Peak Roofing carries out professional drone roof surveys across Rathgar 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.

Properties in Rathgar are predominantly Victorian and Edwardian large detached and semi-detached red-brick houses, some 1930s detached residences, period conversions. Common roof issues we address here include natural slate replacement and repair, lead valley and hip flashing failure, chimney stack repointing and rebuild, moss and lichen growth on older pitches, failing valley gutters on large period properties. Our roofers understand the construction methods and typical materials used in Rathgar — every inspection is free and every job begins with a written quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

A standard residential drone roof survey in Rathgar 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 Rathgar 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 Rathgar 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 Rathgar. 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 Rathgar, 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.
