Drone Roof Inspection for short-let hosts
Anyone commissioning roof inspection on a Airbnb launch should know what they can expect back — that is what this page is for. Short-let hosts launching on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking need imagery that survives the tiny hero-crop and the phone-first browse — the shoot is scoped for that reality.

Proof
Where this has worked
Hosts using this pack have moved from launch to Superhost status inside a year on Merseyside and Wirral properties.
Context
Short-let launch imagery is a crop discipline.
The short version: annotated photo report identifying defects, slipped slates and flashing issues. The whole visit is crop-driven — the hero has to work at 400px wide.
Method
How this gets shot
low-altitude grid flights at 20–40m AGL with macro-zoom stills. The whole visit is crop-driven — the hero has to work at 400px wide.

Constraints
What shapes the shoot

FAQs
Questions we hear

Can the report be used for an insurance claim?
Yes — the Chester report is supplied as a date-stamped PDF accepted by major UK insurers.
What if the weather changes on the day?
Flights inside Chester are rescheduled at no charge if sustained wind exceeds 24 mph or rain is forecast.
Is a drone roof inspection in Chester cheaper than scaffolding?
For a typical Chester roof, drone inspection comes in well under the cost of even a single day's tower scaffold.
