Drone roof surveys · Cumbria & the Lakes
Cumbria gets some of the wettest weather in England — your roof works harder here than almost anywhere in the country. We survey it from the air, catch the problems the rain finds first, and give you a report you can actually act on.
The weather up here
The Lakes wring the rain out of every weather system that crosses the Irish Sea, and it shows on the roofs. Constant damp keeps moss and lichen thriving in the valleys and gutters, slate delaminates over the freeze-thaw winters, and wind off the Solway lifts anything that is not properly bedded down.
Traditional Lakeland slate is beautiful and tough, but when a slate finally lets go the water gets in fast — and on a valley roof in Kendal or a stone farmhouse out toward the fells, you rarely see it coming from the ground. From the air, we do.
Roofs we fly
From Carlisle’s Victorian terraces to the slate and stone of Penrith, Kendal and the Lake District villages, we survey the lot — homes, farms and commercial roofs alike. Traditional slate, heavy stone, and the flat-roofed extensions half of them have gained over the years.
