Drone roof surveys · the Scottish Borders
The Borders take the weather off the hills and hold onto it. We survey the region’s stone and slate roofs from the air — from Peebles across to Berwickshire — and hand you a clear, dated report.
The weather up here
Border weather is hill weather — driving rain, wind that swings round with the valleys, and long cold snaps that work every joint loose. The region’s stone farmhouses, town-centre tenements and the great listed roofs of the Border abbeys were built for it, but slate slips, lead splits and lime pointing washes out over time.
Left unseen, a small fault on an exposed Borders roof does not stay small for long. A drone gets eyes on the whole roof in one flight — no scaffold hauled out to a rural steading, nobody up a ladder in the wind.
Roofs we fly
From the abbey towns of Melrose, Jedburgh and Kelso to the mill terraces of Galashiels and Hawick, we fly the traditional and listed stone the Borders is full of, as well as everyday homes and farm buildings. Berwick-upon-Tweed sits right on the line — we cover both sides of it.
