Roof Surveys

Drone roof surveys across Yorkshire and the UK providing detailed condition reports, thermal imaging and photographic records without scaffolding.

Roof inspections traditionally require scaffolding, rope access or elevated work platforms all of which are costly, slow to mobilise and introduce risk to personnel. Hummingbird Technical Services provides professional drone roof surveys across Yorkshire and the wider UK, delivering high-resolution visual and thermal inspection data from a safe distance, quickly and without disruption to building occupants or operations.

Operating from our base at Doncaster Sheffield Airport, South Yorkshire, our CAA-authorised team deploys survey-grade drones with high-resolution optical cameras and, where specified, calibrated radiometric thermal payloads. We cover all roof types - flat, pitched, industrial, heritage, single-ply membrane, built-up felt, metal deck, slate and tile, producing a complete photographic and thermal record of condition in a single visit. All imagery is processed in-house and delivered as an annotated report ready for your facilities team, insurer or building surveyor.

What You Receive

Every drone roof survey is delivered as a complete inspection package, including:

  • High-resolution optical imagery - full roof coverage and close-focus defect shots
  • Annotated condition report - defects identified, labelled and prioritised
  • 4K video walkthrough - full roof perimeter and plane coverage
  • Thermal imaging data (where specified) - moisture, heat loss and membrane failure detection
  • Roof orthomosaic - scaled, georeferenced plan view of the full roof area
  • Digital archive - all imagery retained and available for future comparison surveys
