🏚️ ROOF INSPECTION · BORDEAUX (33) · €200–650 PER JOB
Drone roof inspection in Bordeaux
From the old centre near the Garonne to the houses of newer districts, roofs in Bordeaux do not share the same pathologies — but they share the need for checks. The drone documents tiles, flashing and stacks in close-up, with a photo report. In Bordeaux as across the department (33), a local pilot travels with the equipment the mission requires — free quote within one working day.
The Bordeaux-Mérignac CTR, shared with air base 106, covers the west of the conurbation: urban flights require coordination with both civil and military aviation. Sensitive sites abound — the Dassault plant and Mérignac aerospace zone, the Bacalan submarine base, the Aquitaine bridge — and the UNESCO-listed quaysides fall under the built-up-area scenario. The Gironde metropolis is a complete market: booming real estate around Euratlantique and the Bassins à flot, prestigious wine estates (Médoc, Pessac-Léognan, Saint-Émilion) that are heavy users of vineyard mapping and monitoring, river tourism on the Garonne, and structural inspections from the Chaban-Delmas bridge to the Cité du Vin.

Flying in Bordeaux: the local framework
Roof inspections in Bordeaux happen at very low height, which remains compatible with the nearby controlled airspace (CTR de Bordeaux-Mérignac (aéroport et base aérienne 106)) under the right protocol: the extra lead time is days, not weeks.
Roof inspection is flown in the open category directly above the inspected building, below 50 m; in dense urban areas a specific-category declaration covers flight near third parties. Full regulations and rates: roof inspection across France →

Frequently asked questions
Roof inspection in Bordeaux: what budget should you plan?
Allow €200–650 per job — the 2026 French market range, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. In Bordeaux, coordination with the local airspace is included in the quote and arranged within a few days.
When should you have your roof inspected in Bordeaux?
After every high-wind or hail event, before buying a property, and ideally once a year in spring. The Nouvelle-Aquitaine climate wears tiles, slates and flashings differently: the photo report locates each defect on the roof and prioritises repairs.
How long does a roof inspection take?
For a detached house, 30 to 45 minutes on site is enough. An industrial roof or a co-owned building takes 1 to 3 hours. The report is delivered within 48 hours.
