<h1 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">Roof inspection case study: Thomas Paine Hotel</h1>



<p class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">On 3 January 2020, Drone Imagery was asked to photograph the roof of the Thomas Paine Hotel in Thetford to help investigate possible leaks. The building’s roof junctions provided several areas for close visual review.</p>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center">Planning the roof photography</h2>



<p class="has-text-align-center">The inspection area was controlled and pre-flight checks were completed before take-off. A sequence of photographs recorded the roof from different viewpoints so the client could review the junctions and covering.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-1024x576.jpg" alt="Roof Inspection Case Study Thomas Paine Hotel Roof Line" class="wp-image-8937" title="Roof Inspection Case Study 2" srcset="https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-300x169.jpg 300w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-768x432.jpg 768w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-705x397.jpg 705w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Line-Thomas-Paine-Hotel.jpg 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Junction Pitch</figcaption></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">Features recorded during the visit</h2>



<p class="has-text-align-center">The photographs included a cracked chimney stack and a damaged roof tile requiring attention. These observations helped identify areas for further investigation; aerial photographs alone do not establish every cause of water ingress.</p>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center">How the imagery supported maintenance</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-1024x576.jpg" alt="Roof Inspection Case Study Thomas Paine Hotel Chimney" class="wp-image-8938" title="Roof Inspection Case Study 3" srcset="https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-300x169.jpg 300w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-768x432.jpg 768w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel-705x397.jpg 705w, https://drone-imagery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Roof-Inspection-Case-Study-Roof-Lines-Thomas-Paine-Hotel.jpg 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Roof Line</figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">Detailed views can help a property owner explain a concern to a contractor and plan closer inspection. Repair work and investigation of hidden components still require the appropriate skills and access.</p>
