Drone Surveys
A clearer view before roofing work begins
Aerial imagery can show slipped tiles, ridge defects, visible flashing issues and other signs of wear without relying only on a ground-level view. It helps us make a more informed first assessment.

Useful where access is awkward
Steep roofs, extensions, multiple roof levels and restricted access can make an initial physical inspection difficult. A drone can help identify where closer inspection or repair work should focus.
A drone survey can help with
- Roof checks from above
- Difficult or restricted roof access
- More informed roofing quotes
- Visible condition checks before a property purchase
Helpful for property purchase decisions
A drone roof check can also provide useful visible information when you are considering a property purchase and want a better idea of likely roof defects before committing.

Roofing RepairsLeak Detection & Repair
A roof leak is not always directly above the stain you can see indoors. Water can travel along battens, underlay, timbers and roof junctions before becoming visible. Mode Roofing investigates likely entry points and repairs the underlying roofing fault.
