Drone Roof Surveys and Inspections in Herefordshire

Traditional roof inspections can be time-consuming, costly, and disruptive. Scaffolding or ladders are often required, which increases risks, adds expense, and still may not provide the full picture of your roof’s condition.

With Full View’s drone roof inspections in Hereford and throughout Herefordshire, you get a faster, safer, and more cost-effective way to assess your property. Ultra-HD 4K imagery and video give you a complete aerial perspective, while our roofing expertise turns those visuals into clear, practical reports.

Why Would You Need a Drone Roof Survey?

There are several reasons why your home or business needs a drone roof survey:

  • Spotting Damage Early: Finding leaks, standing water, debris build-up and weather-related damage, and monitoring the roof over time so wear is caught before it becomes a major issue.

  • Planning Repairs & Upgrades: Inspecting ageing coverings, structural concerns and components like gutters, skylights and chimneys to prioritise effective repairs, replacements or improvements.

  • Meeting Insurance or Compliance Needs: Producing clear, time-stamped records you can use for insurance claims, regulatory or safety checks, or pre-sale/pre-purchase roof assessments.

Commercial Roof Inspection

We deliver reliable commercial roof inspections designed to highlight maintenance requirements and uncover issues early on, helping you protect your premises and avoid expensive repair bills later on.

Because insurers and health & safety authorities often expect regular, documented surveys, missing these checks could put your cover at risk. Our drone inspections provide a practical solution - fast, affordable, and non-intrusive - so your business can continue operating without interruption.

Heat Loss Surveys

With advanced thermal imaging, our drones carry out heat-loss surveys that identify exactly where warmth is escaping from your property. On commercial premises, the same technology can also detect electrical faults in and around the roof.

By finding areas where insulation needs improvement, these thermographic inspections help cut down on wasted energy and bring running costs down - an especially valuable benefit as energy prices continue to rise.

What Our Customers Say About Working With Us

  • “We came across Alex and Full View when we were looking to get some of our managed properties' roofs surveyed. Alex was great from start to finish, and the reports produced were exactly what we needed in order to make a clear proactive maintenance plan with regards to roof works!

    We’ll certainly be using Full View for some of our other properties moving forward!”

    - Brad Clark, Commercial Roof Survey

  • “Alex arrived punctually and was very friendly and polite. After checking conditions in our attic and two areas of water ingress, he began his thorough drone inspection externally.

    Following the inspection, he took time to show me areas of concern. This was followed up with photos and full inspection report a few days later.

    Alex was professional throughout and I have no hesitation in recommending him if you need an independent roof inspection."

    - Alison Toomey, Residential Roof Survey.

  • “I’ve worked with Alex from Full View on several drone roof surveys across London over the past couple of years and he has consistently provided an excellent service. A few of the sites were in particularly built-up areas with very limited space for drone navigation, but Alex handled everything with confidence and precision. He takes care of all the necessary permits and permissions, which makes the process completely hassle-free.

    The way he organises and transfers the photos into clearly labelled files makes it far easier to share visuals with clients and incorporate them into our reports. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for any drone survey work, especially in complex or restricted environments."

    - Den, Commercial Roof Survey

    FAQs

    Do you have permission to fly your drones in Hereford?

    Yes, our team has the required permissions to fly drones in Hereford’s airspace due to our Operational Authorisation from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).

    Can I use your drone reports for insurance purposes?

    Yes, many of our clients use our inspection reports to support successful insurance claims. Every report provides a clear, detailed assessment of your roof’s condition, highlighting any damage or faults. You can pass this straight on to your insurer or contractor, making the claims and repair process faster and simpler.

    What data can your drones capture?

    Our DJI drones feature 4K cameras, thermal sensors, and high-powered lighting, allowing us to capture crisp, high-definition images and video in daylight as well as low-light conditions. We also offer optional thermal imaging to show areas of heat loss and other hidden problems.

    What’s included in your drone survey report?

    Rather than just supplying raw images, our reports combine high-resolution visuals with professional insights from experienced drone surveyors and former roofing specialists. The result is a clear, actionable report that not only highlights issues but also outlines the best next steps.

    We can also generate accurate 3D models using advanced software, providing you with another powerful way to visualise and assess the condition of your roof.

    Our pricing in Hereford (and across Herefordshire) follows the same structure we use nationwide, with costs based on factors such as the survey area size, the scale of the property, and the complexity of its roof design. For example:

    • A straightforward single-storey flat roof survey often starts at around £200.
