Drone Roof Inspections in Markham, ON

Markham combines preserved 19th-century main streets in Unionville with master-planned New Urbanist communities like Cornell and Cathedraltown, plus large estate lots along the Thornhill side. Each demands a slightly different aerial approach — and each gets the same complete report in 48 hours.

Why Markham homeowners and trades choose us

Markham has more architectural variety than its size suggests — heritage Main Street Unionville, dense Cornell rear-lane housing, large Bayview estates, and high-density condo corridors along Highway 7. Aerial inspection handles all of them better than a ladder ever could.

  • Heritage Unionville coverage. Main Street Unionville's 19th-century homes have steep, complex roofs with multiple slopes, dormers, and metal flashings that deserve careful documentation.
  • Cornell and Cathedraltown rear lanes. New Urbanist street layouts put garages on rear lanes — meaning rear roof slopes are functionally invisible from the street. A drone covers the whole envelope in one flight.
  • Estate-property scope. Bayview, Buttonville-area, and Thornhill-side estates often have multiple connected outbuildings and complex roof geometry. Estate-tier pricing reflects the scope.
  • Buttonville Airport airspace. Markham's central core sits in former CYKZ airspace and remains in CYYZ control. Transport Canada Advanced RPAS certification is required to fly there legally.
  • 48-hour reports with SD card. Raw 4K imagery on a physical card included on every job.
  • Mon–Sat bookings. Saturday slots available for owner-occupied homes.

Common inspection scenarios in Markham

What property owners and trades typically commission us to document.

Rear-lane housing roof surveys

Cornell and Cathedraltown's New Urbanist layouts hide rear roof slopes behind garage lanes. We document the full roof envelope — front and rear — in a single 30-minute flight.

Heritage home documentation

Old Markham Village and Main Street Unionville have homes with steep multi-slope roofs, copper flashings, and historic dormers. Aerial documentation captures detail no ground-based inspection can.

Estate & multi-building scoping

Bayview-corridor estates and Angus Glen properties often span multiple buildings — main house, coach house, pool house, garage. Estate-tier pricing covers the whole site in one mobilization.

Pre-listing inspections in luxury markets

Buyers in Unionville and Cathedraltown expect documentation. A pre-listing aerial inspection lets the seller surface and address issues, or disclose them honestly with imagery to back the disclosure.
