?
Yes, we are. The CAA has issued us a Flyer ID and an Operator ID, and we fly a drone that weighs under 250g.
How long does the visit take?
Typically, it takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, including the airspace and weather checks before take-off. Pre-flight checks of the site and the weather are part of that.
What happens after the survey?
The report arrives by email, with photos and clear recommendations. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation, so you can talk the findings through.
What we look for on each type of roof
Steep slate and tile slopes
Steep slopes are hard to inspect safely on foot. A drone photographs them closely from a safe position.
Flat roofs on tall buildings
Flat roof coverings wear out at different rates. We record the signs of age we can see.
Useful tips for Redenham property owners
Getting the most from a drone roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Share the postcode so we can check for restrictions
- Tell next door if the drone will be near their property
- Expect a little longer if permission is needed
- Keep pets indoors during the flight
With the Premium Survey, the report arrives the same day. Drone photographs are included where we could fly.
Have high or hard-to-reach roofs surveyed every few years. Regular photos make changes easy to spot, and early repairs keep water out.
Surveys for landlords and agents in Redenham
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll plan the survey around it.
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed in advance. Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays, which can make access easier.
Drones, thermal imaging and Redenham roofs
Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.
Take an older house close to Church of St Peter in the Wood: tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement.

Common roof problems in Redenham
Chimney tops take the worst of the weather. From the ground, you rarely see cracked flaunching or loose pots. Close-up drone photos show their condition.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Eroded pointing on a chimney stack
- Coverings that have slipped high up on the roof
- Slates or tiles shifted by high winds
- Flat roofs on upper floors that hold water
Take a building like Appleshaw St Peter's CofE Primary School: thermal images can show where wet insulation sits under a big flat roof.
Before you book anyone
