Roof Survey of Large Building Drone Service

Passionate – Dedicated – Professional

Why we do Roof and Building Inspections

Using our fleet, we capture high-resolution thermal and optical data in under an hour—no ladders, scaffolds, or roof access needed. You’ll pin down insulation gaps, moisture intrusion, and structural anomalies with 99% accuracy, then review actionable maps and 3D models in HiveLink.

Roof Inspections: Spot Heat Loss & Hidden Damage

Thermal imaging pinpoints heat escaping from windows, wall junctions, and roof penetrations—areas that typically account for 30–40% of home energy loss. Our drone scans also uncover:

  • Moisture & Leak Detection: Infrared highlights damp spots beneath tiles and around chimneys.

  • Surface Defects: Missing or damaged shingles, gutter blockages, and flashing failures with GPS-tagged photos.

  • Insulation Gaps: Cold bridges at wall-roof intersections, reducing heating efficiency.

Compared to a manual survey that can cost £250–£300 and take a full day, our drone roof inspection starts at £150 and wraps in under 60 minutes—saving you time and lowering risk.

Building Inspections: 3D Models & Structural Mapping

Beyond the roof, our drone building inspection creates millimeter-accurate 3D models and thermal facades to:

  • Visualize Building Envelope: Complete digital twins for renovation planning and BIM integration

  • Detect Thermal Bridges: Walls, windows, and doors are scanned to reveal insulation failures and draft points

  • Assess Cladding & Façade: Cracks, erosion, and material wear on vertical surfaces, chimneys, and parapets

Clients get both 3D point-cloud exports and interactive models in HiveLink, making remote measurements and stakeholder reviews effortless.
