About our drone roof survey in Weyhill

From the air, the outer surfaces are clear, but it cannot see under the coverings or into the loft. We check the loft from inside where it’s safe, because the underside tells its own story. Together, the two give a fuller picture. Your report shows the drone photos alongside what we saw in the loft. Where the loft can’t be reached safely, we note it. We survey tall and steep roofs, valleys and parapet gutters and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are slipped or missing slates on a high roof and tired mortar and pots at the top of a stack.

Villages like Weyhill often stand in open country, where wind can be strong. A small drone cannot fly safely in high wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best with little wind. The visit is planned around the forecast, along with the journey and access. A change in the forecast can mean moving the visit to another day.

The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent.

What affects the cost of drone roof surveys

All our prices include VAT. The things that change the price are:

  • Basic, Standard or Premium
  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
  • Roof area

Prices start from £400, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, access and the package you choose.

What we need to know

If you can, have these to hand when you get in touch:

  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
  • Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
  • Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
  • What kind of property and roof it is

Unsure which package suits your roof? The easiest way is to phone 07833 053749 or email us and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We will talk you through the options and what they cost.

What a drone roof survey looks like in Weyhill

Every flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first, including zones around airports and prisons. We fly a sub-250g drone and are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). Open category rules keep flights below 120 m (400 ft) and the drone within sight at all times.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael and All Angels, steep roofs, tall chimneys and hidden valleys can be hard to see from ground level, and that’s where a view by drone or thermal camera helps.

How it works

Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take about 1–2 hours for most homes, with the pre-flight checks included, and longer for big commercial roofs. Somewhere like Weyhill needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.

  1. First, we check whether a drone is the right tool.
  2. A date is fixed, with a fallback in case the weather turns.
  3. The roof is photographed from the air, with the camera kept on your property.
  4. Where there is safe access, we check the loft as well.
  5. The report sets out what we found, with photos and recommendations.

Before the survey

  • Keep pets out of the way during the survey
  • Note where any stains or damp appear
  • Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

What we are asked to look at in Weyhill

Big commercial and industrial roofs cover a lot of ground. A drone can photograph a large roof methodically. You see the whole roof, not just the parts near an access point.

We’re often asked to look at:

  • Cracked flaunching or loose chimney pots
  • Debris building up in hidden gutters
  • Storm damage on steep or tall roofs
  • Flashings that have come away

In and around Weyhill, as anywhere, a roof is easiest to deal with when its problems are found early.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether VAT is in the quoted price
  • What they won’t be able to tell you
  • How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
  • If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID

What a roof survey includes

What we can’t see

It’s a careful look at the roof, not the whole story. Its limits include:

  • What’s under the slates, tiles or felt
  • Flying in a flight restriction zone without the airport’s permission
  • A flight on a day when the weather is not safe

If you are not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you a straight answer. What our survey covers.

What this survey covers

  • Chimney stacks
  • Valleys and parapet gutters
  • Fragile roofs
  • Large and complex roofs
  • Flat roofs on upper floors
  • Tall and steep roofs

DIY checks: what’s safe

After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Weyhill

We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time.

Landlords, agents and building managers in Weyhill and across Hampshire can book any of our surveys. For a price for a let property or a block, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.

FAQs for Weyhill

Can you fly a drone over a roof in Weyhill?

Normally it comes down to two things: the airspace at the address and the weather. Before any flight, we check the Drone Safety Map for airspace restrictions, including zones around airports and prisons. A small drone cannot fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain.

Will you come out to Weyhill?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What happens next?

We email you the written report with photographs and recommendations. It’s yours to share with a seller, insurer, roofer or managing agent, whichever applies.

Are you insured?

Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and details are available on request.

How fast do I get the report?

Report times are set by the package. Basic is within 48 hours, Standard is 24–48 hours and Premium is the same day. If you have a deadline, such as an exchange date, let us know when you book.

Do you take photos of the roof?

Yes. We photograph the roof as we go, and the report uses them to show each finding alongside our recommendations.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

Visits run seven days a week in the daytime, which suits people who work during the week. Just say which days work for you.
