Peak Roofing carries out professional drone roof surveys across Portobello from €200. Scaffolding a Dublin roof costs €800 to €2,500 before inspection begins — a drone survey identifies the same problems in under an hour with no scaffolding, no ladders and no disruption. Every tile, ridge, chimney stack, flashing, valley and flat roof section is captured in HD from above. Written report and footage delivered same day.

Frequently Asked Questions

A standard residential drone roof survey in Portobello costs from €200, including on-site footage review and a written report with supporting screenshots. Compare this to scaffolding costs of €800 to €2,500 for a standard Dublin property before a roofer has even looked at the problem. Where the drone survey identifies repair work, the survey fee is credited against the job if you book Peak Roofing to carry out the repairs.
Most standard residential drone surveys in Portobello take 30 to 45 minutes from arrival to departure. Larger or more complex roofs — including multi-unit properties, flat roof extensions and properties with multiple chimney stacks — may take up to 60 minutes. This covers pre-flight safety checks, the flight itself, on-site footage review and a walkthrough of the findings with you. You will also receive a written report with imagery for your records.
We do not fly in rain, high winds or poor visibility. If your survey needs to be rescheduled due to weather we will contact you promptly to arrange an alternative date at no additional charge.
A scaffold inspection allows a roofer to physically probe every surface — it remains the most thorough method for complex repairs or where timber condition needs to be assessed. A drone survey is faster, cheaper and less disruptive. It is the ideal starting point for homeowners in Portobello wanting to understand their roof condition before committing to scaffold costs. In many cases drone footage provides enough detail to plan and quote the repair without a scaffold survey.
Yes. High-resolution drone footage is increasingly accepted by insurers as evidence of storm damage or pre-existing roof condition in Portobello. After a storm event a drone survey can document damage quickly before further deterioration occurs, providing clear visual evidence for your claim. We have provided drone survey reports to support claims with Aviva, AXA, Allianz and FBD. We can provide a written report formatted for insurance submission.
A drone survey is particularly valuable after storm damage — Dublin storms including Storm Éowyn in January 2025 and Storm Babet in October 2023 caused widespread roof damage that needed rapid assessment. It is also useful before buying a property in Portobello, for annual maintenance checks on older Victorian and Edwardian properties common in south Dublin, and as a first step before committing to scaffolding costs for any roof work.
