Drone Inspection Versus Physical Roof Inspection

Drone inspection gives complete external coverage without scaffold or roof access — the right choice for tall, steep or fragile roofs and for pre-purchase surveys.

Physical inspection lets a roofer check the roof void, insulation and underlay from inside, and hands-on-assess the covering where safe access exists.

For most properties, the two are complementary. A drone survey plus a loft inspection gives the most complete picture at the lowest cost and risk.
