What you get

Numbers a roofer can quote from

The drone photographs every surface from above and at an angle. The photos are processed into a roof plan with measured areas, lengths and pitches.

Roof measurement for solar panels

For a solar quote you need the usable area of each surface, its pitch and orientation, and where chimneys, skylights and vents are. The roof plan shows all of it, so the panel layout can be drawn before anyone climbs the roof.

Drone, satellite or tape measure?

  • Satellite data is quick but coarse: small dormers, chimneys and roof edges are often missing or off by tens of centimetres.
  • Tape measure on the roof is exact where you can reach, but needs a ladder or scaffold and takes hours on a complex roof.
  • Drone: one short flight, no one on the roof, every surface measured from current photos you can check yourself.

FAQ

Roof measurement questions

Something else? Ask by email — I reply within one business day.

Is this an official survey?

No. It is a measured plan for planning, quotes and material lists. A legally binding survey needs a licensed surveyor.

What does a drone roof measurement cost?

From €265 for one roof up to 250 m², VAT included. Larger or complex roofs and several buildings are quoted individually, always as a fixed price before the flight.

Can you measure a roof covered in snow?

Snow hides edges and joints, so we wait for a clear roof. Light rain only moves the date.

Do I need to be at home?

No, as long as I can reach a safe take-off spot near the building.

Which files do I get?

A PDF roof plan and JPG photos. Other formats on request.
