Who we help

Drone services for UK industry

The same four services (surveying, volumes, inspections and media) applied to the specifics of your site and industry.

Construction & civil engineering

Topographical surveys give site teams a single accurate model to build from, while progress media keeps stakeholders updated without a site visit. We've supported HS2 for 6+ years, from early greenfield surveys through to viaduct completion.

Quarrying, aggregates & recycling

Stockpile and void volumes are measured from survey data, with tonnage estimated using an agreed material-density figure. We're used to straightforward aggregates as well as complex, mixed-material stockpiles at recycling sites.

Residential property drone inspection for facilities management

Property, estates & facilities management

Roofs, elevations and estate buildings are inspected from the air, without scaffolding or work at height, giving facilities teams a clear defect record. Repeat inspections track condition across a whole portfolio over time.

Aerial drone inspection of a solar farm

Renewable energy

Solar arrays and wind turbines are inspected from the air, flagging panel rows and blade surfaces for follow-up without isolating the asset or working at height. Inspections can be repeated on a cycle to track condition over the life of the asset.

What every sector receives

The same four services (surveying, volumes, inspections and media) applied to the specifics of your site and industry.

Highways traffic monitoring using aerial drones and elevated masts, Salisbury

Infrastructure & utilities

Highways, pipeline corridors and utility networks are surveyed and monitored from the air, producing CAD-ready plans and repeatable records along the route. Remote and off-road access is rarely a problem for our pilots.

Agriculture, heritage & leisure

Farmland and estates are surveyed for planning and land management, and heritage or leisure sites are filmed for promotional and archive use, including work at Caerphilly Castle, Tintern Abbey and St Fagans.

Historic sites also call for a more sensitive approach, and it's a capability we've built specifically for that: non-intrusive documentation, captured in high detail without scaffolding or disturbance to the fabric of the building. It's the same conservation-minded approach behind our restoration survey work at The Balmoral in Edinburgh, giving heritage bodies and conservation teams survey-grade records to plan restoration from.
