Drone roof survey in Shreding Green: what you get
Drone roof surveys are available in Shreding Green and throughout London and South East England, subject to airspace checks and the weather. Flights take place on weekdays and at weekends. We check the airspace for your address before booking a flight. You get a written report with close-up photographs and recommendations. To ask whether a drone survey suits your roof, call 07833 053749 or send us an email. We are often asked to look into blistered or cracked flat roof coverings and blocked valleys and parapet gutters, on tall and steep roofs, valleys and parapet gutters and flat roofs on upper floors.
Some older homes in villages like Shreding Green are listed or in a conservation area. A look by drone or thermal camera does not touch the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, so check with the council first.
We keep jargon out of it: where something needs attention, it says so plainly, along with how urgent it is.

How it works
Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes about one to two hours at a house, including the airspace and weather checks before take-off. Cottages and farmhouses around Shreding Green often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- 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.
- We fly the sub-250g drone close to the roof and photograph each area.
- You receive a written report with the photos and our recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Leave a clear route to the loft
How to book

When to book a survey in Shreding Green
After storms, owners want to know what has moved. It is hard to tell from below what has shifted. Close-up photos make it clear what has been disturbed.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Hidden gutters full of leaves
- Chimney tops in poor condition
- Ridge pieces that have lifted
- Lifted or split lead flashings
With Windsor Castle about 4 miles south-west, the area around Shreding Green has a long history. Older roofs nearby can be steep and hard to see from the ground, and a survey from above or with a thermal imager doesn’t touch the roof itself.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- What happens after the report arrives
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Their track record with similar roofs
What affects the cost of drone roof surveys
A few things affect what a survey costs:
- House, block, shop or office
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
All our prices include VAT. Our price is from £400, including VAT. You’ll know the price for the job before booking.
Getting in touch
Getting the details right at the start saves time. It helps to include:
- What made you get in touch
- Anything about access we should know
- The address and postcode of the property
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
Once you know what you need, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.
Checking the roof from the ground
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and falls from height are serious. That part is for a survey.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book, as it helps us focus the survey.
Before and after the survey
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Share the postcode so we can check for restrictions
- Let neighbours know about the flight if your roof is shared
- Keep a clear space in the garden or drive for take-off
- Make sure the loft can be reached
There’s a follow-up after 12 months with the Premium Survey. It helps you see how the roof has changed over the year, and whether work has done its job.
Plan a drone survey every few years for tall or large roofs. Regular photos make changes easy to spot, so small faults are dealt with early.

Drone roof surveys around Shreding Green
Shreding Green is about 2 miles from the edge of the flight restriction zone around Heathrow Airport. We check the exact boundary for the address before flying, and if the roof falls inside it, we ask for permission first. The drone we use is under 250g, flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID. Open category rules keep flights below 120 m (400 ft) and the drone within sight at all times.
The streets around a church such as Church of St Peter are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Iver Village Junior School, big roofs are where close-up aerial shots and thermal images show the most at once.

Shreding Green questions
Is Shreding Green within the area you cover?
Yes, Shreding Green is covered. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you fly a drone over a roof in Shreding Green?
The answer turns on the exact location and the conditions on the day. The flight restriction zone around Heathrow Airport comes within about 2 miles of Shreding Green. We check the exact boundary for the address before flying, and if the roof falls inside it, we ask for permission first. The flight also waits for calm, dry weather.
How experienced are you?
We have completed more than 5,000 surveys, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, and 98% of customers are satisfied.
Are you insured?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Will I get photos?
Yes. We photograph the roof as we go, and the report uses them to show each finding.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed when booking.
