    Drone survey Leeds

  • Using advanced UAV platforms equipped with optical and thermal sensors, we carry out detailed roof inspections across Leeds and West Yorkshire, identifying defects that are often missed during ground-based checks.

    A drone roof survey allows us to safely inspect:

    • Flat and pitched roofs

    • Commercial and industrial units

    • Schools and academies

    • Warehouses and retail premises

    • Residential blocks and large dwellings

    All surveys are completed without physical access to the roof, significantly reducing risk, cost, and downtime.

  • Our roof surveys are commonly used to identify:

    • Failed or damaged membranes

    • Ponding water and drainage issues

    • Cracked, displaced, or missing tiles

    • Degraded flashing and edge details

    • Thermal heat loss and insulation failure

    • Moisture ingress and trapped water

    • Storm and impact damage

    Thermal roof surveys are particularly effective for locating hidden moisture and insulation defects that are not visible to the naked eye.

  • Each roof survey includes a clear, client-ready deliverable, designed for decision-making rather than technical jargon.

    You will receive:

    • High-resolution aerial imagery

    • Thermal images where applicable

    • Annotated defect imagery

    • Clear findings and observations

    • Optional comparison surveys for condition tracking

    Reports are suitable for internal records, FM assurance, landlord compliance, insurance claims, or contractor tendering.

  • Compared to scaffolding or MEWP access, drone roof surveys offer:

    • No working-at-height risk

    • No disruption to occupants or operations

    • Faster mobilisation and completion

    • Lower overall inspection cost

    • Permanent visual evidence for audit and assurance

    In many cases, a drone roof inspection can be completed within a single visit, with results delivered shortly after.
