Residential UAV Roof Reviews
Professional drone-based roof condition reviews for homeowners, buyers, landlords and property managers.
A residential UAV roof review provides a safer, faster and less intrusive way to understand the visible condition of your roof and high-level external building areas.
Altivis captures high-resolution aerial imagery of visible roof areas including roof coverings, ridges, valleys, gutters, flashings, chimneys, roof edges, dormers and hard-to-view elevations.
The output is a structured, image-led report designed to help you understand visible concerns, likely priorities and practical next steps before speaking with contractors, insurers or specialist advisors.
When a residential roof review can help
A UAV roof review can be useful when you need clearer visual evidence without immediately arranging ladders, scaffolding or disruptive access.
Common reasons include:
- Storm damage concerns
- Visible slipped, cracked or missing tiles
- Leaks, damp patches or water ingress concerns
- Pre-sale or pre-purchase roof checks
- Landlord maintenance records
- Contractor quotation support
- Chimney, gutter or flashing concerns
- Peace of mind before instructing repair work
- Post-works verification after completed repairs
