Founded in Airdrie. Still run from Airdrie.
AyeInspect started with one drone roof surveyor in Airdrie who was fed up spending longer writing reports than flying roofs. We still work from here, and Airdrie and Coatbridge are the roofs we know best.
AyeInspect is a mobile service-area business founded and based in Airdrie. Our pilots travel to you — there is no walk-in office.

Our roots
Why a roof surveyor in Airdrie built this
The flying was never the problem. Getting a drone up and photographing every elevation of a roof is the straightforward part. It was everything afterwards — sorting images, marking up defects, wrestling with Word templates — that ate the day.
The inspection software that existed was built to cover every industry at once and priced for national firms with big teams. For a small, family-run business in Lanarkshire it made no sense. So we built the thing we actually wanted: software that understands roofs, and nothing else.
That software now powers our own homeowner surveys across Central Scotland, and it sits quietly behind other trade firms' branded reports across the UK. But the base has never moved. We are a mobile service-area business with no walk-in office — our pilot travels to you.
Local knowledge
What we actually find on Airdrie roofs
One Airdrie street can hold three different roof types. Here is what comes up again and again in ML5 and ML6.
Terraced runs and miners' rows
Older Airdrie terraces share one continuous roof plane. From the ground you can only judge your own section — from the air we photograph the whole run, so a slipped slate three doors down that is soaking your gable shows up straight away.
Hidden valleys and lead work
Where two roof planes meet, the lead valley is the most common leak point in ML5 and ML6 housing, and it is invisible from a ladder. We capture it square-on at high resolution.
Chimney stacks on stone stock
Victorian sandstone properties around the town centre often still carry original stacks. Cracked haunching and perished flaunching are routine findings here and cheap to fix early.
Exposed newer estates
The newer developments on higher ground towards Caldercruix and Plains take more wind than the town centre. Lifted dry-verge caps and loose ridge units are what we see most.
