Book an inspectionSafer, faster and more detailed roof inspections
We use high-resolution drones to assess the condition of your roof safely and efficiently, with no ladders and no scaffolding. The drone photographs every slope, valley and ridge from angles you cannot see from the ground.
A traditional inspection means erecting scaffolding or sending someone up a ladder, which is expensive, slow and carries real risk. A drone reaches the steep, tall and fragile roofs that traditional access cannot cover safely, and it gets close enough to show an individual cracked tile or a failing piece of flashing.
Most inspections take minutes rather than days. You get clear imagery and an honest assessment of what needs doing, without paying for access equipment first.
A survey is most useful repeated rather than commissioned once in a crisis, because two sets of photographs a year apart show what is moving and what is stable. That is why a drone flight is one of the items in our planned roof care and maintenance service, alongside gutter clearing, roof cleaning and roofline repairs.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
A drone reaches steep, tall or fragile roofs safely and quickly, with no scaffolding or ladders. It captures detailed imagery so problems are identified early, which is safer and usually more cost-effective.
Yes. We provide clear imagery and a report of what we find, with honest recommendations for any work needed.
Standalone drone roof surveys run roughly £150 to £350 for most UK houses as an indicative market rate for 2026, with the range driven by roof size, how many elevations need covering and how detailed a written report you want. K & M Roofing Solutions does not charge for a drone survey where it is part of assessing work we would then quote for, which covers most of the inspections we fly. A paid standalone condition report, for a purchase or a dispute where no works follow, is priced separately. Either way we agree it with you before we come out, and any binding price for works follows the survey.
Most residential roofs are covered in around fifteen minutes on site. Larger commercial and industrial roofs take longer because there is more area to fly, but the flight is still a fraction of the time scaffolding would need. We report our findings back to you shortly after the visit.
Very little. The drone takes off from the ground or the garden and we never walk on the roof itself, so there is no disturbance to your tiles or your day. All we need is a safe launch spot and permission from the property owner.
Wind and rain do, the season mostly does not. We do not fly in heavy rain or strong gusts, because both affect stability and neither produces usable imagery, so an inspection occasionally moves by a day or two in unsettled weather. Otherwise winter surveys are perfectly workable and in some ways better, since bare trees give clearer sightlines to the roof and low sun picks out lifted tiles and standing water that a flat summer light hides. We check conditions on the morning and tell you straight away if it needs moving.
