Our Services
Indoors or outdoors, at day or at night, a few inches off the ground or up to 400ft in the air, our drones capture stunning images and video from a unique viewpoint in a fast and cost-effective way.
Residential Property Marketing Videos
A video brochure with aerial footage provides buyers with a unique view of a property, its gardens and surroundings. We can add logos and text, internal photos and other footage as well as music, and provide you with a final cut in a variety of formats to suit your website and sites such as Rightmove.
Commercial Property Marketing Videos
If you are marketing a commercial property, aerial photography and videos will provide buyers or tenants with a complete picture. Aside from capturing the exterior of the property, we can cover everything from car parks, land boundaries and road access to loading bays and even internal warehouse space and racking.
Roof & Guttering Surveys
We conduct roof and guttering surveys quickly, safely and cost effectively with no scaffolding, steeplejacks, cherry pickers or HSE (Working at Height) issues to worry about. We provide high resolution stills and videos to help you identify any dangers or work required, and can include a surveyor's report if needed.
Infrastructure Inspections
There's only so much you can do from the ground to ensure all of your infrastructure and equipment is properly monitored and assessed. With a high definition drone video you can take a far closer look, avoid any issues and expensive downtime, and keep everything up and running – quickly, safely and cost-effectively.
Timelapse Progress Videos
We offer a bespoke timelapse video package for construction and civil engineering projects. An image is captured every 15 minutes and uploaded to our cloud-based server, and can be combined with other footage and images to create a compelling video that tracks project progress from beginning to end.
Our Approach
We appreciate that commissioning a drone photography, video or inspection project can be a little daunting, so we will work with you to fully understand your needs and guide you though the entire process, ensuring you of a smooth and enjoyable experience and a result that fits the bill.
We can provide you with photos and video straight out of the camera (for you or a third party to edit), or we can create fully edited videos for you including branding, music, text and graphics.
To get things started we need to understand your brief, including the location of the shoot, the proposed date, an outline of what you want us to photograph and film, and some details on how you would like your photos and / or footage to be supplied (untouched or edited).
We will then conduct an initial online pre-flight survey to see if there are any factors, flight restrictions or permissions that need to be considered. Please note that in order to comply with the terms of our CAA license, our pre-flight survey might need to involve a physical site visit. If the result of our pre-flight survey is positive, we will send you confirmation of the brief and our quote for the shoot and any post-production / editing required.
