Drone Roof Surveys in Barnstaple

A drone survey lets us inspect your roof safely and quickly from the air — close-up, high-resolution photos and video of every slope, ridge and chimney, with no need for scaffolding or ladders. We cover Barnstaple and the surrounding Devon area from our base near Bridgwater — local roofers, clear written quotes and guaranteed workmanship.

Drone Surveys for Barnstaple homes

Barnstaple, north Devon's main town, gets a lot of rain and exposed weather — which keeps us busy with leak repairs, re-roofs and storm work alongside roofline renewal across the town and the A361 villages.

A drone survey lets us inspect your roof safely and quickly from the air — close-up, high-resolution photos and video of every slope, ridge and chimney, with no need for scaffolding or ladders. It's ideal for tall, steep or hard-to-reach roofs, and a fast way to get eyes on a problem.

  • Heavy-rainfall leak repairs and sound drainage
  • Storm and wind damage on exposed roofs

How we install it

Step 1

Plan & check

We confirm the site is suitable to fly, check the airspace and weather, and plan the survey before we arrive.

Step 2

Survey from the air

We capture close-up, high-resolution photos and video of the whole roof — including the areas you simply can't see from the ground.

Step 3

Review & advise

We go through the imagery, summarise the roof's condition, and give you honest advice on any work needed — with the photos to back it up.

Drone Surveys in Barnstaple — your questions answered

Why use a drone instead of climbing up?

It's safer and quicker. We get close-up, high-resolution images of every part of the roof — including steep or fragile areas that are dangerous to access — without putting anyone on the roof or needing scaffolding just to take a look.

Can a drone survey find a leak?

It's excellent for spotting visible problems — slipped tiles, damaged flashing, blocked valleys, cracked ridges. Some leaks still need a hands-on look to confirm the exact source, but the survey often pinpoints where to focus.

Do you need permission to fly?

We fly responsibly and within the rules. Most domestic surveys are straightforward, but some locations — near airports or in restricted airspace — need extra checks or may not be possible. We confirm this before booking you in.

Will I get the photos?

Yes — where it's useful, we'll share the imagery so you have a clear record of your roof's condition, which is handy for insurance or when buying or selling.
