Drone Survey & Photography
Aerial inspection of roofs, chimneys, and hard-to-reach areas using the latest drone technology
What is a Drone Survey & Photography?
Our drone survey service uses the latest UAV technology to provide detailed aerial inspection of roofs, chimneys, guttering, and other hard-to-reach areas of a property. Where traditional inspection methods require scaffolding or ladders — adding cost and delay — a drone survey delivers high-resolution imagery and video quickly, safely, and cost-effectively. All drone operations are carried out by CAA-authorised pilots.
Is this survey right for me?
Ideal for buyers or owners who want a close inspection of a roof or chimney without the cost of scaffolding. Particularly valuable for larger properties, listed buildings, or any property where access to the roof is difficult. Can be commissioned as a standalone service or as an add-on to any of our survey products.
