Drone surveys in Warrington: roof surveys and inspections between Liverpool and Manchester
Drone roof surveys, building inspections, thermal surveys and measured surveys across Warrington and the surrounding towns and villages.
Warrington is about 15 miles from our head office in Speke, so it’s one of the areas we cover most often. We handle the airspace permissions, fly the site and deliver everything to your online portal.
Drone surveys across Warrington
The town, its new-town estates and the villages around it.
Warrington mixes Victorian terraces near the town centre with large new-town estates, business parks and distribution sites at Birchwood, Omega and along the M6 and M62. Large commercial roofs, warehouse estates and housing stock are all well suited to drone surveys.
We survey for housing associations, councils, surveyors, landlords and logistics operators across the borough, as well as homes in Lymm, Grappenhall and the surrounding villages.

Warrington sits between two major airports. These are the checks we make for every Warrington address before we quote.
Liverpool John Lennon Airport
Controlled airspace around Liverpool John Lennon Airport lies to the west of Warrington. We check every site against it and arrange permission where needed.
Manchester Airport
Manchester Airport’s controlled airspace lies to the east. Sites on that side of the borough are checked against it.
City Airport & Heliport, Barton
The airfield at Barton, to the north east, has its own restricted zone. We check sites in the north of the borough against it.
Rail lines
The West Coast Main Line and the Liverpool–Manchester lines run through Warrington Bank Quay and Warrington Central. Network Rail has its own rules for drones near its property, on top of CAA rules.
Town centre and motorways
Busy streets and sites near the M6, M62 and M56 need careful planning so we never fly over traffic or people.
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 Warrington sites.
- Airspace checked for every address before we quote
- Permissions requested on your behalf
- Risk assessment and method statement (RAMS) for every job

Warrington is about 15 miles from our Liverpool head office, so we can usually get to site quickly. Timing depends on the permissions your site needs and the weather. We’ll give you a date when we send your quote.

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.
