What Our Drone Surveys Do For Your Warehouse

Warehouse roofs are constantly exposed to the elements, making them vulnerable to gradual wear and hidden damage. Without regular inspections, small issues like minor leaks can quickly escalate into costly repairs, operational disruption, and even damage to stock or equipment.

Our routine industrial roof surveys give warehouse managers a proactive way to stay in control. By identifying problems early, you can plan maintenance more effectively, avoid expensive emergency call-outs, and extend the lifespan of your roof. This is especially important for large-scale warehouse buildings, where issues can go unnoticed for long periods due to the structure's size and inaccessibility.

A warehouse survey from Full View is also valuable for:

  • Protecting inventory and other commercial assets from water ingress
  • Maintaining energy efficiency by detecting areas of heat loss or poor insulation
  • Supporting insurance and compliance requirements with documented inspections
  • Reducing long-term maintenance costs through preventative action

How Our Warehouse Roof Surveys Work

Our warehouse roof surveys are designed to give you complete insight into your roof’s condition while keeping your operations running smoothly:

Pre-Survey Planning

We begin with a consultation to understand your building and any areas of concern. This lets us plan the drone flight path and ensure minimal disruption to your warehouse operations.

Aerial Inspection

Our trained drone pilots deploy DJI drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and thermal sensors to capture every part of your roof. This allows us to inspect hard-to-reach areas safely, without the need for expensive scaffolding.

Data Analysis

All visual and thermal data is carefully reviewed to identify leaks, trapped moisture, insulation issues, structural faults, and other potential problems before they become costly.

Report Delivery

Testimonials

  • “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 Building Survey, London.
  • “I recently had a roof inspection carried out by Alex at Full View Limited. The level of service and quality of work was excellent and the time taken was so quick in comparison to having to have scaffolding erected so that a survey could be done. The images and reporting were amazing and any work that was required was so clearly defined. The result being that any contractor I employ can see immediately what has to be done. I would not hesitate to recommend Full View Limited for such professional and competent work carried out.”

    - Edna Kaye, Residential Roof Survey. Oxfordshire
  • “We have worked with Full View on a number of our projects. They have provided us with multiple services, including field mapping, stills to aid planning proposals and drone photography. The quality of the work is exceptional and is always delivered quickly and efficiently. Alex goes above and beyond to provide clear, reliable and accessible data. We cannot recommend Full View highly enough.”
