Overview
Cornerstone Methodist Church in Bradford, a significant community landmark, required a thorough roof inspection to assess its condition and ensure its ongoing maintenance. Given the age and structure of the building, a non-intrusive yet detailed inspection was necessary to provide a clear understanding of any potential issues.
The Challenge
The church’s complex roof design, high elevation, and potential structural vulnerabilities made traditional inspection methods difficult, time-consuming, and costly. Access limitations and the need to avoid unnecessary disruption to the church and its surroundings further emphasised the importance of an efficient and safe inspection solution.
The Solution
Using cutting-edge drone technology, we carried out a comprehensive aerial survey of the roof, capturing high-resolution images and video footage. This approach enabled us to assess hard-to-reach areas with precision, identifying any damage, deterioration, or maintenance requirements. Our detailed Chartered Surveyor Roof Condition Report provided the client with valuable insights and recommendations for necessary repairs, ensuring the preservation and longevity of this historic church.
