How Our Aerial Roofing Inspections Work

We have refined our roof survey process to ensure it is completely hassle-free for homeowners in Oxted. When you book our drone services, our fully insured pilot will arrive at your property and conduct a brief site safety check. We then launch our state-of-the-art drone, capturing 4K video and high-resolution imagery of your entire roofing system. This includes hard-to-reach areas like chimney stacks, lead flashings, hidden roof valleys, and flat roof extensions.Once the flight is complete, our experienced roofers analyse the footage to spot subtle signs of wear, such as degraded mortar on your ridge tiles, failing EPDM membranes, or blocked UPVC guttering. We compile these findings into a detailed visual report. If any remedial work is required, we provide a transparent, itemised, no-obligation quote so you know exactly what needs fixing and how much it will cost.

Local Compliance and Historic Property Care

Oxted and the wider Tandridge district feature a beautiful mix of modern builds and historic properties, many of which sit within designated conservation areas. Traditional inspections on older period homes can sometimes risk accidental damage to fragile clay tiles or natural slates. Our drone surveys eliminate this physical impact entirely, ensuring your property is treated with the utmost care and respect.As trusted local experts, we understand Surrey building regulations and local conservation rules inside out. If our aerial survey reveals that your roof requires substantial repairs or a full replacement, we guide you through any necessary building control or planning permission steps. We handle the red tape safely, positioning Kevington Roofing as your knowledgeable partner in maintaining compliant and secure homes.

What Should I Expect From a Drone Roof Survey in Oxted?

Are drone roof surveys weather dependent? Yes, to capture the best high definition aerial photography and operate safely, we require relatively dry conditions with low wind speeds. If the weather is unsuitable on the day, we will quickly reschedule your inspection for the earliest clear window.Can I use a drone survey for a house purchase? Absolutely. A pre-purchase roof survey in Surrey is highly recommended. It highlights hidden defects like poor thermal efficiency, failing leadwork, or structural sagging before you exchange contracts, potentially saving you thousands.Do I need scaffolding for the survey itself? No, and that is the primary advantage. The drone acts as our eyes in the sky, completely removing the need for initial scaffolding or ladders during the diagnostic phase.

"Reliable and prompt - the Kevington team was able to view the property and provide options and transparent, itemised quotes on the same day I called. After deciding what level of work I wanted done, they returned soon after to carry out the roof repairs to a high standard without me even needing to be there."

Philip Day

"Highly recommended! Great price! First class job. Nothing was too much for these lads, very polite, got the job done and more. When they had finished they cleaned up that well, even took some of my own rubbish away for me. Well done lads! Not often you get a good, honest local roofer anymore! Thanks again."

Drone Survey FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our high-resolution drone roof surveys, aerial inspections, and leak detection services across Swanley, Sevenoaks, Kent, and Croydon & South London.

How much does a drone roof survey cost in Swanley?

+

The price is significantly lower than traditional scaffolding. While costs can vary based on the size of the building, most residential drone surveys provide a massive saving. We provide a fixed, no-obligation quote before we start, so you know exactly what you are paying.

Can a drone find a roof leak?

+

Yes, they are incredibly effective for leak detection. By using high-resolution video, we can spot displaced tiles, failed flashing, or blocked gutters that cause water to back up. We can also look for damp patterns that indicate water ingress is happening behind the scenes.

Is an aerial roof inspection as good as a person on a ladder?

+

In many ways, it is better. A drone can reach heights and angles that are dangerous or impossible for a person on a ladder. We can hover inches away from a chimney stack or fly over a fragile conservatory roof without any risk of causing more damage.

Do I need to be home for the drone survey?

+

As long as we have access to the area around your property, you don't necessarily need to be there. Many of our customers in Sevenoaks and Swanley book us to fly while they are at work. We then send the high-definition footage and the report via email for them to review later.

Is it legal to fly a drone over my house for a survey?

+

Yes, when performed by a professional. We follow all CAA guidelines regarding distance from people and property. We make sure the flight is conducted safely and respects the privacy of your neighbours.
