Drone Roof Inspections Services

Roofs are a lot like tyres – we only think about them when there’s a problem, and we only replace them when we have to. But the problem with that approach is that you end up spending a lot more time and money on them in the long run. Instead, it’s better to invest in regular maintenance, fixing problems when they’re small and saving money along the way.

The problem is, you can’t see your roof, so how are you supposed to know it needs attention?

That’s why at Willingtons we provide a range of drone roof inspection services. Using our state-of-the-art drones, we can provide pictures and video footage of your roof, highlight issues that need to be addressed and provide insurance companies with the information they need.

Why Have A Roof Inspection?

Your roof is exposed to the elements 24/7, 365 days a year, and it has to stand up to a lot during that time. By checking the condition of your roof regularly and making small repairs, you can significantly extend the lifespan of your roof and counteract any weathering or ageing. It also allows you to see if your gutters need cleaning, identify any issues with chimneys or solar panels that you can’t normally see.

If your roof isn’t maintained properly, tradesmen who are repairing other elements of your home could end up inadvertently damaging your roof. For example, if you have solar panels or an air conditioning unit that needs servicing, the tradesmen will need access to the roof. During this, they could step on a fragile tile or agitate a damaged area, causing serious problems.

Drone Roof Inspections

At Willingtons we provide professional drone roof inspections, complete with still images and video footage. Our state-of-the-art drones allow us to view every part of your roof in detail with our feet firmly on the ground. Our drones are operated by fully CAA-qualified drone pilots and capture images and film in full 4K, letting us find even the tiniest defect in your roof. Even the bits that are normally difficult to reach. It also eliminates the need for scaffolding or tradesmen walking over your roof!

During your drone roof inspections we will look at the condition of:

  • Roof coverings
  • Ridge tiles
  • Guttering & rainwater systems
  • Valleys & gulley’s
  • Flat roofs
  • Roof and window skylights
  • Dormer roofs
  • General roof structure

Once the inspection is finished we’ll provide you with a report, so you know exactly what’s going on and if you need to take action.
