Why have a drone survey?

Drone roof surveys are changing the industry when it comes to roof inspections. Here's why they're such a valuable part of our service:

  • Clear, high-quality visuals: Using our professional-grade drones, we capture detailed aerial images and video footage. This gives a full overview of your roof's condition, highlighting issues such as broken tiles, blocked gutters, or damaged flashing, while also showing areas that are still in good repair.
  • Storm damage inspections: After severe weather, a roof may be unsafe to access. Drones allow us to carry out full inspections without stepping foot on the roof, ensuring safety while still providing a comprehensive report on any storm damage.
  • Safer for everyone: There's no need for scaffolding, ladders, or unnecessary risk. Drone surveys allow us to assess even the most difficult-to-reach roofs without danger to our team—or disruption to your property.
  • Fast and efficient: Drone surveys are quick to carry out, which means less time on-site and faster turnarounds on quotes and assessments. In most cases, we can complete the survey and deliver a clear quote all in the same visit.
  • Before-and-after record: We document the state of your roof before any work begins, and we can provide "after" footage too, offering total transparency and reassurance that your roofing job has been carried out to the highest standard.

 

 

Included with your estimate

At Ramskill Roofing, we don't charge extra for drone surveys. They come as standard with every roof inspection and quote we provide.

(Please note if you are having a roof health check for insurance or mortgage enquiries there is a charge for this service)

 

Fully licensed and insured

We are fully licensed to operate drones professionally and adhere to all CAA regulations. Combined with our many years of roofing experience across Yorkshire, you can trust Ramskill Roofing to give an honest, expert assessment every time.


PLEASE NOTE

We do not provide thermal or infrared (heat) surveys. Our drone surveys focus solely on visible roofing condition.
​Leaks in roofing are easily detected through visual inspection, and heat maps are usually a waste of resources.

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Drone Roof Surveys

Do I need to pay extra for a drone roof survey?

No. Our drone surveys come included with any roofing quote or estimate we provide. It's all part of the service at Ramskill Roofing.


What areas do you cover?

We’re roofers in Goole and carry out roof repairs and drone roof surveys across East Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, and the wider Yorkshire region.


Is it safe to fly a drone over my property?

Yes. We are fully licensed and insured to operate drones professionally and always follow the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) requirements. Safety and privacy are always a top priority.


When is a drone roof survey most useful?

Drone surveys are especially helpful after storm damage, where the roof may be unsafe to access in person. They're also great for high, awkward, or fragile roofs, or simply for getting a clear overview of your roof's condition.


How long does a drone survey take?

In most cases, a drone survey takes less than an hour. We can often provide a full visual inspection and quote on the same visit.


Will I get a copy of the footage or photos?

Yes—if you’d like a copy of the photos or video, we’re happy to provide them. It’s a great way to see any problem areas and keep a record of your roof’s condition before and after work is completed.


Can you inspect flat roofs, chimneys, or guttering?

Absolutely. Our drones can capture high-resolution images of flat roofs, pitched roofs, chimneys, guttering, and even awkward valley or ridge areas that are difficult to inspect from ground level.


Do you provide thermal or infrared surveys?

No, we focus on visual roof inspections only. We do not offer thermal or infrared (heat-based) drone surveys.


What happens after the survey?

After the survey, we’ll talk you through our findings, show you the images or footage, and provide a clear, no-obligation quote for any recommended work.
