Green Squirrel Energy now offer professional and certified drone surveys and inspections for domestic and commercial applications.
Using the latest drone technology, we are able to visit your home / commercial property to
conduct a thorough survey of your existing roof condition.
What is a drone survey?
A drone roof survey involves an experienced, qualified operator flying an unmanned aerial vehicle up to and around the roof to capture high-quality video and photos which can then be assessed to identify any damage or areas of concern.
It can be a useful way to find out about the state of
your roof, quickly and easily without the expense of hiring an engineer and scaffolding.
Traditional roof survey versus a drone roof survey
Traditional roof surveys, carried out by surveyors, tend to be more time-consuming, costly and potentially hazardous; requiring people to work at height and navigate hard-to-reach areas.
Using drone technology, however, roof surveys are quicker and more cost-effective, and can offer
more detailed results than a traditional survey.
Whereas with a traditional roof survey, you may need to pay for scaffolding to be erected to safely
access and investigate the roof, with a drone survey, a qualified and certified surveyor will fly compact drones up to the area that needs assessing. This is particularly helpful if your roof is fragile or in an especially poor condition. It also means a drone survey is much less disruptive, the opportunity for accidents such as objects dropped from height is minimised, and their simplicity means it’s less labour intensive and quicker to complete.
