Drone Roof Surveys Precise Reliable Cost Effective
Revolutionising Roof Inspections Across the UK
Say goodbye to traditional roof inspections that are time-consuming, costly, and risky. At Sky Scan Surveys, we leverage state-of-the-art drone technology to provide fast, accurate, and affordable roof surveys for commercial properties. Whether you need to assess storm damage, identify insulation issues, or create a detailed roof condition report, our certified drone pilots deliver results you can trust.
Drone Roof Inspections | Fast, Accurate & Cost effective
Traditional roof inspection methods can be time-consuming, expensive, and dangerous. Inspectors often have to climb ladders or scaffolding to reach the roof, which can be risky and lead to accidents.
Imagine inspecting a large commercial roof. The building is several stories tall and has a complex roofline. Traditional inspection methods would require the inspectors to climb up and down ladders, use rope access, scaffolding or elevated platform multiple times, which is dangerous and time-consuming
Drone roof inspections offer a safe, efficient, and affordable way to inspect roofs of all types. Drones can quickly and easily fly over the roof, taking high-resolution images and videos of the entire surface area. This data can then be used to create a digital model or have high-resolution images available online so that anyone can identify defects/damage without the need to put the inspector at risk.
