Drone Surveys & Aerial Inspections

Where safe and practical, we utilise drone technology to carry out detailed high-level inspections of roofs, chimneys, parapets, rainwater goods and inaccessible building elevations without the immediate need for costly scaffolding or mobile elevated working platforms. All flights are undertaken by a fully licensed, CAA-registered and insured drone operator, providing high-resolution aerial photography and video to support our survey reports.
