Frequently Asked Questions About Drone Surveys

Real Estate / Property Drone Photography

Q:Where can you fly drones? A:Drone operations must always comply with CAA regulations, including obtaining the necessary permissions and adhering to no-fly zones or restricted airspaces. We manage all legal requirements on behalf of our clients and provide pre-flight paperwork, including risk assessments and method statements (RAMs), where required, for every flight.

Q: How can drone photography benefit real estate / property marketing?
A: Drone photography provides stunning aerial views of properties, showcasing landscapes, proximity to amenities, and overall size. This helps attract buyers by offering a unique perspective that traditional photography cannot capture.

Q: Are drone photos and videos legal for real estate use?
A: Yes! We operate with full CAA certification, ensuring compliance with all UK aviation laws. We have a range of drones, including smaller drones with a low weight and size category allowing us to get closer to properties than the larger drones.

Q: How long does a real estate drone shoot take?
A: Typically, a standard property shoot takes between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and complexity of the location.

Drone Roof Inspections & Surveys

Q: Why should I use drones for roof inspections instead of traditional methods?
A: Drone inspections are safer, faster, and more cost-effective than manual roof inspections. There’s no need for scaffolding or ladders, reducing risk and disruption while providing high-resolution imagery.

Q: What kind of damage can a drone detect?
A: Drones can detect cracked tiles, leaks, weather damage, blocked gutters, missing slates, and structural issues using photographs and video footage.

Q: Can I get a report after the survey?
A: Yes! We provide a comprehensive report including high-resolution images you can use to obtain quotes from multiple repair providers. We also provide links to view video footage.

Q: Can you quote for roof repairs?
A: Although we highlight recorded issues with roofs and associated areas, we do not currently have a roof maintenance department and therefore you would need to obtain your own quotes using the footage recorded. This allows you to contact multiple companies rather than being tied into the one who has installed scaffolding to check the roof initially.
