Drone surveys in Stratford-upon-Avon: roof surveys for historic homes and listed buildings
Drone roof surveys, building inspections, thermal surveys and measured surveys across Stratford-upon-Avon, Alcester, Wellesbourne and south Warwickshire.
Timber-framed Tudor buildings, thatched cottages and conservation areas need careful handling. A drone records roofs, chimneys and high-level details in one visit, with nothing touching the building.
Drone surveys across Stratford-upon-Avon
The town, its villages and the market towns of south Warwickshire.
Stratford-upon-Avon is full of listed buildings, from the timber-framed Tudor houses in the town centre to the thatched cottages in Shottery and the villages around it. Their roofs, chimneys and gutters are hard to see from the street, and scaffolding them is slow, costly and disruptive in busy visitor areas.
Around the town we survey newer housing estates, schools, churches, hotels and business parks, as well as farms and homes in the villages of south Warwickshire. We work for homeowners, landlords, managing agents, surveyors, heritage owners and commercial clients.

These are the checks we make for every Stratford-upon-Avon address before we quote.
Wellesbourne airfield
Wellesbourne Mountford airfield, about 5 miles east of the town, is busy with light aircraft. We check every site against it and arrange permission where needed.
Heritage sites
Many buildings are listed or owned by heritage trusts and theatres. We arrange the landowner’s permission for take-off and landing as part of planning the survey.
Visitors and events
The town centre and the riverside are busy with visitors all year. We plan take-off spots and timings to keep clear of the public, and often fly early in the day.
Rail lines
Lines run from Stratford-upon-Avon station towards Birmingham and Leamington Spa. Network Rail has its own rules for drones near its property, on top of CAA rules.

Restricted doesn’t mean impossible
Restricted zones need more planning and the right permissions. They don’t stop a survey going ahead. Our pilots and office team work together to get approval for even the trickiest Stratford-upon-Avon sites.

Stratford-upon-Avon drone survey FAQs
Can’t find your answer? Call us on 0345 017 5592 or see all FAQs.
Do you cover the villages around Stratford-upon-Avon?
Yes. As well as the town, we survey Alcester, Wellesbourne, Henley-in-Arden, Shipston-on-Stour and the villages of south Warwickshire. Send us the address and we’ll confirm.
Can you survey thatched roofs?
Yes. A drone shows the condition of the thatch, the ridge and the chimneys without anyone climbing on the roof, so you can plan repairs or rethatching.
Can you survey listed Tudor buildings?
Yes. A drone survey doesn’t touch the building, so it’s well suited to listed buildings and conservation areas. You get detailed images of roofs, chimneys and timber details.
How quickly can you get to a site in Stratford-upon-Avon?
Stratford-upon-Avon is about 110 miles from our Liverpool head office, so we plan visits in advance and often group them together. We’ll give you a date when we send your quote.
How much does a drone roof survey in Stratford-upon-Avon cost?
Our drone roof inspections start from £250 + VAT for domestic properties and £350 + VAT for commercial properties, the same as anywhere else we cover. Larger sites and portfolios are quoted individually. See our drone survey prices.
Do I need to be on site for the survey?
Not usually. For most surveys we only need permission to access the area we fly from. If you’d like to see the inspection, we can live-stream it so you can watch remotely and direct the pilot.
