No access equipment
No scaffolding, no ladders, no one working at height — the roof is assessed entirely from the air.
ZERO WORKING-AT-HEIGHT RISK
Every plane · no scaffold · one visit
Roof inspections, without the scaffolding.
Every roof plane covered from the air in one flight — no ladders, no scaffold hire, no one standing on the roof.
Why aerial inspection
Safer, faster, fully covered.
A drone reaches every angle a ladder can't, without anyone leaving the ground.
Every plane covered
Multiple passes and angles capture valleys, ridges and awkward junctions a ground-level look would miss.
RGB STILLS · MULTIPLE ANGLES
Fast turnaround
Typically a 15–20 minute flight, followed by an annotated report — far quicker than booking scaffold access.
SAME-VISIT CAPTURE
What you receive
A full picture of the roof.
Built for homeowners and landlords, letting and estate agents, managing agents and surveyors, and roofing or building contractors.
Evidence anyone can open. No ladder, no scaffold.
Inspections are delivered through our own client portal, so the roof can be examined properly by whoever needs to see it — owner, tenant, insurer or contractor — without anyone going up there and without any software to install.
A quote built from photographed evidence is a quote that can be challenged on facts rather than opinion.
- Every plane photographed close-range Including the elevations and valleys you cannot see from ground level.
- Defects marked and located So a contractor prices from evidence rather than from a guess.
- Structured condition reporting Set out in the format surveyors, insurers and managing agents expect.
- Share it with a link Landlord, tenant, insurer or roofer — nothing for them to buy or install.
- A dated record of the roof Useful for claims, dilapidations and pre-purchase questions later on.

How it runs
Booking to report.
Most residential inspections are booked, flown and reported within a week.
01
Booking & site check
We confirm the property, roof type, and any access or airspace considerations for the area.
02
Flight plan
A short flight plan is set for the property and its immediate surroundings, checked against local airspace.
03
Capture
Every roof plane photographed from multiple angles, typically a 15–20 minute flight.
04
Report & delivery
An annotated report highlighting any visible defects, alongside the full set of high-resolution stills.
What it costs
From £295 a property.
One price covering the flight, the imagery and the report — not an hourly rate with extras bolted on.

What moves it
Larger or more complex roofs, multiple buildings on one site, and anywhere the airspace needs additional permission. Terraces and estates are quoted per property with a reduction for several in one visit.
- Scaffold for a comparable inspection routinely runs to several hundred pounds before anyone looks at the roof
- Prices are what you pay — Lane Aerial Media Ltd is not VAT registered, so nothing is added on top
- Island work carries no travel charge; mainland properties are quoted with the crossing included
