Drone Surveys
Drone Roof Surveys in Derby
Large industrial roofs, extraction stacks and high-level plant inspected in detail across Derby, without shutting down access or hiring a MEWP.
Professional Drone Surveys in Derby
Falls from height remain the leading cause of workplace fatalities, and a great deal of that risk is taken on simply to look at something. Drone surveys let you inspect roofs, gutters, chimneys, towers and high-level structures in detail without anybody leaving the ground, no scaffold, no MEWP and no access hire.
Based in Coalville, Leicestershire, Integral Safety is ideally positioned to serve businesses in Derby. Choosing a local consultancy means a survey booked around the weather window rather than around a long journey, and a consultant who can return quickly if conditions change.
Derby's industrial estates are full of large-span roofs with rooflights, extraction stacks, ductwork and plant at high level. Inspecting any of it traditionally means either a MEWP inside a working yard or somebody on a fragile roof, and both bring real risk.
Rooflights deserve particular mention. They are the single most common thing people fall through on industrial roofs, they weather until they are structurally useless, and from the ground you cannot tell. A drone survey shows their condition clearly.
Business and Industry in Derby
Derby is one of the country's leading centres for advanced manufacturing and engineering, with aerospace, rail and automotive at its core and a deep supply chain of specialist SMEs feeding them. That supply chain is where most of our Derby work sits: precision engineering, fabrication, surface treatment and assembly firms who face higher-hazard processes and demanding customer audits.

What We Commonly Find in Derby
Recurring issues we come across doing this work locally. If any of these sound familiar, they are all fixable.
- Degraded rooflights that would not support anyone, with no marking or protection
- Extraction ductwork and stacks corroding out of sight at high level
- Roof plant needing inspection where access would mean a shutdown

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you survey while our Derby site is operating?
Usually yes, and that is one of the main advantages. There is no scaffold to erect and no MEWP occupying your yard, so most surveys happen with the business running normally. We agree exclusion arrangements for the area directly beneath the flight as a precaution.
Why do rooflights matter so much?
Because they are the most common thing people fall through. They weather and become brittle, they often look much the same as when installed, and once painted over or dirty they can be hard to distinguish from the surrounding sheet. Knowing where they are and what condition they are in is basic information for anyone who might ever need to go up there.
Do you carry out drone roof surveys in Derby?
Yes. We survey commercial and industrial premises throughout Derby and the surrounding area. Most surveys are completed in a few hours and you receive high-resolution imagery with a written report identifying what we found.
What about airspace restrictions and the weather?
We check airspace restrictions before every flight and operate within the Civil Aviation Authority rules, including near airports and over built-up areas, which matters in this region given East Midlands Airport. Weather is the main scheduling constraint: high wind and heavy rain stop flying, so we build a little flexibility into booking rather than promise a fixed hour.
