Drone Roof Inspection in Burgess Hill

A drone roof inspection is a visual survey of a roof's condition — tiles, flashing, guttering, valleys and chimneys — carried out by our CAA-registered drone pilot and recorded as photos and video, without the cost, time or access disruption of scaffolding or ladders.

In Burgess Hill, that covers St Andrews, Gattons, Kings Way, Fairfield, Leylands, Victoria Park, Wivelsfield Green. Burgess Hill has expanded substantially since the Victorian era, with a historic core supplemented by significant 20th and 21st-century housing development, including several large newer estates on the town's edges. This mix means both period-property refurbishment and more straightforward extension work on modern housing are common locally.

Property styles in Burgess Hill

Victorian and Edwardian housing sits close to the town centre, with substantial areas of postwar and recent new-build estate housing across the wider town. Newer estate housing typically has more straightforward extension potential, subject to individual developer restrictive covenants which we advise clients to check.

Planning considerations

Mid Sussex District Council is the local planning authority. Some newer developments carry restrictive covenants set by the original developer that go beyond standard planning control — worth checking your title deeds alongside our planning assessment.

    Survey flight

    Flying the roof to capture full photo and video coverage, typically under an hour on site.

  3. 03

    Review

    Reviewing the footage for damage, wear or areas needing a closer look.

    Report

    Providing the photos, video and a written summary of what was found.

FAQs

Drone Roof Inspection in Burgess Hill: FAQs

Do you provide drone roof inspection across all of Burgess Hill?

Yes, we cover the RH15 postcode area in full, including St Andrews, Gattons, Kings Way, Fairfield, Leylands, Victoria Park, Wivelsfield Green.

Is your drone pilot CAA registered?

Yes, our drone roof inspections are carried out by our own CAA-registered pilot, flying our own equipment — not a third-party subcontractor.

Can you fly near Gatwick or other controlled airspace?

It depends on the exact location — properties inside a flight restriction zone may need additional CAA permission or may not be flyable at all. We check this before booking rather than after, so you know upfront whether a survey is possible for your property.

Do new-build estates in Burgess Hill have restrictions on extending?

Some do, through developer-imposed restrictive covenants in addition to normal planning control. We recommend checking your title deeds, and we factor this into our feasibility advice where relevant.
