Drone Services
Drone surveys reduce health and safety risks by eliminating the need to work at heights, offering a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional methods like scaffolding.
We use both GPS and FPV (First Person View) drones, combined with ground cinematography to create immersive video productions.
Our certified drone pilot, with GVC and A2 CofC qualifications ensures precision and expertise in every project.

Aerial Building Inspection and Surveys
Drone inspections are becoming the industry standard for safety, reducing the need to work at height (Britain’s leading workplace hazard) while offering a more cost-effective and time-efficient alternative to traditional methods like scaffolding and cherry pickers.
We offer a range of inspections across various industries, including but not limited to:
- UAV surveys with photographic schedules or video
- Building damage assessments
- Orthomosaic photos
- Interactive digital reports with 360 imagery
- Imagery for SoC and SoD (Schedule of Condition / Dilapidations)
We specialise in high-level aerial building surveys, using drones to access hard-to-reach or dangerous areas. This allows us to deliver high-quality imagery of roofs, cladding, gutters, chimneys, and towers, giving you a comprehensive understanding of the building's condition.
UAV surveys are ideal for routine roof / gutter inspections, damage assessments, solar panel checks, schedule of condition / schedule of dilapidation imagery, and creating a Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) plan.
Hybrid 360 Tours
- We specialise in producing high-resolution 360° interactive aerial panoramic photographs. These images can be integrated into a 360° tour, offering a complete visual of the interior and exterior of a building and its surroundings.
- With a bird’s-eye perspective, viewers can explore the entire area at their own pace, offering a unique and immersive experience that allows them to navigate freely and take in every angle of the property.
Corporate / Promotional Video
Video content is an essential element of any marketing strategy. We offer professional aerial filming and editing services, with the option to provide unedited footage for your own post-production needs.
Using a range of drone platforms, we combine creativity and technical expertise to deliver a tailored, high-impact video to captivate your audience. Our drones capture in 5.3K resolution with advanced camera stabilisation, allowing for seamless cropping without losing quality, even when rendering a 4k video.
We collaborate closely with you, offering expert guidance to create your perfect corporate video.

Sports / Events Filming
Aerial filming and photography with drones offers an exciting, immersive perspective that was once only achievable through costly helicopter or manned aircraft shoots.
We can help to promote golf courses, hotels, tourist attractions, stately homes, and sporting venues by capturing unique aerial footage. We cover events of all sizes, including sports, outdoor shows, carnivals, festivals, and concerts, offering a fresh aerial viewpoint.
We also provide raw footage for third-party production teams, PR, and advertising agencies for inclusion in marketing, media, or film productions.
Note: For events with over 1,000 attendees, CAA approval may be required.
